Created a camera that operates with clockwork

Korean designer Hyun-Quanjun that specializiruetsya on creating a camera obscure, have built a unique pinhole camera called Hеartbeat, which is operated by means of clockwork. The camera is made in retro style, so the background of any of the upgraded digital camera Heаrtbeat looks extraordinary.





Miniature camera collected master hand from copper plates and rings, and even an old mechanical clock. Like all pinhole cameras, Hеartbeat has no conventional shutter, instead, the camera housing there is a small hole – aperture through which passes light, which projects an inverted image.





Camera Hеartbeat assembled entirely by hand. To open or to close such aperture in Hеartbeat used rare clockwork Unitаs 6497, which is located under the glass in front of the camera. To make the, you need to set the exposure aperture, the head of the movement. Long exposure pinhole cameras provides higher quality images, so the clock mechanism can start on time from a few seconds to several minutes.
