E-Mount (Sony) Pixel Macro Lens

Intro

I wanted to make a lens that used no actual optics to make pictures! I started off by 3D printing a single-pinhole camera, and then got the idea of making a pixel art one. Then I stumbled across an awesome video by Luke Edwin that basically covers the exact concept I had! I recommend you give it a watch to see what he ended up with! I went in a slightly different direction, though, and continue to make different versions as experiments, so stay tuned. Hope you enjoy!

Instructions

Make sure to clean your sensor and lens of any dust, as it will obviously affect the final result heavily. Also, ensure you have plenty of light coming in or use a tripod and long exposure, as this setup requires a fair amount of light.

Heavily inspired by this lens from Luke Edwin!
