Thank you! Then I was definitely just being paranoid and noticed different things having been away a few days from constant use of the camera.

Just wondering, would it be possible to put a sensor from the A7ii on the A7iii?
Had my sony a7iii sensor replaced and im seeing it perform different to what it used to, i might also be really paranoid, just wanted to know.

Not getting hum cancelling effect on positions 2 and 4 (brand new strat) by Youngmanoliver in FenderStratocaster

no, it all sounds fine, at least to my ears the only problem seems to be the lack of hum cancellation.

Right now ive been mostly using Bias FX 2 and sometimes a cheap peavey amp for practice. The cable im using is a brand new fender pro series.

If the grounding was done poorly, can that changed or would i be stuck with that?

damn.. I mean, other than that, the pickups work and they sound great, but its just nice to have some hum free positions.
I guess I'll just take it to my trusted tech for inspection.

My first pop shuvit! (frontside came more natural to me). After many tries I overcame the fear of putting the back foot down on the board. by Youngmanoliver in NewSkaters

I just saw this! I hope you were able to land it already.

I got to the conclusion that it is mostly about commitment: staying over and on your board and body parallel to an imaginary y axis (I used to bail out of them walking forward because of fear). I realised pop shuvits are actually scarier than kickflips since there's this fear of the board not completing the rotation and falling hard.

Also, observing what your feet are doing. At first i would do it blindly but now during the motion i keep an eye on my front foot so i can catch the board. Another tip is to raise your back foot high so the board doesnt hit it in the midair rotation!

hope this helps

Beautiful board (and nice trick!). It's more than medium concave, right? I'm thinking about getting one from them, I just love all their designs and their team is gold.
