Use Your Imagination



I took a Jones Soda Co. Carbonated Candy tin, drilled a hole in one side, snipped a piece of aluminum from a Bud Light can and made a pinhole in it with a sewing needle, and taped it inside the candy tin. I cut a piece of 35mm film about 2 inches long, stuck it in the tin (in the dark, of course) and taped up the ends to make it light tight. Using a piece of black tape for a shutter, I went out and made this black and white image. Beneath it is the pinhole camera itself. The camera cost me only the $1.98 for the candy, which was pretty tasty.

Hi Paledaddy,

That is a really unique idea. It is awesome to see people using our product in such creative ways.
