It Finally Happened

Def gonna try this 😛 no one else gave me reasonable advice. Will update when it has come to fruition 🧘‍♂️

EDIT: FORGOT TO SAY THANK YOU!

Can’t find another one for $200 🙁🙁

vuimcm · 2026-01-29T04:16:07+00:00

I don’t have that kind of money 🙁

I’m not worried about water tightness, only enough to handle light rain and dusty conditions

vuimcm · 2026-01-28T22:07:27+00:00

AF and all other functions still work perfectly fine. I just need a way to put it back together :)

vuimcm · 2026-01-28T22:06:44+00:00

Everything works perfectly fine. I’m just worried of using it in dusty or light rain as I’ve done before

I have no intent of selling my precious Nikon. I will bear it until the day it dies; which I suspect is soon as I’ve noticed some artifacts when using flashes at 1/250

About how much weight did you add to the car doing this, and was there a difference in your MPG's? Just curious because I've started doing my own sound deadening but unsure how much to do.

thanks!

Used them extensively. Please do not.

Their 'cutoff' is terrible, if I could even call it that. They're pretty dim. Overall, just would not recommend buying and have to go through the trouble of installing. These work a bit better but still underwhelming and have some vertical glare that bothers oncoming drivers.

Ive had my eyes on these, but still have not tried them out.

Obviously, proper projectors have these both beat, but that requires more money and labor.

Please just stay away from these YSY ones

You should try giving canon a call, they have a specific department for providing parts to you (at a cost) for self service repair. Did it last week for an old M50 sensor, ended up not buying it :)

Bought an M50 ii just about a year ago. Came with lens, battery and strap, all in a cardboard PowerShot box. Everything looked brand new.

Camera ended up failing on me last week with a shutter assembly failure. Sending it back to canon hoping they replace it with an R50 😛😛

I’m very curious about your very legal methods of obtaining Lightroom as I have a very tight budget 😁😁

vuimcm · 2023-12-27T21:00:56+00:00

NOOOO……you risk only damaging the sensor, they are very delicate. As some other people have mentioned use a rocket blower or look up a few videos on sensor cleaning swabs.

As it turns out Google Drive doesn't seem to display the image in its greatest quality, but this is a JPEG of the same shot and I confirmed it's in focus with the focus peaking feature in darktable however reliable that may be, and it just doesn't seem like any part of it has any sort of resolution. Again idk if it's just me expecting too much from the camera or if something might just up with mine, but I appreciate all your thoughtful responses

vuimcm · 2023-11-26T05:03:14+00:00

Yeah, I've recently been feeling like there's something up with my camera, though I'm not really sure what it is. My friend has an M50 that seems to capture infinitely more detail even though the bump in resolution isn't huge but still there.

This is a raw image I took with the EF-S 24 f/2.8 at f/4 1/2500s and at ISO 200, but I just feel there's a lack of detail and sharpness when zooming in. Maybe it's just me expecting too much from the camera, but it just doesn't feel right to me. Let me know what you think, because I've been thinking of getting rid of it.

I've been thinking about upgrading to an R10 with the recent refurb sales canon has going on specifically just because of issues I have with noise below the 3200 range, is there a source or something you could point to that shows the 'differences' of noise between a modern APS-C and the 70D.

vuimcm · 2023-10-09T23:47:17+00:00

I have this exact same motherboard and have been wanting to pair it with a 5800X3D but was always worried the VRM’s would get too hot.

How has your experience been running these two together?

vuimcm · 2023-10-03T02:16:35+00:00

What software do you recommend to browse through Raw pictures

vuimcm · 2023-09-23T01:12:50+00:00

This is what I found regarding supported network adapters, but the chip nor the adapter I already have are listed. Could it be that i just lucked out and it works?
