Project : Fujifilm Ace - Instax Mini Adapter
Status : Abandon (maybe comeback someday idk)
Description :
Try to adapt Fujifilm Instax mini system to ACE 800 system camera (Fujifilm Fotorama 800AF)
Prototyping
Measurement & Sketch
Concept :
Creating a 3d printed adapter block for instax size, create a film picker arm to transfer a movement from the existing picker arm.
Picker arm is fix and slide on the 3mm od. stainless shaft (friction fit) with in the 3d printed part with the spring. This is my mistake, I’m testing with the strong spring and end up broken the fotorama film picker mechanism.
Latest version in the camera
Latest version body (with not latest picker), Latest picker on the right.
Every parts maybe need some filing to make some small adjustment. I think I almost had it but . . . yeah I think I’ll be stop here.
ps. for pressure plate, I test with some kind of spongy packing foam.
