This guy definitely deserves more subscribers... you put so much effort and it's clear that you have passion for what you do, awesome vid Joe!

[@RogersPhotographyOG]

You can't be disappointed with that for a first try.

[@jcmilleker5449]

Very nice. Happy New Year, Joe!

Been building some lumen cameras myself, got some binocular lenses and some lenses out of an old Kodak carousel projector. About to make myself some bellows soon to try and make a top notch version

[@moonolyth]

Love it!!!!!!❤. Where?What do you use for a timer? Shutter.

[@Joe_VanCleave]

It’s an old Radio Shack timer. But I also just use an analog watch with sweep second hand.

[@moonolyth]

@@Joe_VanCleave Hah! OK. Love your videos man

[@gregfeneis609]

Hi JVC, Happy New Year. That's a great looking rig. It's particularly pleasing that you can't hide how excited you are about the build as you explain it. I wish you would do a video about making those bellows. That art can be adapted to a variety of projects. Thanks.

[@Joe_VanCleave]

I'll be doing a bellows-making video soon.

[@BobSmith-dx9bj]

Bellows looks good. Maybe on the rear standard you could route a slot a few inch long and have a thumb screw from the bottom to tighten it up. The paper holder is a big problem. Good luck.

[@legofanguyvid]

how would you stop the bellows from folding at an acute angle?

[@mugahi00]

why dont you put the paper in the camera in the dark room

[@Joe_VanCleave]

You can, but don’t have to with lumen prints. It’s especially handy to reload out in the field without needing a large changing bag.

[@Lucky-tf4yf]

hello sir can you please make a video for who have no idea about pinhole photography on photographic paper, please sir it's a request

[@Joe_VanCleave]

I'll add it to the list of videos to make. Thank you for watching!
