Last one. SNAPX is done.

Reprinted the case on a textured plate so the print surface picks up that pattern on the bottom face. Small thing but it makes it look way less like a generic 3D printed box.

Code side i spent this round mostly on polish. Cleaned up the UI on the web gallery, the page you get when you connect to the cameras wifi to pull photos off it. Also made the onboard LED actually flash when you take a photo, so it fires at the same time as the shutter instead of just being a light that sits there.

Then the photos themselves. They were saving rotated 90 degrees from what the preview showed, because the preview gets rotated in software but the encoder was getting the raw buffer straight off the camera. Quality was also so bad. Fixed the rotation and then pushed the JPEG quality up and turned on the sensors white balance, gain, exposure and lens correction, which it does not do by default. Same lens, same sensor, completely different photo.

Final assembly is done. One thing worth mentioning, the battery is not inside the case. Its a powerbank plugged into it, so the enclosure only holds the board, screen and button.

Really happy with how this turned out.
