How photographer Malcolm Wilson converted a Yashica Electro 35mm film camera into a digital camera using a Raspberry Pi Zero 2W and Raspberry Pi HQ camera module.

Malcolm was inspired by a DIY camera video by. The video, seen below, goes through the process of building a DIY Raspberry Pi HQ camera with a mount for C and CS-mount lenses.

After gutting the Yashica, Wilson began adding new digital components. Beyond the Raspberry Pi and Raspberry Pi camera module, he added a USB port to the top to download images from the camera, a new shutter release, a 3D-printed front grip modification, a zoom button, and a rear touchscreen. Wilson has two lenses, the wider of the two is an 8mm f/1.3, which, given the Raspberry Pi HQ camera’s tiny size — 6.3mm x 4.7mm — is equivalent to a 44mm focal length in 35mm terms. The other repurposed CCTV lens is a 25mm f/1.8 .

Malcolm also uses 35mm lenses on his Raspberry Pi camera. To sidestep the 5.5 times crop factor, he repurposed a 0.7x focal reducer from a C-mount telescope and built an adapter to allow it to mount between full-frame M42 lenses and the C-mount Raspberry Pi camera.
