Why is the screen in a pinhole camera translucent?
A focusing screen in a pinhole camera? Uhh...no. A pinhole camera is a box with a very small hole in one end of it and a piece of film in the other end. The screens in reflex cameras and in view cameras are translucent to give the image something to form on. The light will pass through a transparent screen without forming an image, and it won't go through an opaque screen at all.

What is difference between transparent and translucent?
Transparency is defined as a quality an object has that allows light to pass through it and any objects on the opposite side can clearly be seen through through the transparent object. Translucent objects still allow light to pass through them, but the objects on the opposite side are not clearly visible. It could be likened to two pieces of glass. One is from a window and the other is frosted. The one piece from the window is transparent, and the frosted piece is translucent

What is an example of translucent and transparent?
"Translucent" means that the light is diffused and scattered when passing through a material; for example, a piece of paper that has been lightly oiled with machine oil, butter or WD-40 will allow a lot of light through. But you wouldn't be able to see anything through it. "Transparent" indicates that most of the light will pass through the material, and that you can see a clear view of something; for example, a pane of clear glass.

And opaque completely blocks the light, like a book would or a piece of steel.Highly pigmented materials would be opaque. Milky quartz is translucent. Transparent is things such as calcite, clear quartz or emerald, and most glass.
