Today is Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day and I’ve been out snapping with my Ondu 6×6 Pocket Pinhole camera and Fujifilm X-mount fit thingyfy Pinhole Pro S ‘lens’ mounted on my Fujifilm X-E4.

This particular location has appeared on this blog a couple of times before, here and here and will no doubt do so again…

Nikon Zoom 310AF QD, Nikon Zoom 35-70mm f/3.5-6.5 at 70mm – Kentmere Pan 400
Developed in Ilford DD-X at 1:4, 11½ mins at 20°c.

I had this Nikon Zoom 310AF QD in the drawer for years but only in January did I put a roll of film through it!

I’m quite pleased with the results, the lens is sharp (or sharp enough) and the exposures all look fine…

A camera to use more often I think!
