Polaroid + Pinhole = Pinholaroid
A lot of pinhole photography stuff recently, but that’s because it’s cool, yo!
My old mate over at PhotoThoughts keeps coming up with these groovy, outlandish camera mods, and I love him for it:
I picked up a Polaroid camera for $1 at a garage sale thinking I could add a pinhole and have a pinholaroid. I didn’t find any good online tutorials, and feeling confident after building my digital pinhole camera, I decided to figure it out as I went. Keep reading to learn how to turn a cheap Polaroid camera into a cheap polaroid pinhole camera…
Check it out, it’s worth a read, even if you have no plans building one of these yourself. On the other hand, you can pick up polaroid cameras for next to nothing nowadays - why not give it a shot?

Hey, thanks for the link! I am glad you enjoy my camera experiments! I backtracked to this entry after I saw my Polaroid experiment show up on MAKE. Thanks, again!

Wow, I’m going to have to try this one!
I drilled a hole in an old lense cap and attached a square of aluminum from a can with a pin hole on the inside and attached it to my slr. The results were pretty good.
