this project is incredible, im considering attempting a similar retrofit on a yashica electro, though perhaps a dumbed down raspberry pi approach with smaller sensor. i'm very impressed with your fitting of an apsc sensor into this body
I’d love to have something based on a raspberry pi zero because it’s so small and a load of neat things could be done. The big drawback is that you’d have trouble to use the tiny sensor with its 5x magnification for meaningful photography. Unless the original “lens” is hiding an actual lens meant for the raspberry pi sensor within. But then you’d lose the rangefinder..
Seeing that APSC sensor with "NEX" written on it being dropped into a jar full of cornflour and shaken was the hardest thing I've seen in a long while :') Thanks for sharing your progress!
Thanks for watching! If I become successful in this I’ll hopefully get to ruin even more expensive cameras. That NEX was £25 I think, so I can only go up. Can’t make an omelette without cracking some eggs after all!
Glad to be your 1,000th subscriber! Hope to see more of this project soon.
I am looking forward to see this finishing.
Thank you from the states for the pronunciation of "aluminum"

It's nice to see your progression with camera building

@@ErnestasMontvidas hahahahaha fair enough :D
Can't wait to see you get a PCBWay/JLCPCB sponsorship next for your Nylon camera body build ;)
That’s the dream!
It's fascinating to watch your design skills improving! And I continue to be surprised at how well the Canon P lends itself to this type of project.
Thank you!
so excited to see this project finished!! would absolutely love instructions at the end and would absolutely pay for cad files!!!
‚in the weeds‘ would be an understatement
Just watched all of your videos! Awesome stuff!
I came back to check how has it been 🤣
amazing project my guy looking forward for more
