Pinhole photography : rediscovering a historic technique
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

As cameras become more predictable and as digital photography increases our ability to manipulate visual reality, more and more photographers are rediscovering traditional artistic methods. A comprehensive how-to-guide, Pinehole Photography is both an entertaining illustrated history and a practical handbook for this unique photographic technique. Eric Renner brings to life the fascinating history of pinhole use in science and art. Thorough, easy-to-understand chapters explain how to create pinhole cameras and images and how to manipulate pinhole images using a variety of photographic processes. More than 170 photographs and illustrations show the many types of pinhole cameras and the breathtaking images that can be created using them. A portofolio of images from the 1960s to the present, a source guide to suppliers, and an optimal pinhole diameter chart ensure that this intuitive, one-of-a-kind photographic method will continue to flourish.
