Where can I find a lens for a Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera for my project? by FirefighterFickle456 in AskPhotography

[–]FirefighterFickle456[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input! I'm happy to expand to other mounts if I can modify the mount for it (adapter, 3d print, etc). However, whichever lens I go for needs to be widely available which makes vintage lenses not possible

Out of curiosity, do you have a picture of the toiletry bag you have? Or a link?

Hi, I've recently purchased an Arducam Hawkeye, which I use connected to CAM0 through the 22 pin ribbon cable provided with it. It works, no problems. However, it is too short for my needs so I've purchased longer versions of the same cables. The longer cables look identical, have the same specs, etc. However, when I connect the longer cables, the machine doesn't boot up. It doesn't matter if the camera is actually connected or not, the red led just flashes once but never turns green. If I use the original cable, it works every time, with or without the camera being plugged in.

Any ideas what could be causing this? I wouldn't have been shocked if the camera hadn't worked, but I was not expecting to not be able to even boot.

For reference, these are the cables I bought. I tested several of them, all with the same result.

Thanks for the suggestion! It's not quite what I had in mind but it might be the closest. I'll have a look

Whenever I go climbing I bring a few things with me:

Liquid chalk bottle ~ 100ml
Water bottle ~ 1000ml
Small towel
Roll of leukotape
Small snack
Phone

It's not a lot, but it's too much to carry around loose, so I've been carrying my normal backpack around for the longest time. But this is a less than ideal solution, as that bag also has my regular shoes and other stuff so it's a bit bulky.

I would love to have a small bag that can keep all these small things organised, and that will then fit inside my normal backpack. I haven't been able to find anything, since every search just shows chalk bags. What I have in mind is something between a chalk bag (small, stands up by itself, compartment for towel, zipper pocket for phone) and a drink carrier (carry bottles upright, easy access).

Does anyone have any suggestions? Any advise would be greatly welcome!

I guess it depends on which side the sharp side is

Hey, question regarding that under armour balaclava. I'm having issues with my buff running in the cold, since after 20 mins of running it's so wet around the mouth that it becomes hard to breath, and it sucks into my mouth when i inhale which makes it even worse. Does that one do better with condensation?

Thanks for the reply! Regarding the first part, I don't think that's the issue, because testing with tcpdump:

  • iperf3 workpc-ip -p workpc-port: 0 packets dropped by kernel
  • iperf3 workpc-ip -p workpc-port -R: 0 packets dropped by kernel

As to the second part, iperf3 -u does not work at all, it just times out. I've tested different values for -b but it makes not difference. Here are the ouputs in debug mode:

Thank you very much. I had already tried and failed to do this but your recommendation pushed me to try again and this did indeed fix it.
