And the idea that it can be controlled and built in the hands of the individual photographer is even more cool and empowering to me. I'm curious, it looks like motion blur in many of these pics. Am I right on this? I thought that pinhole cameras has infinite DOF, so I don't imagine that this is the source of the blur. Let me know! Also, could someone please post the original link on the design of these simple cameras? I fat fingered and deleted the original post from a week or so ago.
