Hi Mike!
I'd just like to confirm, that I received the new camera. It arrived
with the trigger/flash board you mentioned on your pictures, the wire
harnesses to connect it and the lens I specified.
It works as documented: I can enable the software trigger mode, the
hardware trigger mode with software controllable frame rate and the
hardware trigger mode (test with trigger button, not with external
trigger signal yet.) The trigger button seems to be a little laggy, but
with the flash enabled, it's clearly visible, that each button press
generates a frame and this frame is visible on the computer screen.
Many thanks for all your help!
