Pinhole blender trial run

File under Photography - by Susan M @ 4:05 pm

My parents got me a couple of pinhole blender cameras for my birthday. One lets you do three exposures that sort of overlap, and the film is curved, so everything gets distorted—pretty cool. Actually the other camera does the same thing but it only has one pinhole. The bigger camera has three you can expose all at once. See cameras here and here.

So I went to a park down the road and took a roll of film with the bigger camera. It sort of came out. My local film lab can’t print or scan the negatives because the images are so wide, so I just had them develop the film and I’m scanning the negatives myself. I can’t quite figure out how to get them to scan right. Color negatives are tricky. I think I’ve got the color settings figured out though.

I think this is probably the best image:

Here’s a few more:
