The pinhole in APS-C mode. No vignetting, the typical softness of pinholes in this format. No need to make more pictures, you can guess what you get.

This is a cheap plastic pinhole device. It doesn't cover full format, you have to set your camera to APS-C mode. You can buy an E-mount version of it. There is no aperture setting and no focussing. The plastic mount wobbles, but is light tight. The results are very soft, which seems to be typical for 24x36mm format pinholes.
