That's it!
Put the cap on your camera and you are ready to rock and roll!

Some considerations:

The pin hole is extremely tiny and lets in very little light, you will probably be taking long exposures so don't forget your tripod.

The size of the hole greatly influences the clarity of your image. The first three photos below were taken with a larger pinhole. The last five with a smaller pinhole. Notice the difference.

We made our pinhole rig so its easy to swap out the foil. Go experiment! Try three holes in a triangle shape, or a tiny slit made with a razor. Be inventive, and above all . . .

Have Fun!
