I have been using adobe for nearly 2 decades and I have never felt the frustration I feel now about the lack of consistency across these apps.

Explain why the alignment tools between illustrator and indesign are so vastly different from each other. How the actual F can you decide one tool needs certain tools more than the other? Why can we not make them the exact same?

Why do you decide to add this fancy vertical and horizontal center alignment tool to illustrator, leave it out of indesign, and STILL not add an alignment tool for bleed to illustrator. I normally wouldn’t care about little things like this but more than half of the time smart guides don’t even seem to recognize the bleed or it doesn’t snap to the edges.

Adobe I love you and I have been by your side for 18 years, but ffs you are making this harder and harder every year.

If I am just blatantly ignoring an easy solution for this, then I apologize but I still think the actual UI for these tools absolutely needs to match across each application.

EDIT: I bought a battery grip for now, went with a neewer version temporarily…thanks for tips, forgot about the battery grips!

The battery hitch thing for my r6mk2 somehow snapped, or fell off (see photos) and it won’t close properly (even ordered a replacement door before I figured it out. Not sure how it happened, but I have too many shoots coming up to send for repair right now.

Wondering if any wizards have a temporary solution to fill that tiny gap and keep the door shut. If all else fails I can use electrical tape, seems simple enough to try something that can hold it temporarily though.
