<p> Hi,</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> First, thanks to everybody who support this project.</p> <p> Sadly, the campaign doesn&#39;t reach the given goal, I draw the necessary conclusions and you should be refunded of all you had given to the campaign.</p> <p> I&#39;ll not give up the project anyway, I will continue to work on it during my free time with my own money. Everything will be slower, probably less documented too, but nothing is never over with the OpenSource.</p> <p> I will continue to update the project here <span class="ver" title="It is unusual to put a space before a punctuation mark.">:</span> http://hackaday.io/project/1834-OpenReflex-rework</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> During the campaign, one of the biggest restraint was the old school / film aspect of the camera.</p> <p> That&#39;s why one of the main development axis will be the building of a DIY digital back big size, with low cost and simple elements. From the firsts track I get some ideas that could give very interesting results. (sensible surface of 60x60mm (even 6x9)&nbsp; with 70Mpix)</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> I do not exclude a new campaign in the future, but nothing without more concrete elements to show and much more preparation.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> I will work now much closer to the Saint Etienne (Fr) FabLab &quot;OpenFactorySaint&eacute;<span class="ver" title="There should not be a space after the quotation mark. Well &quot;yes.&quot;">&quot; and</span> also try to involve the local makers and photographer community to join me in the development.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> If you want to continue to follow this project and be involved in the development do not hesitate to contact me directly [ contact ~&atilde;t~ leomarius.com ] , I&#39;ll continue to update this page with the more significative elements.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Thanks again to all of you,</p> <p> Sincerely,</p> <p> L&eacute;o Marius.</p>
<p> Hi,</p> <p> Here is a quick adaptation to my last OpenReflex hack for my Canon DSLR.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Now I can use this lens on my two cameras ! :)<br /> <br /> <img alt="Sam_3432" src="https://kkbb-production.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/project_image/image/106915/SAM_3432.JPG" /></p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> It&#39;s working fine, soon pictures I take with this setup ! (I just need to find my compact flash memory cards...)<br /> <br /> Here is the 3D file with a quick explanation.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <div class="embed"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" class="embedly-embed" frameborder="0" height="405" scrolling="no" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fsketchfab.com%2Fmodels%2F5870ae9ee1d2471cbcc9714f48eb5e17%2Fembed&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fsketchfab.com%2Fmodels%2F5870ae9ee1d2471cbcc9714f48eb5e17&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fd35krx4ujqgbcr.cloudfront.net%2Furls%2F5870ae9ee1d2471cbcc9714f48eb5e17%2Fthumbnails%2Fa90b71793efc437487d0a03bd85fe7d6%2F448.jpeg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=sketchfab" width="540"></iframe></div>
