I read in shutterbug magizine today that you can make a pinhole lense for you dslr, but I was very confused on how. Does anyone know how to do this and care to share some directions to do so

see this thread for pin hole digital and this for DIY lenses

EDIT: note: my link to pinholes is not the same as Yura's

so then, this cap has a .011" hole for a Canon EOS camera..a 300D should work.

Equivalent to 50mm at F180...any mathematics on what the shutter speed would be IF the normal exposure was 1/60 at F5.6?

Any idea on DOF?

The field of view of this pinhole is the same as a 50mm lens. For a pinhole, Focal Length (which is really only meaningful for LENSES, not holes) is theoretically zero, so the DOF is effectively infinite.

The difference between f5.6 and f180 is 10 stops so................

1/60 @ F5.6 = 16sec @ f180

About 15 seconds according to one other site and this pinhole calculator.

Google is your friend. =)

btw, I bought my R72 Hoya IR filter from Freestylephoto.biz and had no problems at all. They were even great when I returned it because I wasn't happy with the results. True pros.

didn't see your post, i was already looking for calculators and typing mine up when you posted. Anyway, a link to the calc is helpful, hopefully, and it also proves that your mental math is dead on accurate =)
