DIY Camera

Filed in archive Cheap Travel Tools on June 13, 2006

Nothing lets us share our vacation stories better than the pictures we have taken during our trips. And with the current technology, we are given so many choices on how we share these photos.

Tips for Taking Better Vacation Photos can be found all over the web. All you need is google and voilá, you can take your pick from all the advices available.

With what is available today, you'd think that everyone does the same. However, there are quite a few people who do not take pictures while on vacation. Some may be hiding something or are just not the type who'd want to keep photos as souvenirs. And then, sadly, there are those who just do not have a camera. Well, some do borrow from friends or family whereas others just buy the disposable type.

But what if you cannot get a hold of one?

Thanks to Linatree, you can actually make one!!! They have made the first downloadable pinhole camera which you can print out, cut and assemble.

"A pinhole is a camera that uses a very small hole, as if made by a pin instead of a lens, for light to enter and form an image on the film or other light-sensitive medium...

You can use a PAN film from Ilford or Neopan 100 from Fuji. You can also use any 35 mm film."

Isn't that great? Truly a cheaper option.
