For my first Action 1 Project in my Light and Sound class we created pinhole cameras, and created our own pictures. In our unit of light we learned that a camera is just like the human eye. The lens is our eye lids and and everything we see is sent through the octave nerve to the brain and or the film. The focus of our eye is triggered by how much light we see and don't see. When we see less light our pupils dilate and try to get as much light as possible. But when we see a ton of light our pupils become real small. I am most proud of my project because I had the chance to create my own camera, and actually take a picture with it too.
My device captures light by the sun shining through the little lens and whatever is under the camera will capture the picture. It also demonstrates the key science principles by showing that the color spectrum from the sun rays can shine into my lens and then make the picture appear onto the photo paper. One piece of information that helped me inform my project is when we had a FE and Derek Weber said "cameras come in all different shapes and sizes, but will always produce a picture." Most cameras have an adjustment on shutter speed nowadays, but my shutter speed varies. It can be depended on however long my image takes in the sunlight. Also if I can do anything differently in this project I will somehow use a thinner more colorful lens and see if my picture comes out to be different.
