    Am curious about these new Aluma cameras.
    The backfocus table linked on the Download tab for the 814 does not include the Aluma cameras.
    Also, the download tab has "STT-8300 technical specifications." listed, although no spec sheet available yet.
    Same problem with the other Aluma camera download tabs.

    I assume this info will be updated soon.

    An estimate of the backfocus distance would be helpful for planning.
    Thanks

    We do plan to update the table, but we're crazy busy! I need find the time to precisely measure the optical backfocus on a couple of production cameras.

    Based on the CAD models, the mechanical distance from the KAF-8300 sensor plane to the front surface of the camera is 0.81". Knock off about 0.03" for the window and it'll come in at around 0.78".

    For the Aluma694 and Aluma814 the mechanical distance is 0.63", optically about 0.60".
