It's harder to take photo's with a pinhole camera because you

A.) Have no way to know how much light you need to properly expose the photo. That is of course, unless you're using a very refined pin hole camera where you know the aperture size and ISO of your film, two things most pin holes do not have.

B.) Because exposures are longer, it's more likely for the camera to shake and you end up with a blurry photo.

Really, the biggest thing is getting the correct exposure
