This new book looks at the history of the pinhole camera. Traditionally the pinhole camera has been linked with the camera obscura, but this publication sets out to separate the two, to appreciate and understand both from their respective evolution as technical objects and from their creative potential.
The book's author, Denis Bernard, is a researcher, photographer and teacher of the history of photography and Associate in Applied Arts.
