Topic: Deconvolution for pinhole photographs?
Yes, I know this is a bit exotic - but/and perhaps one of you can see through whether what I have in mind is possible :-)
A very, very old photographic technique is based on making the exposure, not through a lens, but simply through a pinhole, typically a fraction of a mm in diameter. Somehow, it would be neat if we could combine this antique technique with a digital SLR + appropriate image analysis, wouldn't it to create nice and special photographs?
The bad news is that pictures you take with a digital SLR through a pinhole (in eg. a lens cap, without a lens) get very blurred by diffraction. The potential good news is that it seems that I would not be difficult to make an exposure of a point light source - which I assume should be a useful thing to have when attempting a deconvolution.
How could one proceed with this - ideas, anyone?
Kind regards
