The Pinhole Camera + Link


What are pinhole cameras? Pinhole cameras are one of the older cameras used and they work slightly differently than those other cameras you are already used to.
When you look through the eye of the pinhole, you will see the picture inside the camera itself, and the image will look upside-down. Sound like any camera you know? Yes, I'm sure your cameras do not take pictures upside-down, but pinhole cameras are super fun to make on your own!




Here's how:

You'll need...
- Empty Pringles chip can
- Marker
- Ruler
- X-Acto knife
- Thumbtack or pushpin
- Masking tape
- Aluminum foil
- Scissors (if you want them)
- ...a bright sunny day!

To make sure I don't copy all ideas from the original website I found them from, here is the link below that will help you with the steps to create your own. Have fun with it!

This is the link for making your own camera:
