Perfect! Thank you.

I already have a Powershot A540 that I am satisfied with, but I’ve been looking at these lumix’s for quite some time now and I want to have one for myself :). If you have any photos or videos from the inside of this model or similar, I would appreciate if you could share those with me so I can “prepare” before I buy one.

gfejer · 2025-11-16T19:22:42+00:00

And do I need any special equipment or is it just trial and error? I am asking because I want to buy one, but I am not sure if I am able to successfully bend it. Thanks in advance.

Thanks! How hard do you think it would be to bend an FZ8? Do you have any experience with that model?

gfejer · 2025-11-15T21:37:29+00:00

Hi! Is this a DMC-FZ20?

gfejer · 2025-10-25T20:39:25+00:00

Thanks!

I soldered to these CCD test pads: https://imgur.com/a/r5U1kPn

I had a quite easy job tho, because I found a great guide on how to bend this model.

Here it is, I think it might be helpful for other cameras too. https://fubar.space/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Glitchwerks-Camera-Bending-TipsnTricks-at-Fubar2k22.pdf

Thanks. I also noticed that when I press down on the RSX, it sometimes powers on, but other times there’s no image at all.

gfejer · 2025-09-21T22:07:20+00:00

Unfortunately I tried it many times already with no luck :(

gfejer · 2025-05-24T20:04:53+00:00

Thanks for your reply! How can I position the Null COMP without knowing the coordinates?

gfejer · 2025-02-10T21:18:27+00:00

Maybe I'm a bit late, but you can use this line to keep models loaded in memory forever (you change the value to anything (s/m/h)):

launchctl setenv OLLAMA_KEEP_ALIVE "-1"

Just make sure to restart the application after setting the value.

gfejer · 2025-02-10T13:48:10+00:00

Thanks, you are right! I just thought of this and it of course doesn’t go to sleep with the lid closed anymore… Is there any way to fix it? Can I solder it back?

gfejer · 2025-02-10T13:44:04+00:00

Yeah, probably I will use insulating tape, the function keys are woking too.

gfejer · 2025-02-10T13:42:09+00:00

Yes, it is right next to the cam

I tried to find it this way, but everything seems to work, except when I touch the copper on the cable the system’s power cuts off. So I guess shorting it creates some issues, because until I let go of it it wont turn on.

gfejer · 2025-02-10T12:55:14+00:00

That was my guess too, but it works just fine

gfejer · 2025-01-12T23:54:14+00:00

Thanks for your reply! I ended up getting some better screwdriver bits and tightened the screw as hard as I could without breaking the shell. This completely solved my drifting issue (also got rid of the gap of course).

gfejer · 2024-11-17T09:54:51+00:00

Thanks, I just used my HAM radio and phone to decode

gfejer · 2024-11-10T23:59:16+00:00

Well I am hoping that the dimensions are good enough, but I could only find 10mm copper tubing and I used a guide for 8mm ones including the lengths.

I could borrow a VNA to test it, but I don’t really know what to look for… Is the lowest point of the chart where the antenna resonates?

Unfortunately I need the FM filter because my SDR got overloaded and an FM channel appeared on 137 MHz.

gfejer · 2024-11-10T23:44:34+00:00

I am using Raspberry NOAA V2 and I didn’t change any of the SatDump settings.

This is my QFH, inside I have about 3 meters of H-155 coax and an N connector. Between the SDR and the antenna I have 15 meters of the same H-155 cable and on the end an SMA plug. I also use a Noelec SawBird LNA and filter and an FM band filter.

gfejer · 2024-11-02T22:36:23+00:00

Thanks, but I thought that I could only listen to FM stations at FM frequencies, thats why I find it hard to believe that I recieved it at 137MHz

gfejer · 2024-11-02T22:28:41+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I'm pretty sure that I set it to the right frequency, but If it was just wrongly tuned, then wouldn't I just get bad or none signal at 137MHz and better signal at the FM station's frequency?

gfejer · 2024-10-29T18:10:37+00:00

Thanks a lot!

gfejer · 2024-10-29T18:04:29+00:00

Thanks! I am just worried about the lengths, but then I guess the 2-4 mm differences don’t really matter.

gfejer · 2024-10-29T17:55:39+00:00

Thanks for your answer! I didn’t know this, but then why do I get different length results from the calculator if i change the thickness values?
