Transporting the filmable pinhole camera prototype

I took the first version of the filmable pinhole camera system into my work place to test it under controllable light conditions. Where I work - Focus 24 - is based in Shoreditch, so taking the system on the train was interesting and lead to a few strange looks from other passengers.
I soon realised there may be some issues with the size of the camera system and how this may effect our schedule during filming. Mounting the pinhole camera system and the EX1 camera together could potentially pose further issues in terms of space to film in as I now know the distance between the EX1 camera and the image plane - unlike as I first drew in my sketches - has to be at least four feet to enable focus.
