      Doesn't matter what is being sponsored I still skipped over it. Still annoying to have ads purposely placed in the video itself instead of them popping up on random spots in the video which you can skip after 5 seconds. Another sell out but great video anyway.

    Note to most people: DO NOT clean an image sensor with a q-tip and alcohol unless you REALLY know what you're doing. For most image sensors you should use a lint-free microfiber flexible swab designed for cleaning image sensors and methanol instead of isopropyl alcohol. Otherwise you run a major risk of permanently damaging the sensor.

    • @ЛексЛексыч

      Image quality during the motorcycle ride is very bad. It confused me because I have a 1st gen Gopro and the image is better than that one. That's probably because he removed the coating, for sure. But great restoring nonetheless

    • @sandrodunatov485
      @sandrodunatov485 3 ปีที่แล้ว +53

      obviously correct, but we are all here for the spirit of the game. An old GoPro isn't worth all that patience and expert effort anyway. There are plenty good used ones, but this is a restoration channel. And there is no human way to re-apply a correct factory-grade coating on a lens without proper industrial equipment. So degraded as it is, it works and it looks the part, which in a world of disposable equipment and planned obsolescence is worth commending.

      Call me crazy, but I would prefer the complete ad break. That way I can just skip ahead in the video without having to hear or see it (the creator gets paid whether people watch it or not, so skipping it is a-okay). On this one I had to keep watching as a garbage service by a garbage company that can't secure servers properly was advertised to me. Not a great way to do it.

    Ah yes, I remember the days of the older GoPros. My brother in law had a couple of the Hero 3 and 4s he took to Afghanistan when he was fighting in the war. Didn't see much combat with the video footage he got, but was very interesting how things went on over there.

    If I sent to you my 2DS which has one of the screen oversaturated (probably a problem of the inside board) could you repair it and send it back to me? I'm a big fan I'd love to get it repaired from you 💕

      I know of an NTSC GameCube that needs a little work done, too. Apparently it cuts on and off repeatedly, and the disc reader isn't working in some manner. Former may just be because of dirt.

    • @nooaiden
      @nooaiden 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think for a low cost/quick fix, it is what it is-that is if you already have glass polish and the tools. I don't think a replacement lens is really that expensive

    • @pfadiva
      @pfadiva 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, it does. I suspect the scratches were only in this coating (anti-reflective coating or AR) which made it fairly easy to polish out. Scratches in the actual glass would be harder to deal with. Without this coating, the images won't be as nice as they would be with it but this way you get a usable image without the scratch artifacts. A nice restoration of a very ruggedly-used GoPro.
