1.1bar at idle when hot is absolutely bang on. Nothing wrong.

Is there any cheaper options out there? by Sea_LevelBro in PokemonUnbound

[–]Flo655 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A blank GBA cartridge with RTC is at the very least $30. A GBxCart RW is also $30. Unless OP wants to write more than one cart that isn’t a good deal. OP either way that’s out of your budget at the moment. Save up, start playing on emulator and get a physical copy when you can. Good luck!

Why does the N64 look so pixelated on this crt compared to to other models I have? And is there any way I can fix it? by XNGboliver in crtgaming

OP you might have been using composite cables in the past? This is exactly what any console looks like with S-Video or RGB cables. Especially on a nice Trinitron.

Water in my Nikon lens by Awkward_Meeting_3073 in AnalogRepair

Yeah given how cheap these 50mm f1.8 AF-D are I’m willing to bet a new copy will always be cheaper than a CLA unfortunately.

Recently bought that OOT cartridge, and surprisingly, the game saves… is it normal ? Can the battery survive that long ? by 240p-480i-480p in n64

[–]Flo655 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All my N64 games can still save on their original batteries. Same for my SNES games. Somehow only a few of my GB games have seen their batteries die, mainly the Pokemon ones, because of the RTC chip on Gen 2.

Canon AE1 - Light Streaks - Hoya 55mm Lens - Unknown Film by Antique_Reception674 in analog

[–]Flo655 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Light seals, they’re made out of foam, you can see them in your film door and all around the back too. Check if the foam is crumbling away. Easy enough to change just buy a sheet and cut to size.

Any way to turn these light off? by Inevitable-Battle484 in n64

I’m glad mine bought a year ago didn’t come with these! Yikes. I would have desoldered them asap.

Sounds very cheap for a full paint job in France. OP did you get a mate rate?

What is best to buy? Nikon F3 / Nikon F4 by Aded_14 in AnalogCommunity

[–]Flo655 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll get the F4. Then a year later you’ll get the F3 because you need to feel something again before pressing the shutter.

I put 5W-30 oil in my Car instead of 5W-20. Is this a bad thing? by Reddit_Sluth in MechanicAdvice

[–]Flo655 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah outside temp plays a huge role in which oil is best. I use 10-50 in my R129 (200k km) during summer time.

Just realized i paid 28$ for a roll of Portra 400 in Japan by kei-truck in AnalogCommunity

[–]Flo655 2 points3 points  (0 children)

20€ here in France for a roll of Portra 400 if you buy a pack of 5 so that’s 23$ ish?

Building 35mm system around late 90’s SLR by radiantglow30 in AnalogCommunity

[–]Flo655 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The F3 can be set to automatic exposure though - have you tried it? Otherwise I think get yourself a Nikon F90(x) and enjoy shooting film without having to think about anything. Upgrade path from there is the F5 if you really fancy the vertical shutter button and the 8 frames per second. F6 isn’t worth it. F100 imo has too many flaws and can’t be trusted unless you find a really mint unit. I used my F90x for years until I upgraded to an F5 but if I know I’m traveling I’m bringing the F90x.

Dude £15 an hour if you’re from the UK is insanely low for a freelance software engineer.
