An image made with a pinhole camera can first of all be affected by how much light the paper is exposed to. The longer you keep the hole of the camera uncovered, the more the light will reach the paper, thus affecting how much of an image will be created. If you expose the paper too briefly, the paper might not get exposed enough and as a result when you try to develop the picture there will either be no image or a very faint one. However, if you expose the paper for too long, the image could end up too dark.
If there are any areas where light can leak through the camera, that can result in the image being ruined and turning black.
The size of the hole might also affect the image. If the hole is not quite big enough, there will not be sufficient light for the paper to be exposed and an image formed. Make sure that the hole is just the right size (the size of the tip of a pin).

∙ 13y agopin hole camera's image is changed as you see yourself in mirror it seems left to right or right to left so this same thing is with the pinhole camera as a light enters in pin of the camera upper rays goes to the down and the down rays goes inside the pinhole camera so this is how the image is upside down.

Pinhole camera and human eye similarities?
I think a pinhole camera is similar to the human eye because like the pinhole camera when it sees something it reflects the image but it is an inverted image. With the human eye the brain corrects it and turns it the right way up. The pinhole cameras image is not corrected because it does not have a lens.
Image formed by a pinhole camera?
Pin holiday camera light travels in straight lines
What will happen to pinhole camera if the object distance is equal to image distance?
the image distance will appear the same
How can the image in a pinhole camera be made bigger?
a pinhole camera has a very small aperture for the light to pass through. Thus the sharp focus distance is very great too. You will get a bigger image if you move your paper or whatever the image lands on, further away from the pinhole.it may not be as bright, though
Why are images upside-down in a pinhole camera?
You can figure out why an image in a pinhole camera is upside down if you think about how the light travels to get to the image. Light from an object higher (or the top of the object) than the camera travels in a straight line down to the camera. It goes through the pinhole and continues heading down until it hits the back of the camera. This means that the image of something higher than the camera is now low in the image. The opposite is true for light from an object lower than the camera (or the bottom of the object): it travels to a point higher in the image. Still does answer my question, how did the image get upside down? answer was no concusive.

Does a Pinhole camera reverse the image as well as invert it?
No
Is the image on the screen of a pinhole camera back to front?
No.
Why is the image formed by a pinhole inverted?
An inverted image is formed in a pinhole camera because the light rays coming from the top and the bottom of the object intersect at the pinhole.
Image formed by a pinhole camera?
Pin holiday camera light travels in straight lines
Why the image formed on the screen of the pinhole camera is inverted?
The image formed on the screen of the pinhole camera is inverted because the aperture, which is a small hole, bends the light that enters the camera. This basically shows that light travels in straight line.
What will happen to pinhole camera if the object distance is equal to image distance?
the image distance will appear the same
When you made the pinhole camera what way up was the image?
It would be upside down
Why can not we see upside down image of the sun?
You can - use a pinhole camera ( or viewer).
How can an image through a pinhole camera be made sharper?
Make the hole smaller.
What are the characteristics of images in a pinhole camera?
The image will be formed upside-down and reversed horizontally on the back of the inside of the camera.
