Nice looking caps, pictures aren't as accurate as they should be

The caps looks really good and feel really nice. However the pictures are not as accurate as you might hope. They take light overall quite nicely, but no where near as evenly. Perhaps it's just the switches I chose (https://akkogear.eu/products/akko-starlit-linear-switch) but the light is still entirely focused on the top of the caps. Plus the spacebar is mostly dim besides the centre on the frame that is included in the pictures. Really nice for the price however, just minor caveats.
Really nice for south-facing LEDs

Nice tough keycaps that choose a decent blend of translucent, the key legend is generally central or high. The legend is either printed or sublimated, and it being a single injection piece means the stem absorbs more light than ideal.
The sound register is slightly higher than the default Ducky keys so there's less thock and more tac, but the build quality and weight of these keycaps is really nice to handle.
There's less curve to these than the Ducky keycaps which is nice on the smaller keyboards (I came from a Corsair Strafe Mk2 with very wide spacing) as the fingers fly across very nicely.
Background:
I got these keycaps because I like backlit keycaps but the Ducky One 3 Pro has south-lit keycaps, I had no idea this was an option or how it would affect my existing custom keycaps. After trying to find side-lit keycaps in UK ISO and failing I had to choose between south-legend transparent keycaps or going with full translucent keycaps that would benefit from LEDs of any angle.
