No!Can I shoot my normal camera at f32? Manual of course.
Just do it.I got a laser drilled piece of brass last year to tape in to a lens board but never got round to using it. Maybe this year...
The aperture is for all intents and purposes f/180. Kodak's website for Tri-X suggests +1 stop where 1 second is indicated (ie. 2 secs). I usually use Ilford B&W where reciprocity doesn't kick in until > 1 sec.So since the hole diameter is 0.25mm and the flange depth is 45.46mm, am I right that the aperture is 1/180? So 1/125 at f/16 (a plausible exposure for a cloudy day like today) becomes 1 second, and reciprocity failure can take that up a bit, probably ignorable?
It depends how 'avant garde' you want to beThanks @Peter B and @adrianday
And a tripod. I hate tripods with a passion, but I guess it's essential for this!

I usually take a flask of tea. It staves off dehydration during the 20 minute exposures.And a tripod. I hate tripods with a passion, but I guess it's essential for this!
The lack of accurate framing adds to the fun of it. A spirit level is handy if you're shooting wide.Ooo-er, pinhole and intentional camera movement! I like it... rather throws out the framing thing, though. Just point in the general direction and wave about...
Thanks @Peter B and @adrianday .
I guess I can't frame with the pinhole on, so I either need to just point the camera by eye, externally, or presumably a 50mm lens would give more or less the same point of view. And if I put a 50mm extension tube, then I would be at f/360, and my 85mm lens would be reasonable?
