Up to 4056x3040 pixels. Up to 10 fps at that resolution.
ISO 100 to 800.
JPEG or lossless PNG
Available without the infrared filter.
Can record YUV420 or RGB 8 bits/channel. I assume this is demosaiced pixels. Can we get raw mosaiced data? “–raw Adds raw Bayer data to JPEG metadata”, whatever that means.
Even with the cost of motherboard, lens and power supply, we get a fairly cheap camera that is very controllable at low levels.
the fact that it has the option of coming without the infrared filter alone makes this worth investing in. that being said, I wish it was available in sony and other mount options as well… oh well… adaptors it is…
Is it available without the infrared filter? I can’t find any reference to this outside of this forum. Does anyone have any further information on this?
ah that’s a pity, but maybe if this works out we can see wider options on next version (also 50$ camera, while not cheap, feels not scary enough to actually do that DYI with)
More than you get for most cameras, and as @eylul says, not nearly so scary as doing it with a DSLR or compact camera. I only did my first diy conversion (on a Panasonic compact camera) because I had to disassemble the camera anyway to clean the sensor.
So far, I have a working touch-based user interface with live view, an alternative physical user interface with two encoders for ISO and shutter speed, and a shutter button. And a (rough) 3D-printed case.
Great job!
How much will it cost as soon as you put it in production?
Jokes aside, it will be interesting to know the total cost - I’m sure it will still be affordable, and you get an almost 100% opensource camera (well, what is the sensor weight in this equation?)
Definitely a work in progress at the moment. I’ll upload the 3D model once the dimensions actually fit. Version 2 of the case is printing as we speak .
Wow. With the right lens adapter (for a Nikkor 105mm macro) I could have a dedicated studio macro/focus-stacking setup, which would be convenient. To say the least.
