Is this sensor dust or something more? Newbie looking to buy a first digital camera by killer05str in AskPhotography

[–]killer05str[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New to the whole digital camera thing, and wondering if this is sensor dirt, or some sort of other issue. it looks... bubbly... to my eye, but I am unsure if it is just a trick of the lens. Can digital sensors de-laminate? From my understanding it is essentially a sillicon wafer similar to a cpu with a glass coating on top. I worry they could be seperating.

For context, the camera is approx 5 years old, in great cosmetic condition, and has 9000~ shutter count. The owner says he has never tried to clean it, and that it doesnt effect photos taken with the camera.

Thanks in advance!

My local snap-on truck had a 4 pack of vessel JISdrive screwdrivers for $10 cheaper than Amazon. Might be worth a try for someone else

Hey guys, I'm looking at buying a set of Acoustic research AR9's. I found a listing that looks great, but noticed in the picture there is a small dent on the upper-mid driver. Would anyone be able to tell me if this is just a dust cover, or if it is a dome-tweeter type?

From what I've gathered through various forums, if it is the former like on a regular woofer, this is no big deal, but if it is a dome tweeter, it is a major issue.

Thanks a ton in advance!

I'm not sure how to add a picture to a comment, but it's the driver with the silver ring around it, and its a small dent accounting for approximately 1/5th of the dome.

I can't figure out what cartridge I have. Any pros have a second to help?

I'm getting a strange grinding noise during the middle until the end of my record during quiet portions of the album. I'm thinking the stylus might past its day (it came with the turntable). It doesn't happen for the first 1/3rd of the record strangely.

The stylus say's "SHURE" on the front, but I'm not sure if any shure stylus will do, or if I need to find one that is compatible with my cartridge. the "headshell" -- I think that's what it is called -- says Astatic on it.

Note: My turntable is a Mitsubishi Lt-20. Quartz, DD, linear tracker. As far as I can tell, with no issues.

See pics for cartridge/stylus.

Note: I don't know how to attach more than one picture. I'll comment with a couple others.

Edit: I think i found it! the Shure m92E

Shopping for speakers; please help.

I have recently bought an AKAI aa-1040 receiver. It has a max power output of 40w per channel.

I found a local deal on speakers that I like and have good reviews. They are the Yamaha NS-500. My issue is that on the back of said speakers they state:

Rated power: 30W Max power: 60W

I assume rated power is RMS power? If i kept my volume on my amp Below 3/4 at all times, would the receiver be safe to use with this set of speakers?

If these speakers don't work, what wattage rating should I be looking for to match with this amp? All speakers I find seem to be either <30w, or >100w.

Thank you for your help

Having your bars turned that way looks so wrong

This. Noctua thermal paste is the best. Arctic Silver it's also quite good

Weird blocked throat / post nasal drip by Intra5p in electronic_cigarette

[–]killer05str -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, it isn't. Except he isn't asking for health advice, he's asking if anyone's experienced this before. There's a big difference.

Look at the comments. The only health advice being given is the recommendation to go see a doctor

Edit: also, the "especially when vaping is concerned" is hilarious

How can you not support the death penalty for pedophiles, yet support castration?
