In the realm of creative photography nothing is more intriguing than the pinhole camera. There have been many design approaches utilizing various household items but none that we’ve seen thus far even come close to this particularly creative and useful design - The Panorama Pinhole Camera.

This baby uses 120mm medium format ROLL film which means you can take multiple shots without the bothersome task of opening and reloading after each shot as is the case with most pinhole designs. Just take your shot, advance the film and take your next shot. When you’re done take your roll of film to your favorite photo processing outlet and prepare yourself for some pretty amazing pictures.

Oh, this pinhole design is built completely from scratch so you do not need to scavenger parts from other cameras.

This is one of the BEST DIY projects we’ve stumbled across in a long time!

Another added benefit is data recovery of lost, corrupted, or deleted files.
