The end of the line
This is the first picture taken with the very Hi-tech GuinnessCam the image is nice and sharp for a pinhole camera and the distortion caused by the curve of the film looks great.
The picture was take at the abandoned wool store building Albany.
Technical guff
300micron aperture
Film Ilford 5x4 FP4

I have been thinking about making a curved film plane camera using plumbers pipes. Then why not test the layout by making a Guinness-Cam.
Stage one buy a can of Guinness and drink the contents .
Most of the can cameras use paper negatives, I didn't want it that easy..
Don't like the idea of paper negatives so some modification to the can will be needed, .
The focal length would only be 65mm if the pinhole was on the outside of the can . I wanted 90-95mm , so some creative woodwork will be needed.
