Even on larger formats. And - exposures tend to be long. I didn't comment, but someone on the list suggested using infra-red film with a pinhole. Sounds intereseting, but then a filter (at least for bw infra-red) is mandatory, and so exposure is bound to be even longer. The point I'd like to make in this respect is: one doesn't need a Leica to make pinhole shots! A shoe-box can produce just as nice pinhole pictures. Or nicer.
