Have you looked into connecting our camera via USB to the Raspberry Pi and then use the gPhoto library to control your camera? Really a bummer that the USB connection through the slip ring was not possible.
I have tried it and it works okay. I did not end up using it because the video feed has about a 3 second delay via mpeg stream over wifi (rPi zero W 2). For camera control I will use a trigger mechanism for the 2,5mm trigger plug of the camera plus an external focus motor.
Yes, and it's amazing(ish)! Being able to get a 3d model of your PCB into your CAD design is a game changer for designing cases. There are a lot of limitations for hobbyist users but so far it's enough for me
Please let me know what you think of this format and if I should continue it in the future.
Nice work as always. Great to see you posting again

Wait, you can do PCBs in Fusion 360 ?!
