Pin12 - Medium Format Multi-Pinhole Camera

The Pin12 is a medium format pinhole camera with 3 individual shutters, offering 15mm rise and 15mm fall in a compact pocket-sized package.

Combining the design style of the Six12 with high quality laser-drilled pinholes from Reality So Subtle, the Pin12 offers ultra wide pinhole photography and the best possible quality. Weighing only 300g, the Pin12 is small enough to carry in a pocket, giving the creative freedom to enjoy pinhole photography anywhere.

With a 25mm equivalent focal length and 0.2mm diameter pinholes, the Pin12 has an effective aperture of F/125, making exposure times easily handled whether you've got it on a tripod or propped on a wall. The camera comes with a simple exposure table, allowing you to meter your scene with a standard light meter/app and read across to the required exposure time, retaining the ethos of simple enjoyment that a pinhole camera gives.

On the rear, there are two format inserts retained below the top plate so you always have them to hand when loading new film. Whilst the Pin12 is natively 6x12 format, the inserts can be used to reduce the frame size to 6x9 or 6x6 before loading the film, giving you complete flexibility without the risk of losing the inserts!

As well as triple shutters, giving 15mm of rise and fall, there are also three mounting positions for any standard 49mm threaded lens filter to be mounted, offering complete creative control (not included).
