My pinhole camera is one that i made out of wood in highschool, and i recently just dug it out of my basement to play with again. It is pretty much just a sealed woodent box with a hole in it.
You could just use your slr.(you need a really tiny aperture hole covering the lense mount.)
Ive done it before with pop can aluminum or heavy black card board and attaching it securly with black electrical tape(and obviously place a hole in it, and then cover the hole with electric tape...)the tricky part is making the exposure without moving the camera.
(thats why i use wood...its heavy) You place it on a tripod
and set your shutter speed on bulb(B)
If you use an actual pinhole camera you have to load it in total darkness(unless you buy a fancy one...and they are out there). You can load it with actual film, i just use 35mm, or you could load it with photo paper.
If you load it with photo paper you then get a negative image rather than a positive, which means you have to reverse the image later(which im assuming you can do on photoshop).
If you use regular film you get normal negatives and develope it normally.
Now the big trick is...if you want to take it somewhere like walmart, you cant use black and white film unless it is designed for c41 chemicals.(kodak makes a really affordable version of this..i think they actually sell it at walmart.)
Keep in mind you can still use plain old colour film, it has a neat effect.Also, for developing outside your own home you have to leave it its canister. I shoot each frame separately, and cut it separtely, only because i develop it myself,and because you cannot wind a pinhole camera.
I suppose what you could do is purchase a reusable film canister(all photo supply shops have em)This way you could do a whole roll, and feed it right into the canister as you take them. (this is where it becomes a lot easier just to use a converted slr...because you can wind it and you dont have to worry about loading the film, or unloading it, or leaving it in or out of your canister...youre basically doing the same thing that you always do only not using a lense, and exposing way longer than you normally do.)
if youre interested in pinhole photography you could check out a few websites :

Hope i was able to answer your questions, if you have any more, feel free to ask!

Beautiful image! I'm thinking about making a pinhole out of one of my old SLR's and giving it a shot. What kind do you use? or is it entirely home made? Another thing.. what kind of film must I use, and can it be developed in a c41 process like at wal mart, or would I have to take it to a photo lab? I can't wait to try it when I'm off in Nov. Great image, 7+ from here!
