A pinhole and a camera both determine how much light comes through to make a picture, if there isn't enough light in you photo . The photo wont show.

What are the key components needed to create a pinhole camera film?

To create a pinhole camera film, you will need a light-tight container, a piece of photographic film or light-sensitive paper, and a small pinhole to let light in. The container should be able to hold the film securely and prevent light from entering except through the pinhole.


What are the release dates for The Pinhole Camera - 2008?

The Pinhole Camera - 2008 was released on: USA: 17 November 2008 (Santa Fe Film Festival)


How the first camera works?

The first cameras were pinhole cameras. They worked by the light from the image on the outside enters through the pinhole and flips it on to the film on the inside and the film captures it.


How does a pinhole camera work to capture images?

A pinhole camera works by allowing light to pass through a small hole (the pinhole) and project an inverted image onto a surface inside the camera. The image is then captured by the surface, such as film or a digital sensor, creating a photograph.


How does a pinhole camera work to capture images without the use of a lens?

A pinhole camera works by allowing light to pass through a small hole (the pinhole) and onto a light-sensitive surface inside the camera. The pinhole acts like a lens, focusing the light to create an image. The image is then captured on the surface, such as film or a digital sensor, without the need for a traditional lens.


Is the image on the screen of a pinhole camera back to front?

Yes, the image on the screen of a pinhole camera is upside down because of the way light passes through the small aperture and projects onto the film or sensor inside the camera. It is a characteristic of pinhole cameras due to the nature of how light travels through a small hole.


What camera came after the pinhole camera?

The daguerreotype.


How does the size of the hole in pinhole camera effect the quality of the image?

In a pinhole camera, the size of the hole has the same effect as the aperture setting on a more traditional camera. The size of the hole, combined with its distance from the film or sensor, controls the depth of field of the image and the length of exposure needed. Smaller holes will result in greater depth of field (to a point) and longer exposure. To compare a pinhole camera to a traditional camera, the distance from the film to the pinhole gives you the focal length, the size of the pinhole divided by the distance to the film gives you the effective aperture which can be used to determine the exposure needed. The reason that I included the "to a point" when discussing depth of field is that the pinhole must be in a very thin material and should be blackened in order to limit loss of sharpness due to diffraction. Diffraction also contributors to a loss of sharpness in traditional lenses when stopped down past f16 or so.
