Pictured here is my shiny new Holga 120WPC, or as I like to call it, my "Holga Limousine".
This pinhole camera produces panoramic 6x9 or 6x12 negatives. There is no viewfinder, just a site on the top of the camera which (judging by my images so far) is not very accurate.
Since it is a pinhole (approx. f/133), long exposures with a tripod are required. There is an exposure guide on the back for 100 iso film indicating 7~9 seconds for "Fine Weather", 10~12 seconds for "Overcast", and 13+ seconds for "Morning or dusk".
I have wanted a panoramic camera for quite some time, and when you add in "Holga" and "Pinhole", I just had to bid for this on eBay.
Hereis my first image from this camera.
Nikon D40 with a Sigma 30mm HSM DC lens @ f/1.4, ISO 200, 1/60 sec, with a Nikon SB400 flash.

Or you could just make a pinhole camera out of an old oatmeal tube. . . that's what we did forever ago, and the results were anticipated at best.
