Back in the late 1970s in Communist Czechoslovakia a magazine for teens called ABC came up with a great way to get cameras into the hands of kids–print them in the pages of their magazine. Check out that pic to the left, there, to see what a finished Dirkon looks like (roughly). Now check out David Balihar’s site Pinhole.cz to learn more about pinhole cameras and go here to download a PDF of this camera and instructions for assembly so you can take 35mm photographs with a pinhole camera!
Now, if they’d only update this design to take digital pics, then I’d be really happy!
