No it's missing on mine

I'll send it up with the shims.

OM1 is OK but the OM2 is missing the battery cover. I've got a piece of clear plastic taped over the hole to keep the crud out but if you've made a cover, that would be great.

Motor drive cover or battery cover? I printed four of the MD covers and used two, but it doesn't take long to print more.

Cool thanks. I'll get my thumb out soon and look at it. It was an ebay £1 weekend so sold Ana's old bike in 16 hours, and trying to shift a bouncy castle. Also she was doing a virtual Brownie camp weekend so had constructed an elaborate den.

I realise that it's not simple to turn a film camera into a digital one, but this thing is pretty hefty

That's horrible, it's like the worst of both worlds & worse as it looks ergonomically flawed, too. I used to have a Mamiya 645 and thought about a digital back for it, but decided there'd be no point. The film is half the magic, and without it you may as well use a digital camera.

I think people have been thinking about this for years, wondering how much it would cost. TBH I would just use my vintage lenses adapted to my G1. Just printed off another batch of MD covers.

Sorry, my bad. It's the motor drive cover that's missing.

Nice idea on the digital back but it looks very unwieldy. And this is the new ergonomic design??

Cool, just printed out another four. Will see about getting them posted. I also finally managed to remove chewed up screw on my P30t, it had rounded off and while not causing a problem it didn't look very nice. Managed to cut a notch in the top and slowly undid it.
