6X6 MIA PINHOLE CAMERA

[@randyreitenauer]

What a fun day you showed us. Thank you, Molly. I'll need to see if I can find that old Quaker Oatmeal canister pinhole I used years ago.

[@Eclectachrome]

Thanks Randy!! Yes please do, would love to see it!

[@theoldcameraguy]

Very cool images - I have yet to do any pinhole stuff, but I’d like to try it someday.

[@Eclectachrome]

Thanks Dave! It's so fun!

[@NunoAlmeidaPhotography]

It's important to have fun with photography and cameras like these seem to do the trick just fine :) Love the results!

[@Eclectachrome]

They sure do! Thanks for watching Nuno!

What a cool little camera! It takes some really ethereal images. Love the banter between you and Mike :) the friendly competition is very cute. Loved the images, it was like you two were on a date with a camera, especially with the tunes!

[@Eclectachrome]

hahah I did select the music because it did feel like that! when you marry a photographer.....lol thanks for watching Pete!

[@AntMcLean]

Oooh now I have another want! I was really surprised how good they turned out! The mono was a great choice for me

[@Eclectachrome]

haha the list grows! Its surprising they turned out at all but there we are, film magic!!

[@thefilmdaddy]

Loved this! I have only ever shot pinhole cameras once in like a school experiment I think. Loved the shot of the Ferris Wheel! Looking forward to the Gold 120 in this bad boy.

[@Eclectachrome]

thanks so much Brendon!! That was my favorite :) Ah the Gold shots came out much better I think so exciting to do more videos with this camera :)

[@AlexLuyckxPhoto]

That pinhole looks super cool! I will have to pick one up! I recently finished building the Goodman Scura 6x6, it’s a good camera but frustrating in some aspects but provides a good image and experience! Excellent results!

[@Eclectachrome]

I saw your video on that which was super impressive the way you built it! I found pinhole so fun and love the look too. thanks for watching!! :)

[@tomttl]

Min 4:57 is my vafourite shot! This is such a cute camera, love the wooden look!

[@Eclectachrome]

Thanks!! It is super light 😊😊

[@ilperfezionista]

Well done Molly! As a very first attempt you did very well. As I said, go closer! 😊 in my experiments i the past, I found out that the combo cinestill mono bath and Foma, was not my favourite. I’m sure that if you try some ilford film and a “more conventional” developer, you would get more pleasant results. Anyway, congrats 😊

[@Eclectachrome]

Thanks Andrea!! hahaha even though you said it, and I thought I was close enough, you are so right, its still not close enough!! I will have fun though getting closer and closer each time I think. The combo with mono bath and foma is a good starter for me, but I will definitely try other combinations as I go, I usually use Rodinal but have some 510 pyro, so maybe some Ilford Delta and 510pyro? :) :)

[@ilperfezionista]

@@Eclectachrome anything else is better to me but that’s my taste really. I like the combo Fp4/pyro

[@mollyanderson449]

Loved these shots!!i’ve been wanting to try pinhole for so long, but haven’t got around to it yet…

[@Eclectachrome]

thanks Molly!! :) It's so much fun and definitely should try it!

[@EdwardIglesias]

Excellent shots! Really nice feel. As for voting, sorry Mike. You fingered the lens hole thingy.

[@Eclectachrome]

thanks! hahaha he quite enjoyed the mini challenge :) but yeah, although perhaps fingers in the lens might be a new aesthetic?

[@scottraymond4801]

Were you representing a “New” Hampshire sweatshirt under your hair? My home state since i was eight. Sending Lakes Region love to the channel! Film photographers unite!

[@Eclectachrome]

You bet! That's my home back in the US - have spent many a time in the Lakes Region. NH is the best :) (ok I'm a little biased) Thanks so much!!

[@lilkngstr]

Looks like it was a fun day out and some cool shots. You missed out on calling it "my MIA".

[@Eclectachrome]

thanks for watching! it was so fun, and something that photographer or non-photographer can do together which is nice. Ohhh like Mamiya? or is it a reference to something else (my mind is blank haha)?

[@peterr.c.k.8057]

Thx for another great video. I own a french Lerouge 135 wooden pinhole camera but I am not yet really familiar with it. I'd like the images to be sharper & more contrasty. Sometimes I wonder if 135 is the right format for PH or if 120 simply works better. Anyone?

[@Eclectachrome]

thanks for watching!! Oh that sounds lovely. Interesting question, I haven't shot 135 with pinhole yet so would be interested if anyone has compared to two. I am planning to though as Andrea kindly included the 35mm adapters for me :)

[@ilperfezionista]

Hi Peter, personally I don’t like very much the look of pinhole in 35mm. I think that medium format suits it better. Although, I have to say, if you print the 35mm negative on paper, would looks nice. The problem I see is the scanning process.

[@ilperfezionista]

The sharpness depends from the quality of the pinhole and from the dimensioning of the camera

[@blutac318]

Beautiful shots! I’m very impressed by the camera… less so by Mike’s attempt, I’m afraid. Got to give the points to Molly on this occasion.

[@Eclectachrome]

hahaha to be fair, I could have told him to watch his fingers, but he was so confident about doing it himself! we had a great laugh when I processed the negs :D

[@blutac318]

@@Eclectachrome Could have told him, but where would have been the fun in that! It does seem a great fun camera to use, though!

[@ivankochetov9983]

It's sharp.

[@Eclectachrome]

thanks for watching Ivan!
