Ranica MIR 6-4 In Olive
Description
Because everyone asks how these cameras work, it’s probably best to start with a simple explanation: A pinhole camera, or camera obscura, works by using a small pinhole to project light onto the film. With no lens involved, the camera has infinite depth of field, meaning everything stays in focus with a soft, dreamlike quality. If you're looking to capture photos that are a little unpredictable and unlike anything you'd get with a smartphone, this camera offers that experience. Without a lens, you can expect photos with a distinct, ethereal charm.
This handmade pinhole camera uses standard 120 film in a 6x4 format, creating images that are 6cm tall by 4cm wide. Thanks to the larger film size of 120, you can capture around 15 shots per roll in this compact format.
This camera is mercifully free of screens, batteries, or cables. You wind the film and open and close the shutter yourself, adding to the tactile experience of each shot.
Equipped with a standard threaded hole for tripod mounting, a proprietary three-position shutter, and a 0.15mm (F=176) pinhole (look closely because it's small), this camera offers a very hands-on photography experience.
