Hey all. I was making a pinhole camera project at work and kept getting back uncool results http://oi40.tinypic.com/fz3wbo.jpg (sorry, i was mobile ). I only had highschool photo (2yr), and I can't remember how I did my pinhole assignment all those years ago. Needless to say, this current craft is kicking my butt. I'm running out of self-reliance, and if anyone can enlighten me that would be great
Here is the camera I've narrowed down to (after trying boxes of all sorts): http://oi41.tinypic.com/wl29w8.jpg. This pinhole was actually made with a paper clip; I got frustrated and the work day was almost ending so I was still testing. I used a proper needle for the first boxes.
The black pictures were exposed for ~2mins. The lighter ones at 5-15secs. The lightest one at the bottom was my test to see if my paper was bad.
I am using a brewed developer of 8oz water, 2 tsp instant coffee crystals, 4 tsp washing soda. I also tried 8000mg of vit c, but then I threw that developer out when I kept getting pitch black returns.
Stop bath of water:vinegar 4:1
Fixer is Kodak, all directions followed.
Anyone? Thanks!
