made a telephoto pinhole lens out of a film canister with a hole in it held up to the pentax q. gotta figure out a way to attach it to the body without outright taping it on so i can take more practical photos with it.

quality-wise this is probably all i'm gonna get, since the q's sensor is so teeny tiny. (although there are optimizations that could be made in regards to the size of the hole vs desired resolving power and desired light).

one of the bigger restrictions on this setup is that the q can only expose for 2sec max on the electronic shutter so there is an upper end on how small the hole can be to get any picture at all.

@(: the watch is the max 2sec exposure at max 6400 iso, but thats just under my desk lamp. the trees and sunset were able to be shot at faster shutter / lower iso, so it seems like my pinhole is at a pretty alright spot for exposure on the Q

very glassy surreal look. how long do you need to expose the sensor to take such pictures w/ your pinhole?

it doesnt look like this at all in person
the dither goes silly on this one (first image dithered gif second image jpg)

dead end of mall. behind a fairly busy intersection. we sat on those little tables staring forward at the plastic wall for about an hour. many passersby were confused, concerned, scared, or just plain amused. we didn't really mean to commit to the idea for so long it just sorta happened.

28mm 2.8 manual focus k mount its capable of being p sharp
