We noticed a general increase in image quality with increasing pinhole size. However, there are a number of other issues. One is that the hole for the lens was slightly too large and clearly allowed light into some of our pictures, resulting in bright spots. Additionally, the shopping bags we used in leiu of black paper can be seen in some of the pictures.

Additional Images

Taken with the best size, which we found to be 5mm for our setup.
