Hole-On Ex

My friend Bennett gave me the perfect gift last weekend. He found a pinhole camera kit at a bookstore and past the treasure on to me. It is called a Hole-On Ex (don't ask me why) and it is pretty easy to put together. The instructions say it only takes 2 hours, but that seems a little unrealistic. I used Elmer's glue, so maybe you could save some time with a faster drying glue!
In my haste to test it out, I forgot to reinforce some of the walls with the included black paper. After wasting a roll of 35mm film, I used my aluminum tape to be extra sure there weren't any leaks. The Hole-On Ex is a welcome addition to my ever growing camera collecion.

I'm not too particularly fond of the thinness of the cardboard construction of this camera, but it is quite interesting. It took me an hour or so to build, but I agree about the glue. I tried using doublesided tape instead but that kind of went messy. Check out the Japanese P-Sharan PP35. That one is a winner :)
