Label TextThis pinhole camera was created as part of a school project by Elizabeth Combes, a Fanshawe College student, in 1976. A pinhole camera is a simple device with no lens, but a tiny aperture - the pinhole. Light passes through the aperture and projects an inverted image on the opposite side of the box, which is known as the camera obscura effect. The image can be projected and exposed onto photographic film and paper.
