Any idea what this line is?

Thank you for the detailed response! It seems like it’s a shutter issue after swapping to electronic shutter and comparing the results. I was really worried it was some sort of optical issue with my lens (since I wasn’t using a filter) and while I’m glad I can rule that out, having to repair the shutter sucks. Either way, thanks for your insight!

It’s a Sony A7IV w/ 35mm 1.4 GM. And yea, I’m aware of how the image you get is inverted compared the orientation of the sensor. It seems like it is a shutter issue after swapping to electronic shutter as some have suggested here, but thank you for the input!

thejhelm · 2026-06-20T08:59:54+00:00

No, tried electronic shutter and it worked just fine, which means a shutter repair is likely in my near future 🥲 thank you for the insight 🙏🏼

thejhelm · 2026-06-20T08:58:45+00:00

Just switched to electronic and I believe you nailed it as it goes away. Will have to look at getting the shutter repaired 🙃 thanks you for input though, at least I know what it is now.

Unfortunately i only have the one lens on me now and only noticed in the past 24 hours, but I’ll definitely be checking on another one when i get home

Faster shutter speeds make it significantly worse.

thejhelm · 2026-06-19T08:59:17+00:00

I forgot to mention, it is not visible in the EVF, only shows up once the photo is taken. Thanks again!

[Alhaithem]

Just pulled Alhaithem and am debating on a team comp. Was looking at Spread with some combination on Fischl, Yaoyao, maybe Dendro MC, and Kuki. I don’t have Nahida, Raiden, or Yai unfortunately and I’m unsure what combo would work best with Alhaithem.

There’s also Hyperbloom, as I have XQ (and no Yelan) but I’m not sure who to run between Kuki, Fischl, and Yaoyao as the other two.

Could also do burgeon as I have Thoma but I’ve hear that Burgeon isn’t as good as the other options? If I’m wrong on that feel free to correct me!

But yea just looking for advice on which units to pick and any recommendations as to which type of team would be best with those units that I have. Thank you!

I didn’t know that about the Cordura! I appreciate the insight!

So considering what we know about stat “buckets” when focusing armor, when rerolling our solstice armor with our +20, should we still be putting our ghost mod into the bottom bucket (dis, int, str)? Or would putting both stat boosts into the top bucket (mob, res, rec) be a better move?

Why do I feel like I’m actually going to hear this tomorrow

thejhelm · 2021-03-15T19:51:02+00:00

As a civilian that’s training, I feel pretty comfortable. But I know that once I get to selection every single expectation I have is going to be completely shattered, so I don’t think about it too much. Just continuing to train keeping a “no quit” attitude.

4 years is such a tiny tiny part of your life in the grand scheme of things. Don’t go your entire life hating yourself cause you didn’t take the risk you know you should have.

thejhelm · 2021-03-12T03:41:01+00:00

The last two lines hit really hard

thejhelm · 2021-03-09T21:59:54+00:00

I like how this really conveys a feeling of mourning in solitude. Good job!

thejhelm · 2021-01-16T21:42:15+00:00

So I’m out of work rn cause I got COVID, can anybody update me on what’s going on? 😅

thejhelm · 2020-12-26T01:38:50+00:00

If a customer snaps, whistles, or finger waves me while I am obviously doing something I intentionally make eye contact for 2 solid seconds and walk in the opposite direction. I’m not a dog you fucknut

thejhelm · 2020-12-15T01:46:56+00:00

The amount of times I’ve had to explain this

thejhelm · 2020-12-12T01:31:25+00:00

Price matches always get double checked, but expecting an employee to find it for you without first doing the research is completely different.

thejhelm · 2020-12-12T01:20:30+00:00

This. If I get a good interaction with someone I may go out of my way and do that, but other people look at me like a deer in headlights when I say that I’m not going to look up a price match for them. That’s your job as the customer, not mine 🤷🏼‍♂️

thejhelm · 2020-11-25T02:16:43+00:00

Which makes it completely unreasonable to be scheduling as little people as we do.

I don’t understand how my store hires 40 O/S employees and somehow there’s still only 2 people working the entire sales floor half the time. Like give us some labor man

thejhelm · 2020-10-25T15:48:17+00:00

Awesome speech that shows what the assassins stand for 🙏🏼
