Step 2Hole For The Lense

Hole For The Lense
 By itself, this box isn't clear enough for taking picture. You'll need to cut a circular hole in it, and mount a piece of plexiglass/lexan/plastic/ as a lens. I used a hole saw...but a spade bit would work if you can find a large one.

WHEN YOU CUT YOUR HOLE: make it like 3 times larger than your camera's lens assembly! You can't make it too big! But you can make it too small... and that means you have a shadow around you video, called a vignette.

The hole in this photo was too small, so I later enlarged it.
