Relais HC/HP qui subitement vrombrit très fort: inquiétant ?

Mon relais de chauffe-eau est subitement devenu très bruyant. On dirait un haut-parleur sur un signal 50Hz. C'est inquiétant (ça annonce une panne à court ou moyen terme)?

C'est facile a remplacer (tableau électrique aux normes 2004 avec un disjoncteur par ligne)? Electronicien dans une autre vie, raisonnablement outillé (multimètre).

Meilleur substitut pour une petite cheville dans du bois?

Bonjour,

Je veux rajouter une tringle dans une penderie.

Le support de tringle vient avec des vis de 3.5mm. La penderie a déjà des trous au bon endroit, avec le bon espacement, pour des taquets d'étagère. Sauf que ces trous font 4.5mmm. Ils font grosso-modo la bonne profondeur, le bout de la vis mordra 3mm dans le bois (sans dépasser de l'autre côté).

Les chevilles dans cette taille ne sont pas faciles à trouver, et il faudrait peut-être un peu plus de marge entre la vis et la cheville de toute façon.

Donc, quel est le meilleur moyen d'assurer la prise des vis dans les trous? Cure-dents découpés? Bloc de colle chaude? Grosse cheville redécoupée? Vu le montage il n'y aura pas de traction, mais surtout du cisaillement, et ce sera pour pendre des choses assez légères.

Merci pour vos idées.

This is a fully manual wide-angle zoom lens with shift. The first three pictures are straight out of the camera, no perspective correction has been applied in post.

The last one is a shift panorama. One picture is taken with the lens shifted to the right, the other with the lens shifted to the left, the resulting pictures overlap exactly and can be combined in PS/Gimp with very little work (only had to deal with a windsock that drooped between the two shots)

Any suggestions for a semi-advanced tripod, easy to carry around?

So, my trusty Manfrotto is fine, but is a bit over 2kg and is 70cm folded, so I'm not making any friends in the public transports around here. So I'm looking to complement it with something easier to carry:

* Usage: urban photography with shift lens, probably a bit of astro and panorama, and various long exposure shots * Small (this seems to be the most important part) * Lightweight * 140cm minimum, 150cm better (without head) * Quick to set up * No opinion on center column * No opinion on lever or twist lock (twist looks more compact, but lever could be more resistant to sand) * Camera+head+lens will be 2.5kg tops * No need for a head, unless it is a small leveling/bowl one (I'll add my leveling head, or my gimbal head). If there is one it should be removable/replaceable * A reasonable price would be under €250 but I'm been know to fall for expensive things if they are worth it.

I looked at the Sirui Traveller 7 & 5, the monopod option in the 7 looks nice, any experience? (I also have a monopod, sized for a DSLR and a 2Kg zoom, now that I'm mirrorless I could use something smaller). But I have that lingering suspicion that it won't fold completely with any head bigger than the original ballhead.

But are there other/better options?

Pixel freeing that one brain cell

Pixel is our Part Time Cat (actual owner on vacation). There is a debate whether the scratchpad/mat is too small for him or not. IMHO he feels very comfortable in it. What do you think?

Chat et savon de Marseille

Vacances obligent j'héberge le chat d'un membre de la famille. Je lui a fait sniffer un bout de savon de Marseille traditionel (le vrai, celui qui sent un peu la cendre) et ça l'a rendu fou, bien pire que l'herbe à chats.

C'est un comportement connu?

Stray `comstate.to3` file found at the root of an SD card from an R7

https://preview.redd.it/myu1sj6ur9bh1.png?width=560&format=png&auto=webp&s=0020e2e6e50cd0639f1a8258562a95817073749a

First time I see this. The file seems small an innocuous. I see some mentions of a `comstate.tof` file that would happen on Canon DSLRs (those that use CF cards...). Has anyone else seen this? Is there an explanation?

Edit: it seems to be related to the `Jump to first image of scene` review mode
