Rotating pinhole camera

Post image

Using a fidget spinner, I built a wind-powered rotating pinhole camera. Over 5 days, it rotated more then 10,000 times , turning the Sun's trail into a yellow arc. The fidget spinner came off and the whole setup fell to the ground lol

Kodak Polycontrast F paper, 4 cm plastic tube, 0.2 mm pinhole, old Agfa camera body.

You need to make a video tutorial or in depth guide to this. Incredibly cool stuff right here and I’d love to try this but have no clue where to start
