Is there a wide variety of key caps available?
I was wondering if the A1200 or others could have video editing caps made.

As far as I am aware, there is only the replacement keycap crowdfunding campaign https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/new-compatible-keycaps-for-amiga-classics-2#/ here for replacement keycaps.

These will fit all Amigas using the Mitsumi Hybrid stems which were the most common on the Amiga keyboards.

There are not other custom keycaps that I am aware of unless they are 3d printed or use custom stickers on existing keys.

Thanks, I mentioned this to an Amiga dealer.
Maybe some one will make them.
I hope it would be a good option to anyone wanting to do video editing.

It might be an idea to get in contact with Philippe Lang ASAP. If he can't accommodate the the designs you want for your custom key caps then he should at least be able to get you the blanks required so that you can print your own transparent stickers or even use a professional company like WASD.

Kipper2k in cooperation with Amiga on the Lake has a project to create new keyboards using Cherry MX type switches and also create molds for the unique to Amiga keycaps. This will be more expensive than keycaps only (for existing Mitsumi hybrid switch Amiga keyboards) option from A1200.net

@Rob

I have seen the web site that sells all kinds of stickers for keyboards.
Another sold keyboards for specific software.
Finding out exactly what the standard is for video keyboards is another step.

I wish I could buy one of those keyboards.
