Looks like a good product.

When you say that a 0.4mm pinhole gives a 90mm focal length, and a 0.5mm pinhole gives you a 140mm focal length, I think it would be more accurate to say that those sizes are optimised for a particular focal length - but you can use them with other focal lengths if you are happy with the results.

When I had an Intrepid it came with a 0.5mm pinhole, optimised for 140mm of bellows extension. But I was happy with the results at any bellows extension between 75mm and 150mm. I usually set the bellows to 90mm.

If you do this you have to recalculate the f stop by dividing the bellows extension by the diameter of the pinhole, e.g 90mm / 0.5 = an f stop of 180.
