SP has side pictures of all their profiles, such as:

for DCS.
Is there a similar picture for Cherry profile? A sketch like the one for SP or a real picture of cherry caps from the side would suffice.

Though modern Cherry sets have double B and double E and don't use A or F.

Thanks for the pictures ;D
-
Are the 3800 overall the same height as regular cherry, or lower? Has anyone here tried typing on them? They look interesting.
-
The 3800 series is almost half the height of traditional Cherry profile.
-
is there a comparison between them and dsa profile?
-
I have no picture, but
- the G80-3800's keycaps are cylindrical, somewhat leaning with a larger front than back. Almost precisely like an older laptop keyboard. As low profile as you can get on Cherry.
- the DSA profile is spherical and completely symmetric. You can rotate a blank DSA key 90° and it will look the same as before. It is medium-profile.
DSA profile is not low-profile. SP calls it "medium-profile". The keys are as high as the lowest profile-row on OEM profile.
