Skink Pinhole Pancake Classic Pro Kit for Pentax
|
|
|
・・tremendously creative ・・modular ・・valuable ・・versatile ・・
The modular Skink Pinhole Pancake System is the ideal addition to your DSLR / SLR camera and offers new creative opportunities to the photo enthusiast.
Pinhole disks, zone plates or zone sieves - also in combination with suitable filters can easily be swapped and installed between the retaining rings in the center of the Pancake lens.
Depending on the desired effect, you can use your camera as a pinhole-, zone plate- or zones sieve camera. To a high degree the installed aperture determines how your vision is creatively interpreted in rendering an image. The traditional pinhole creates relatively sharp images with exposure times ranging from one second to several minutes. With a zone plate or zone sieve however, photos can be taken without a tripod, if the lighting conditions permit higher speeds.
In comparison, images turn out softer with a painterly, impressionists' character. Highlight are emphasized and appear with a dreamy halo-effect, while darker areas seem to be pushed into the background.
The sample photos below were taken with various DSLR and SLR cameras, using pinhole, zone plate and zone sieve. Please visit flickr to see additional samples.

1. Skink Pinhole Pancake
The Skink Pinhole Pancake is handmade with high quality material.
- Material: black anodized solid aluminium
- with universal closure (center screw ring) for swapping pinholes, zone plates and zone sieves
- Maximum diameter of aperture disks: 20mm
- Focal length: 44mm (distance pinhole to film/ sensor)
- Angle of view with film: 52°
2. The Pinhole
As the most important component of the image forming process, the material, design and quality of the pinhole aperture need to meet several critical requirements to ensure highest image quality. This pinhole aperture is made of 0.03mm thin, high tensile strength steel substrate, mounted in copper disks with 20mm diameter. The laser drilled pinhole is perfectly round and burr free. The pinhole size is designed according to Lord Rayleigh's pinhole formula, matching the focal length (distance between the pinhole aperture and camera sensor).
- professional quality - made of high tensile strength steel substrate
- pinhole size: 300µm (according to Lord Rayleigh formula)
- aperture: f/147
- precision cut, Made in Germany
- delivers highest quality diffraction patterns resulting in sharper images
3. Zone Plate "classic"
was individually exposed on high-contrast film. For protection it is laminated and sandwiched between two copper plates with 20mm diameter.
- 13 zones
- Center zone: 0.3mm / 296 µm
- Zones in concentric rings: 6 (transparent ring-zones)
- Resulting aperture: f/56
4. Zone Sieve "impressionist"
was individually exposed on high-contrast film. For protection it is laminated and sandwiched between two copper plates with 20mm diameter.
- Center zone: 0.3mm / 296 µm
- Zones in concentric rings: 2 (transparant sieve-zones)
- Resulting aperture: f/93
