It means very good or excellent. The last time I used a pinhole camera was a device called a Ground Zero Indicator during the Cold War! :lol: It was shaped like a large white bread-bin with four holes at 90 deg intervals and tracked the position of the Sun on four sheets of photographic paper which had to be loaded from a light proof satchel at night. They remained in and went brown as the hours went by - no development needed. Luckily we never used them in anger - to locate nuclear plumes by triangulating the data derived from two or more GZIs and ascertain if they were air or ground bursts. It goes to show that the pinhole camera is still a very useful device.

You can see a picture of the exterior & interior via the link below, under 'Measuring Devices'.
