Looks very good and it takes good wide angle shots.  It makes me wonder why i am spending all my money on wide angle lenses. When all I need is some paper!

Interesting concept. 

Watch out, printing the camera takes a lot of black ink. 

adorama.com sells B&W film -- including Ilford ...
(after the page loads, please refine the search by
checking 'Ilford', '35mm', '100', and clicking 'Search')

Film cost is $3 to $5.

David - try this.  Or just google "dslr pin hole camera cap" and see if you can find a UK supplier - might be something interesting to have a go with, and is a whole lot cheaper than any lens :)

If you go the lens cap direction, I suggest putting a spare UV or other clear glass filter over the hole.  Dust bunnies get through the smallest holes..as I discovered.
