How many megapixels is your bathroom?!

Great obscura! Out of curiousity, what sort of hole size was it?

Could you do it again, and paint it on the bathroom wall? Isn't that what they reckon Vermeer did? (Not in the bathroom :| )
Light definitely ruined the film as I didn't know it was in there, the back of the camera popped open an exposed it all anyway. Even if it had survived it would pretty much impossible l find someone who could process it.

Hole size was less than a 5p an it wasn't even round. Sort of a shrivelled raisin. :lol:

I could do it again but I think a certain amount of luck was involved to get such clarity, you can even see the weathervane :shock:

With a bit of maths and knowing how far away the church actually is it's possible to be able to control the outcome a bit more but I'm far too lazy :lol:

Or at least turn the image the right way around ;-)

Not if you within the camera within a camera are facing the original view and capturing the inverted projection ;-)

Cheers :D

Ok, second idea (For the slightly less lazy). Black it all out again, cover the hole. Get a red light and can of Silver Halide (or whatever they use) paint the bathroom wall. Expose. Paint wall again with Developer. Wait. Paint wall again with Stopper.... ;) (Ah, well. It seemed like a good idea until I started to type it. On reflection it just sounds like the sort of thing that they'll put in Mario Balotelli's obituary :( :roll: )

PS. For future reference, no one ever wants to hear the expression "Shrivelled raisin" :|

I'm confused Nafe, even numbers of camera will be right way, odd numbers wrong way.

You just said two cameras but previously quoted three! Unless you Kawa was thinking of me holding a camera and taking a picture of the camera in a camera. :huh: :lol:

This is getting complicated for what originally was essentially spam :lol:

This should help despite the terrible orientation and drawing :lol:

I have just cottoned on :lol: I don't think I would've worded it how you did but yes, that works theoretically but in practice I don't know. Of I do it again I will align the camera facing the pinhole, and see if it captures outside the right way :lol: it will be a Nafeman special.

Wait no I've changed my mind again, won't work because its flipped again by the SLR :lol:

Camera facing the hole of the first camera will work because that's then two flips.

Flippety flip.

I won't be able to sleep til I know if this works :lol:
