There are a lot of web sites concerning pinhole photography over the world. In Japan one can obtain useful information from the web site of Japan Pinhole Photographic Society (JPPS). Various kinds of introductory books on pinhole photography and photograph collections are also obtainable easily at large urban bookstores or from internet mail-order shops as Amazon.
In this page we cite only materials which we referred directly to make the present site. Some of the books are now out-of-print but except of classical literal materials most of them are available at library or at secondhand bookstore. “Pinhole Photography” by Eric Renner is an excellent book which deals with pinhole photography comprehensively on its history, principle, techniques, and art productions. I consulted with the third edition of the book but now the fourth edition is available. As for the basic optics textbook we owed considerably “Hikari no Enpitsu (Pencil of Ray)”-series by Masao Tsuruta, though, unfortunately,it is written in Japanese.
