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).

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.


Does a Pinhole camera reverse the image as well as invert it?

No


Image formed by a pinhole camera?

Pin holiday camera light travels in straight lines


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.


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


How can an image through a pinhole camera be made sharper?

Make the hole smaller.


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).


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.


How does a sensor chip work in a pinhole camera?

In a pinhole camera, a sensor chip captures the light that passes through a small aperture (the pinhole). When light rays enter the camera, they project an inverted image onto the sensor chip, which is sensitive to light. The sensor converts the incoming light into electrical signals, which are then processed to create a digital image. This process allows the camera to record the visual information captured through the pinhole.


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.
