Paint Can Camera

The Paint Can Camera is simple as it sounds. You buy it, used it and develop it.

“Paint Can Pinhole Cameras for Creativity & Fun
The Paint Can Pinhole Camera is the simplest of cameras. Each can is drilled with a precision pinhole aperture (0.5mm), and is ready for immediate use. Just load a sheet of photographic paper or film and expose it! Available in both Quart (5″ H x 4 1/4″ diameter) and Gallon (7 1/2″ H x 6 1/2″ diameter) sizes with a magnetic shutter and a complete user guide enclosed. Because of its simplicity, the Paint Can Pinhole Camera provides room for experimenting and learning more about basic photographic processes. It is also just plain fun to use!

The Paint Can Pinhole Camera was developed and patented by Jim Kosinski. In 2008, Noted LLC acquired the patent from Jim and now manufacturers the cameras to his specifications. US Patent#6618556. Paint Can Pinhole Cameras are made in the USA.”

You can find where to buy on the website.

The Camera Club

Can you think what do you feel when you realise that something that you really want actually exists?? That’s what I felt when I first read about The Camera Club.

It’s quite far from me once that it’s in London. But it’s been a long time I’ve been asking myself why don’t we have darkrooms for rent. I even though of opening one of these. I mean, when you have a camera, like a lomo Spinner 360° and live in my city, you cannot develop it. First because the only place you still can develop film, they cut your developed film to put on that plastic thing and later they scan in a digital machine to print it.

Anyway. The Camera Club is a place for photographers. You can rent studios, darkrooms (and the chemicals) and other facilities. But this is only for members (you pay a fee per year to be a member). I think that if you have the chance, go for it and share with me the experience)

It was the day before yesterday, I was in my lunch time in a book shop, when i saw a little pink book in french (even knowing that my french is the world’s worst french). I was scanning it, but it was so funny, but SO funny, that I had to read it all. So here’s a book tip for you.

No joking. Now you can be a banksy (and more than once) through a vending machine. You can also buy it by sending an e-mail to shop@iartistlondon.com, but I think that the machine is much more attractive.

Yes, we did it! I just saw the carollainy’s stats for 2011 and that made me very happy. So, thank you all. I wish you all a very analogue new year. My resolution is to post more here, much more and each time getting more interesting stuff. Also, my new years resolution(s) are the same as everybody, you know? If you don’t, here’s an e.g.:

This nightlights were made by jayfish.

Oh yeah, this one I want so bad, that I am right now thinking which one of my cameras doesn’t work anymore and try to do it. If I do, I’ll post the DIY. =)

sorry guys, I was trying to write something of her story, talk about the photographys, but it’s freaking hot in here, so by now, I’ll leave her website, and later I write about her, ok?
