So I'm guessing here you cut out the center of the body cap and put
foil over the hole, then poke a pinhole in the foil?

I used pinholes in chem class and they were really fun, so I might
give this a try.  I have well over $50K of digital camera equipment at
my complete disposal, and I've always wanted a Holga to shoot really
crappy pictures.  I also have an M3 and want to drive a Scirocco.  Go
figure.
