I'm Back Solves Its Sync Problem With a Screw-In Shutter Button

auto_awesomePixelfetch Take
If you backed the I'm Back Roll, or were sitting on the fence, this matters: the sensor pre-activation problem that made the whole system feel fiddly now has a mechanical fix. A small button that threads into your camera's cable release socket fires the sensor in sync with the shutter, no Bluetooth fumbling required. It's still crowdfunded hardware and still renders on a screen, but the engineering direction is sound and the $1M backing means there's genuine demand. For film shooters who want to run a Pentax or OM-1 body without burning through rolls, this is the most realistic path that's actually progressing.
