many cameras have remote control accessories so why not convert the camera to pinhol rather than building or adapting a remote control for a pinhole camera.

 

However if you turn your hotel room into a pinhole camera I guess you would have to take the photo remotely.

I am asking because a friend of mine wanted such a device and I made him one (based on an inexpensive radio controlled toy car) but now am wondering if anyone else might be interested in such a thing. Opinions??
