I could do this very simply, but I would rather have the pinhole fitted to an M-mount (possibly a couple to vary the focal length). This way I could switch easily from pinhole to regular lens. I know where I can get some laser-drilled pinholes in brass shim, and I have access to a machine shop where I would be able to make an M-mount. Has anyone done this? Are there diagrams somewhere (outside of Solms!) for M-mount fabrication? Have such mounted pinholes already been constructed? Does anyone else think that this is an interesting idea? -Charlie Charles E. Dunlap Earth Sciences Dept. University of California Santa Cruz, CA 95064
