About Ranica
My name is Pavel, and in 2017, in Brest, I founded Ranica – a brand dedicated to the art of pinhole photography.
The philosophy behind my camera creation is based on three simple principles: structural simplicity, minimalism, and utilitarianism. It all started with square plywood cameras for photographic paper, but over time, my idea evolved into a full line of models for various formats.
Every camera you see in this store is my personal project from start to finish. I personally design, hand-assemble, and test each model myself. This is a true one-man workshop where I pour my attention, care, and passion for analog photography into every product.
For me, Ranica is not just a brand, but a part of my life, and I'm happy to share it with you.
