Slovenian industrial designer Elvis Halilović, who dubs himself “a passionate lensless photographer” is aiming to bring several sleek-looking wooden pinhole cameras to the masses through a Kickstarter project that has already exceeded its financial goal by over $20, 000.
ONDU 135 Pocket Pinhole: 35mm film, 25mm focal length
ONDU 135 Panoramic Pinhole: 35mm film, 25mm focal length, shoots 36mm x 24mm Leica format or panoramic double frames at 72mm x 24mm (FOV of 113°).
ONDU 6×6 Pocket Pinhole: 120 film, 25mm focal length, shoots 56mm x 56mm with an angle of view of 115°.
ONDU 6×12 Multiformat Pinhole: 120 film, 40mm focal length, shoots 6×6, 6×9, and 6×12.
ONDU 4″x5″ Large Pinhole: 4×5″ film, 60mm focal length.
ONDU Sliding Box Pinhole: Paper format 10.5×14.8cm, 50mm focal length (limited edition, 100 units).
Each camera is made from what is described as “locally harvested chestnut and maple wood”, and everything that requires holding is held in place with strong magnets. Each unit sports a natural oil finish.
Halilović explains that the purpose of this Kickstarter project is to raise funds in order to better equip his woodworking shop and to develop new ONDU models.
