Pinhole (lensless) Camera Photography

Over the past twenty years I’ve created a number of homemade pinhole (lensless) cameras. Some of the cameras I used were the SPAMera (which took 120 film), the MintyCam (a 35mm film camera made from an Altoids mint tin), a 6×7 and 6×12 ZeroImage wooden film camera, The MexiCanon, a rusted Mexican chili can that uses business card size paper negatives).
