Hi Bill,
I have the feeling you may have already explained this, but how do you
make your pinholes? Do you have a link to photos you've taken using the
E-1? I've been tempted by the process for a while and adding a suitably
pricked body cap to the camera bag sounds easier than carting round a
biscuit tin with a sheet of paper in it. I'm sure that old world
approach is probably more rewarding and truer to the spirit of the
pinhole thing, but I ain't gonna do it, I'm sure.
