Pinhole Camera
Swap technology for a lo-fi form of photography and make your own tin box pinhole camera.
These cameras roll back the years to when photography was a new science. Learn how to make a workable film camera using a coffee or biscuit tin from your kitchen cupboards.
Once you’ve built your camera, you’ll take some snaps with it and then learn how to develop paper photos in a professional darkroom.
