Principle

The construction of pinhole cameras is fairly easy. Usually, for students it is a lot of fun constructing and experimenting with those. It is thus advisable to let them construct a camera for homework.
The advantage of the experiment with the pinhole camera model is that exact investigations of the conditions influencing the image quality can be performed.

Benefits

Multifunctional light box - All-in-one: Can be used for geometric optics on the table, colour mixing and on an optical bench
Extension with others sets at anytime, no additional light sources needed, recognition value for students

Tasks

How does a pinhole camera work? Construct a model of a pinhole camera and investigate the characteristics of the pictures taken with it.
