Yes, it is a keycap set for camera enthusiasts like me.

I have the impression that many people who like keyboards are also into camera swamps, but what about you?

The PBS Aperture Priority Keycap Set is a keycap set featuring a camera.

Designed by Akukolabs (designer Timothy from England).

The PBS profile planned by Cannonkeys is used and manufactured by Keyreative.

This article reviews the PBS Aperture Priority Keycap Set.

PBS Aperture Priority Keycap Set Review

Let’s take a look at the PBS Aperture Priority Keycap Set using actual photos.

This is the kind of packaging.

P1080402

The combination of the retro yellow exterior and black letters is reminiscent of film packaging.

P1080403

To make it easy to open, there is a semi-circular depression at the top.

And really, this packaging is excellent.

At a glance, you can tell it’s a camera-like keycap set.

The keycap case is of the stacked type, and the words “CANNONKEYS” can be read on the package.

Keyreative is in charge of manufacturing.

P1080406

The key tray is divided into three tiers, each containing a different type of key, such as alpha-based, mod, and numpad.

P1080407

Alpha Kit.

The square font, which seems to match the rectangle of the viewfinder, is impressive, and the yellow and green print accents are in very good taste.

Kawamura top RKawamura

As for the PBS series, sublimation printing using PBT material is used.

P1080410

There are also two types of ISO Enter.

Kawamura top RKawamura

This is more of an enter key for layouts used in the UK.
The keytop printing itself is different for Japanese layouts.

P1080409

Trays centered around the MOD key.

A series of icons that make the camera early, such as the flash symbol (lightning symbol) and illuminance (sunny symbol).

It is also interesting to note that the horizontal keycap is an exposure meter with respect to the horizontal keycap.

P1080408

Numpad trays.

The green coloring is very good.

P1080411

As for the profile, it is a “flat profile” with no difference in slope from row to row, indicating a spherical design with a depression toward the center.

Kawamura top RKawamura

If you look closely, you can see that the cylindrical shape is more horizontal than vertical.
Perhaps this is the secret of the ease of typing.
Keycaps with such a low overall height are hard to find.

P1080414

On the other hand, it is interesting to note the cylindrical shape with respect to the long horizontal keys.

P1080413

Another difference from the norm is that many of the mod keys, especially those used on the bottom row, have a convex shape.

The fact that sublimation printing is applied to the convex without any problems is another example of Keyreative’s high level of technical skill.

P1080412

Let’s look at each keycap individually.

The key tops are quite tightly sloped, but sublimation printing is applied without blotches.

Each color is well defined and crisp.

P1080416
P1080418

The back of the keycap is white.

P1080417

In other words, the base color of the PBS profile is “white” and sublimation printing is applied to it to produce this tint.

Kawamura top RKawamura

This technology is called 5-sided sublimation printing.
The material itself is so beautiful that it is misidentified as black.
This is great.

Let’s take a look at a picture of the actual keyboard.

We adopted cocot38mini for this project.

KEYGEEK × MZ Y3 was chosen as the keyswitch.

P1080419
The artisan keycap in the center is personal property.

This is a highly satisfying keyboard.

P1080423

Summary|Keyboard enthusiasts who like cameras should not miss it.

This is a review of the PBS Aperture Priority Keycap Set.

Various variations of the PBS Profile Keycap series have appeared since the earlier release of “PBS Blanks.

After all, 5-sided sublimation printing technology is low-cost and offers a high degree of freedom in creation, which is why we are able to release such an impressive set of keycaps.

Among them, we evaluated PBS Aperture Priority as a very complete keycap set with a lot of originality.

If you are interested, please give it a try.
