BeanCanPanCam

This camera, the first one I ever built, found its name because the outermost cyclinder is made from a gallon paint can and the film is supported by a #10 bean can. It's pinhole (lensless -- which means it does not have the ability to achieve focus), and shoots onto 5.5" x 14" print paper. The lens aperture and the film plane are geometrically concentric so the aperture can revolve around the film plane. The markings on the base help to control the overlap of the exposures.

Examples of Images in the gallery are Liftline and Grain.
