DIGITAL PINHOLE

A small aperture allows light to enter the “box” and the inverted image is projected onto the opposite wall from the opening.

A simple explanation of how a camera obscura works, which is the principle of photographic cameras.

Pinhole cameras consist in a camera… without lens! It is actually, a light proof box with a small opening to allow a “controlled” entry of light.

In analog photographic cameras, the image is shown on a photographic film.

In digital cameras, it is the electronic sensor that receives the image projection, not the photographic film.

In the digital pinhole technique, a handcrafted device is placed on the body of the digital camera, where the lens should be. It is in this device that the pinhole is located, which allows the entry of light.
