	Hi Charlie -

	It sure is. The last time I built a pinhole camera I
	used a roll of 110 film attached via rubber bands to
	a coffee can with an aluminum foil front that had a
	real pinhole (made with a real pin!).

	It worked great. Depth of field infinity, Wide angle
	performance, WOW.

	I believe that there is a newsgroup which specializes
	in pinhole cameras and technique. Have fun. Be patient,
	tell your subjects to hold still, the exposure times
	will be a bit longish.

	WOW. A Leica pinhole camera. Interesting.

	-- Wolfgang
