Zero Image 135 Basic Back to Nature Pinhole Camera is the world’s first and smallest multi-format wooden pinhole camera using 35mm film.

The 135 Basic Back to Nature Pinhole Camera has a 0.001″ brass shim. This precision pinhole will match up accurately with film stop numbers. In turn, this will create sharper images.

The Back to Nature series of cameras is made of solid brass and high-quality teak wood. And they have an eco-friendly hard wax-oil finish.

Every Zero Image pinhole camera has a serial number etched on a beautiful brass plate. This can be found inside the camera. As well as a signed certificate of authenticity in each box. In addition, you will find step-by-step instructions, complete with illustrations, on how to use the camera.

The Zero 135 cameras will need a spare 35mm film cassette to load your film with this model. Metal is best as the plastic ones are slightly too big.
