One of those secret gems on KZbin that deserves more attention. Keep it up!

[@DIYMachines]

Thanks

[@SingingWithJeff]

I just finished the wiring, and everything is working great. Now it's time to move onto the housing! :) Thank you for this tutorial. You helped my fiance and I save a ton of money on our wedding! :)

[@0804Mon]

Hello! Please ,could you answer my question to Lewis? Thanks!

[@thriftingsifting6709]

This is so helpful! I’m gonna do the wiring first and then the board programming work. Later do the platform or stand for the camera to sit on. Amazing work! Keep doing these videos!

[@TheRichardesigns]

Really enjoying the photos that the wedding guests took. They are très amusante!

[@DIYMachines]

Thanks

[@CyBert78]

Very cool project, thank you for that. Just did the wiring and programming and worked almost from the start. Now I need to build the case.

[@DIYMachines]

Excellent to hear. Enjoy it!

[@bebegera]

Having the breadboard and perfboard instructions is great in the video to be able to have options :-)

[@clauswobbe1]

Very nice construction - and a very good and thorough walk-through! I really like the fact you covered both types of circuit boards. Great job!

[@DIYMachines]

Thank you. It's my first time using perforated board. :)

[@explorethewonder]

So nice! Thank you for sharing!

[@oskarogarp]

Once again a great video!

[@DIYMachines]

Thank you. :)

[@jestix9662]

Ahhh those times where we were still allowed to go to weddings. Feels like another lofe

[@stemoura]

Thanks from Brazil

[@DIYMachines]

You're welcome.

[@technicfitness]

Looks great! Greetings from Germany

[@DIYMachines]

Thanks, and Guten Tag. :)

[@wiiperico]

Wow what a nice proyect!!! I was wondering: would it be possible to connect it to a printer so it prints the photo in the same place, like a professional photobooth?

Nice idea :) I’m going to give this a try, but I think I’m going to try to minimise the size of the booth by leaving the camera out of the enclosure. I guess it’s safer to have it enclosed but for the use I intend to give it, it will be fine. Thanks again 👍🏼

[@Esperal]

I think there is a typo at 10:30 : The red wire labeled "Shutter plate (top)" should be labeled "Shutter plate (bottom)" Otherwise I love your channel, you're awesome ! Thank you a lot for your work !!

[@Chris-o8e6n]

Clever idea! I've made the electronics part on a breadboard - it itakes pictures and seems to work fine that way - and the display works...just the display 'tiles' are in the reverse order for me. So 'SMILE!' is 'E! IL SM'. Please could I have some advice? Thanks

[@0804Mon]

Hello! Nice ,but i've problem the "fonts" library does not work and is not recognized? Do you have a solution?

[@TheUmphDegree]

I really like your build and video. I may take some of your design ideas to create something similar. I rented a Penthouse for NYE 2021 in San Francisco. Now the task is to build a photo booth for cheap. Also I’m thinking of using the twilio Api to text people who input details with a num pad or keyboard. Just had a thought of allowing people to input their details and then throughout the party facial recognition will text or email them the photo. That way if their to drunk, it’s all good

[@DIYMachines]

Wow, love you idea of tracking the guests with facial recognition so they can keep using it and receiving photos as they keep drinking. Haha, I wonder if the pioneers of face recognition ever considered it's use in this way? :)

[@user-vt5lh6lm3n]

A nice expansion to this would be linking it to upload to Twitter or another platform.

[@DIYMachines]

Great idea. I almost implemented that - but I would have to have added a Raspberry Pi instead of the Arduino and this would have driven the cost up slightly. I was aiming to keep it cheap so ultimately decided not to add the functionality.

[@user-vt5lh6lm3n]

@@DIYMachines Maybe a version 2 video at a later date. Its a great project as it is.

[@DIYMachines]

@@user-vt5lh6lm3n Yes, I have thought about that. Thanks.

[@dnieves36]

Hi is a good intrusion in photo booth, I wan to know if can use a andruino cam or raspberry pi cam in this project???

[@hugoroa8256]

Buenas tardes.. excelente trabajo... Cómo envías las fotos tomadas a la impresora ?? Gracias.

[@phillip2446]

brilliant

[@bardoperez3426]

Pretty cool bro....thanks

[@DIYMachines]

No problem 👍

[@sunnyleung9225]

This is an amazing tutorial. thanks for sharing. Please also do recommend us the software that you use for the photobooth. Thanks.

[@wakaria0072]

Awesome machine ! i´ve become a fan of ur stuff, just recently starting with some of ur projects and im starting with the cute BB8 one. On the power supply i did it a little bit diffrent ha... but thats what i had~~ (3x INR18650-30Q 3000mAh) my BB8 (not painted so far) is speedy gonzales... way to fast ~~ is there a way to modify the code that the motors only turn for 50% or so ~~ thx for any help. Greetings from Germany

[@connorhodges8939]

Maybe I need to use the parts for this. Also I need wood for the framing.

[@stephenraja2529]

Hi sir can I get the schematic for this project please

[@americatoken3334]

I just bought a photobooth from SKYZ , i didn't know i can build my own.

[@brianaala]

Hi, thanks for the great tutorial! I'm curious though; how are you sending the image to the monitor? How long does it display for and how is the monitor connected to the Arduino?

[@lewisea]

Thanks. The monitor is connected to the camera directly and is just showing the cameras 'review' of the photo for about 10 seconds after the photo is taken. The monitor is not connected to the Arduino. The Arduino is controlling the shutter on the camera, the giant arcade button and LED countdown.

[@jackass...2726]

Lewis Aburrow where is the arduino getting power from?

[@DIYMachines]

@@jackass...2726 The Arduino is connected to a USB power supply. As the monitor had to be connected to mains I did not see a huge benefit in engineering something to power the Arduino instead of just a mains powered USB supply.

[@joshuabauer5119]

If anyone could help me build this for a Panasonic / LUMIX Camera would be lovely. Its a bit confusing the way they use the resistors. Anyone tried that before?

[@chrisspeight3489]

Can i use an iPad instead of a monitor screen ??

[@Tortiboy]

Helllo can somebdy help me please. Everthing works fine expept the Dot Matrix Display. The Numbers are not sliding the way they should in the Animationn, and the Word Smile is mirrored. PLZ Help the Booth is needed für my Wedding :-/

Where can I buy the arcade button mount?? the link not working.

[@SingingWithJeff]

I had the same problem. I found a similar one here. I haven't printed it yet, but I presume it works, and its free! :) www.thingiverse.com/thing:4159449/files

[@jm81013]

Hello I just uploaded the program to my nano but the words do not scroll across all of the MAX display. instead it looks to scroll across each board individually and the words are all jumbled. Do you know why this would be happening? Thanks great video and love the end result!

[@DIYMachines]

Hi, some MAX displays are rotated. Try changing the rotation on line 27 to different increments of 90 and see if this helps. (i.e. 0, 90, 180, 270,)

[@leeeeni]

The camera runs on battery?

[@DIYMachines]

The camera is running on its own battery.

[@stelvio5213]

you need to update, Instagram has updated the logo 😊

[@robmarkwick3496]

would like to say im having fun with this build and im happy so far :) .....untill i have pluged everything in and the scroll on the screen is wrong, insted of going right to left on the far right it starts at the left screen so we will call it screen 4 then right to left on screen 3 then screen 2 then screen 1 can you help as its prob the screen not your code

[@robmarkwick3496]

fixed :)

[@jackass...2726]

@@robmarkwick3496 how did you do it?

[@esegorriz]

Hello My camera gets a signal from the circuit but doesn't take the actual photo. Nothing happens if I'm in Live view mode, but if im in the menu or other options it changes to live view. I've tried with other remote cables and they work perfectly. Can anyone help me? Please By the way! REALLY REALLY COOL PROJECT Thanks.

[@technick_mods]

Did you ever fix this? Having the same issue with my Sony UPDATE: Fixed the issue on mine after a little bit of tinkering. I ended up connecting the top and bottom plate wires next to each other and bridging them with some solder. Works great now!

[@CyBert78]

@@technick_mods thanks for your comment. I‘ve got the same problem but your solution fixed it 👍

[@kallyanolekar5061]

Sir Indian price ?

[@hardik__baria]

cant connect my SONY A7 M3 to the screen via C-type cable ??? What to do ??

[@DIYMachines]

I made a shutter release for my Sony A7 M3 by buying one of these (amzn.to/3mwBMOF), open up the controller and you'll see which wires make contact when you press it (one focuses and the next activates the shutter). From this you'll now how to wire it up to where the red and yellow wires are labelled on the wiring diagram. :)

[@urbannpa]

That's an awesome glue gun. I need to find one.

[@ludosam1106]

hi, is it possible to add a printer via usb to this?

[@DIYMachines]

Hello, the Arduino and current code would not allow for this. If it is something you wanted to do I would recommend using a Raspberry Pi (you would need new write new code) and something like GPHOTO (www.gphoto.org) to capture and retrieve the image from he camera to then send on to a printer.

[@ObiOjukwu]

Your the best brother. I need you to be my mentor. I need help.

[@clauswobbe1]

What is the make of your 3D printer? Are you happy with it?

[@DIYMachines]

Hello, my printer is a Prusa i3 Mk3s. I am happy with it. It's not perfect, it will have an occasional short run of misprints but after some simple maintenance everything runs like a dream again. I've clocked up about 43 days of continuous printing and it's layered over 1.3km of filament and still runs as good as when I first assembled it. I intend to get another Prusa when thye time comes to replace this one.
