About this 3D model
"Who would believe that so small a space could contain the image of all the universe?" -Leonardo Da Vinci --- Designed for 35mm film, and super hackable, the PINHE4D (P4) puts the pure power of the pinhole in the palm of your hand! A secret known to the ancients, and found in the eye of the chambered nautilus: a tiny aperture can render the visible world! Photos taken by the P4: http://www.flickr.com/photos/theschlem/sets/72157635189094287/ I have created a __3D Printed Cameras group on Flickr__ http://www.flickr.com/groups/2263247@N20/ The mission is to share and promote open source cameras and related parts, created with CAD applications and 3D printing. Please join and post content! I've designed and built a few pinhole cameras - it's immense fun, but it can be difficult to duplicate what others have done successfully. Cut-out paper pinhole cameras have been "2D" printed in magazines (see LINKS), but 3D printing offers a substantial improvement over flimsy paperboard construction. I hope you make, use, and hack this camera for your own artistic endeavors. Goals for this project include: - fuctional pinhole camera and proof of concept - simple design / easy assembly - promoting development of 3D printed cameras - a hackable open souce photography platform - a library of (parametric) parts for homemade cameras - a useful and peaceful application for 3D printing technology - fun -- Shoot film, not bullets! Thanks to aubenc for the knurled surface library! I look forward to seeing how you evolve and iterate the PINHE4D. I plan to add an Arduino-controlled servo to the shutter for accurate exposure timing and a lens board for using optical lenses. Mostly prototyped in Tinkercad with some OpenSCAD spice: printed in black ABS on a Printrbot Plus at 0.25mm, 2 perimeters, 40% infill (tripod mounts at 70% infill) I found that two perimeters gave me consistent infill, ergo better strength, but 3 perimeters generated interior voids in some walls that might bend and crack. Cracks = light leaks = bad. ___ **ATTENTION** This work is licensed under the [Creative Commons - Attribution - Non-Commercial license](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/).
