The pressure plate was floating and probably has a enough "backlash/play" to allow for a thin sensor. Again, if I remember, I could ask my friend about the this.

I started out on a FTb in high school astronomy class. While in college I got an AE-1 Program that I used for about a year, then straight traded it for a FTb-N that I used until getting an F-1n about a year after that
For many years I had a pre=war Deardorff 8x10 with a triple convertible Wollensak Velostigmat lens.

As you can tell Grandpa is a little behind the times, but it is all good fun!

I used to have a 30D, which was basically a 5D in APS-C format. I gave that to a friend of mine when I got my 6D.
