I have tried something like that.
But my results were real cr&p so far.
I will stay tuned, though...

Well, we're here not only to produce masterpieces but also to compare and learn, so why don't you post some results and explain what you did?
You may have experience = 1 on that, but for instance, I have experience = 0, so there will always be something to learn for somebody! _________________ _

Today I made a pinhole camera using my E-300, piece of cardboard and alu foil. I haven't experience with pinhole cameras, everything was totally provisional
Results from first hole weren't good. I know, this picture is overexposure Very low contrast and sharpness:
Second hole was also bad... Poor results:
Third hole was a bit better Good contrast, but poor sharpness.

Are you shooting with a tripod?.
The third and fourth ones are very good...

Yes, I used a tripod and self-timer.
In the photos you can see many dirt spots. When I take pictures with normal lens, this problem doesn't exist
Digital pinhole camera is good for macro with DOF from 0 to infinity (but IMHO the angle of view should be wider). ISO 200, 4 sec:
Interesting results with long exposure, also in sunny afternoon. ISO 200, 10 sec:
I'm going to make better pinhole  _________________ Regards,

Here's my first attempt at pinhole photography, using a pinhole in a section of aluminium drinks can covering a larger hole drilled in an old body cap.

A few more taken with the same pinhole:
Colour and contrast are fine but sharpness is very poor - I think that means the pinhole is too big. _________________ Regards

Hubert, really like that last picture, very unusual but nice effect.
Steve, like the shots of the French press set and hammock detail!

Well, congratulations. None of my awkward tentatives of doing pinhole with my digital reflex has ever come out so sharp.
