    Robland, you'll have to keep us informed on this project. I also have been preparing for a similar camera build. I've got everything in place, just need the time and willpower. Mine "the plan" will be a pinhole camera at 20x24 format size. I will be using paper negatives developed in the Jobo 3063 tank, followed by contact printing. The only thing now is to design the makeshift camera. I would be looking for portability and a light-weight unit. A simple camera can be nothing more than a cardboard box, pinhole at one end, and paper on the other. The next level up from there would be two standards, one for the pinhole, one for the paper, separated by the appropriate focal length distance. I would stretch a flexible light-proof material between the standards. It needn't be permanent, and Velcro might suffice.
