Looks very interesting.
What is the available travel distance of the camera platform?
I've just read the details more closely. In the current configuration total travel would be 25mm.
I can make one with 2 inch travel but micrometer in that range are very expensive.
Chris,
The Newport or Thorlabs fine pitch lead screws are a good alternative to Vernier Micrometers and much less expensive.
