I built this camera and it is AMAZING. Tragically, no one in my area will let me use their darkroom to develop the prints and the guys at the photo developing places (Ritz, etc.) shrug and say their machines can't read the images. But never fear - the search goes on!

so long as you are using c41 film, the photo places should be able to develop the film. printing it will be a bit trickier, as the spacing between frames won't be as exact as it might be from a regular film camera. they may ask for a little more money to print from it, as they may have to spend extra time framing each image.

Also, you could try having them not cut the prints, and have them hand you just one lone strip - so long as their machine is not automatic. Search around for a professional-grade developer, it won't cost much more, but they are more versatile.

do not go to Ritz first of all, they have no idea what they are doing and have crappy machines. Costco or Sam's have the same machines and are half the cost, or go to a pro-lab, some are really expensive and others aren't as bad, in most cases usually worth the cost.

this looks wicked...but what kind of paper do you have to use to build the camera? is it normal paper, harder...or cardboard?

too small & messy to make. not practical. anything fancy doesn't necessarily comes good, anyway. i'll stick to my shoe box. :P

the extra bits like the little tiny stand doesn't really work. it's not stabled coz its not in the middle. but great effort for corbis to make up this site. it distracted me a few hours from my day!

if you guys are interested with something fancy yet practical, try Lego pinhole: http://www.foundphotography.com/PhotoThoughts/archives/2005/10/medium_format_p.html

oh when i go to the lab i ask for an index -it's about 5 by 7 sheet with all your pics in thumbnail size--usually black and white it saves time in trying to find out which pictures you want to get printed

Thanks for the advice, everyone! I got it all figured out thanks to MotoPhoto and uploaded two of the pictures here and here. I didn't actually build the "case" of paper which would be the entirety of the decoration. Instead, I cut out the exposure time square and pasted it onto the cardboard. Everything else worked reasonably well, considering I made it from stuff sitting around the house. Clearly I've seen much better pictures coming out of a pinhole camera but for practically $0, it's a fun project.

Can someone explain to me step 12? Do you just cut your own piece of cardboard to fit the width of the film and then wind it in? I am not seeing a template for that piece?

Hi! Can anyone tell me how to open tthe empty film canister? It's hard to open! Thank YOU!
Posted by: me on February 8, 2010
I was lucky and found a reuseable canister. Regular canisters aren't going to work. God to the local one-hour develpoment place and ask to sift through their old canisters and look for a cheap off brand canister. Grab all the ones you can. lol And ignore their looks.
