Pinhole is a VERY different process than what I'm used to. As "simple" as it is, I always found it a bit intimidating!

When I saw these beautifully crafted pinhole cameras by @ondu_pinhole, I knew I wanted to give it a shot. I even tried to take a 1-second portrait...fingers crossed! They also have a customized engraving option, which I absolutely had to take advantage of.

I shot some videos of my first pinhole shooting experience, and as soon as I get the results back, I'll be sharing that video and the photos.

This model is the 6x12 Multiformat, which shoots in 6x6, 6x9, AND 6x12! Of course, I HAD to shoot 6x12. The crew at ONDU are also offering you guys a pretty chunky discount of 30% for the 6x12 Multiformat! Just use code "mikeondu30" at ondupinhole.com! The code is good until November 23rd, 2017.

Oh, and another thing: you'll get a free "Analog Forever" ShootFilmCo lapel pin with the discount code, too!

I also listed ONDU in the Ultimate Gift Guide for Film Photographers, so be sure to check out that lisit!
