I have two Zero 2000's, a standard version and more recently a deluxe version. I also have the Zero 45 which has only shot half a dozen sheets... must make more use of it though.

I was getting pretty frustrated about it and bought a holga-pinhole. It works well enough, but is only 120 format and feels like cheating.

My aim was to make images with homemade camera, paper and emulsion. Still very much working on it. Frustratingly good fun.

I'm very glad this section has been started.

I was going to make a pinhole camera out of a rollie film box but out sidr forces steped in and offerd to purchase one for me. I could not refuse. It does feel a bit like cheating but I can over look that as the zero is such a well crafted bit of kit.

I have a Zero 2000 which I use a lot, the 25mm focal length on 6x6 works very well. I also have the Zero 6x9 model and a 10x8 pinhole camera but I don't use these as often as the 6x6 camera.

Zero 2000 multiformat, just going to dig it out and get around Newcastle whilst wife & daughter are in the shops. Looks cold and windy mind.

I have recently bought my first real pinhole camera a NOON 6x12 multi format camera.
It is a beautifully crafted wooden camera which just asks to be touched when not being used

I'd be careful that sort of thing could get you into trouble
