Ok so there was a previous forum thread regarding a rehousing project for the LA7200.
Based off the video there, I have had this design in my mind for my own rehousing project and improvements as well for close focus and/or marrying the LA7200 with a manual focus lens and making an all in one lens solution for the Canon 5d Mark III.
Progress is starting off well. Getting the hang of AutoCAD and designing as such.
I am planning on first prototyping with a 3d printer I have access to then going to a further manufacturing step from there. Not trying to get too ahead of myself
