Hey guys, Firstly, I have only shot on film once, and I don’t own a camera, so forgive me if my terminology is not perfect! Im sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. im in the process of designing and building my own 16mm film camera. I have the transport reasonably sorted (ignore the take up spool spinning in the wrong direction and not at the correct speed, still need to code that part out), however I still want to refine the pressure plate and add a spring on the rail for lateral support. However, at the moment I’m trying to dial in the flange focal distance. I’m using a Sony e mount on the camera so it has a very short FFD of 18mm. I understand that the depth should be set a slightly short of that so it ends up focusing just past the emulsion. After reading, I’m thinking I get a depth micrometer and put a gauge block against the gate then take the measurement that way. Is a depth micrometer that does 0.01 mm fine enough or do I need to be investing in a 0.001mm? Is the depth micrometer the best way? How do actual camera techs do it? Also if you have any other tips for the camera please feel free to let me know!! I will link a little video of it running - Thank you in advance:) Henry

I've got +/- 40 cheaper gold mount batteries, Ikan IB-L130A, 14.8V 9.0 Ah 130Wh in my inventory. They're in good shape as far as the battery cells, but the outside cases are getting beat up and cracked. Ikan doesn't have spare/loose cases for this model anymore. Does anyone know of a generic case that I could re-home the cells into? Or maybe a 3d printed design that would work? I know it's a long shot. Just trying to keep the inventory functioning as long as possible.
