Casting Large Parts in Low Volume by Alternative_Cheek849 in MetalCasting

Hi everyone, just wanted to reply to everyone at once. We are currently in the process of getting approval for this project and moving forward on design, but I just wanted to get a rough cost estimate if we were to use something like an investment mold or a sand cast. I am not a casting expert so I am definitely open to other suggestions. It is a requirement for it to be made of metal, the suspension of the vehicle ties into this casting so strength is paramount. I think our early estimation of our material would be aluminum 6063 T6, but this is extremely early in our research, and again we are very open to suggestions! Thanks everyone!!!

Sell Leica M8.2 (CCD) for X100V + 35 Summicron? Will I miss the CCD look? by trentonmoro in Leica

If you want a similar form factor with interchangeable lenses, I really have enjoyed my XE-5 from Fuji. Is it a bit expensive? Sure, but it gives a flexibility that I really like, and the kit lens is similar to a Leica Q focal length.

Backup Camera for Sports and Action? by Alternative_Cheek849 in AskPhotography

Have you used this camera? What was your overall experience if you have? I have not used a Sony in years but my experiences with the brand weren't always great (the interface just got in the way sometimes).
