- My purpose of using the pinhole lens with Digital back is to eliminate glass lens surface flare artifacts. With the pinhole image there is no question of the authenticity of the captured personas. Mostly this is a personal reassurance exercise as the personas have been photographed by others before but I have no idea whether they are lens flare or not. The pinhole setup rules out the flare problem totally. This process is totally replicable by anyone with a digital DSR and the personas may be captured at any time of day for those who want a personal dose of certainty. The quality is OK for a pinhole [note second photo provided for comparison]. If the subject is centered resolution is acceptable. Took a few shots on tripod/remote release here's an occulted sun shot at 1/1000 sec, 9:30AM.
