    I just soldered the ones I need to the back of the MB


    I had to remove the olf USB and Fan connectors at the front to solder in the new ones.
    But the SATA-Plugs are still accessible from there.

    Also the EPS is connected at the back: (the cable was already shown in Post 42)

    That's some crazy soldering! I was worried you were going to say that, a little too tough to attempt in my case i think

    Thanks

    Some new pics:





    I tested some of my lenses with the macro rings:

    58mm 1:2 lense (M42):



    55mm 1:1.4 lense (M42):



    50mm 1:1.8 lense (Canon):



    I like the first the most...
    The second is a little bit blurred with the 1.4 blind.
    The third is also good, but I don't like this plasticlense with a AF that is slower than if I do it myself

    And one more:

    Don't get me wrong, everything is purrfect, It's just me

    I have some new pics:





    Too green and one broken sector:







    I bought another one that was working but I thought SSDs aren't mellowed yet (some "problems" occurred...) so I also sent that one back...





    Now I have to wait for the powder coated case
