    Abstract: A multiple axis pinhole camera has a base, a sidewall, a detachable cover, an inner surface, an outer surface, a support for holding a photographic material and at least one aperture. The pinhole camera is constructed from a paint can. The detachable cover is removed using a pry-type opener provided with the camera. Adhesive tape is used to cover the apertures. The apertures are located on both the sidewall and cover of the pinhole camera. The inner surface of the camera is coated with a chemically resistant light absorbing material such as a black epoxy paint. The inner surface also forms a curved image plane to support the photographic material. The support for holding photographic material can be an adhesive tape or mechanical support. The pinhole camera can be a kit that can hold the necessary components to develop a photograph.
