Nopo pinhole camera

Many of us know just how fun it is to play with Pinhole cameras; and we also know that they can be made out of many different things such as beer cans. So the folks over at NOPO have Kickstarted an initiative to create beautiful hand crafted wooden pinhole cameras made in Madrid. The cameras are made from birch, cherry and walnut wood.

Of course, they’re lensless–just like every other pinhole camera. There are a couple of different versions too!:

  • One taking 35mm film
  • One taking 35mm and shooting panoramic
  • One using 120 film
  • One using 24 exposure 35mm film
  • One 9×12 large format camera.

Exciting, right? They’re already funded but like any growing business, they can surely use more money especially if they’re supporting the analog community
