we got so lost on this hike, ended up riding in the bed of a stranger's pickup truck as a thunderstorm passed through
interesting observation, metering the pinhole at f/64 _over_exposes, so i guess the aperture is a little wider than that, or the highlight metering just becomes inaccurate at apertures this tight. need to test.
PINHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLE!
i am really loving the process of lugging around the tripod and really setting up the shot and exposing for like a full second in broad daylight all to get a photo that looks like this. it's quite cool.
my pinhole experiments return in the form of... just taping some tinfoil to the Q and poking a hole thru it with a needle thats wayyyy too high diameter (yet, tighter than my last attempt by a nice margin). the results? incredibly beautiful (especially in video! will share whenever i decide what to do with that footage).
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.
