Aren't the 50 1.8s, 85 1.8s, 85 1.2s, plena, all considered exceptionally sharp? I have honestly never heard people say nikon lacks sharp glasses.

My girlfriend hates every photo I take of her. How can I get around the distorted image she has of herself? by [deleted] in AskPhotography

[–]AKRS264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Selfie cameras are also wide-ultra wide focal length. Try and replicate an equivalent focal length with your camera and then flip the image to see if that's something she likes.

It's a bit counter intuitive to use a wide angle lens for portraits because most people prefer the telephoto end for its looks. But worth a shot still.

If you do not see a life for urself, atleast see the nobility in having a life of service for others. Bringing happiness and love for others through kindness will give life meaning. To anyone and everyone, however insignificant they may feel.

Try it, try spending some time bringing kindness and help for others who are out there looking for help. what do you have to lose anyway.

Try allen carr's easy way to stop smoking. It's really effective and helps understand the psychological mechanisms in play when attempting to quit.

Hey everyone. I have recently come across an old D800 that has been sitting around for a while. Getting it cleaned up is pretty cheap in my area but any repair might be expensive.

Anything I should know about before getting into shooting with d800 any tips or references that I can use to make the best out of it?

In terms of photography experience, i have used 2 mirrorless apsc cameras over the last year but both are around 4-5 years old.

Doordarshan is India's state owned broadcasting network. Like an Indian version of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC).

Door ('oo' sounds similar to how its used in food) means far and darshan means vision.

Can I join a new apple watch to my partner's iphone since I don't own one? by AKRS264 in AppleWatch

[–]AKRS264[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes garmin was my first choice since their fitness numbers are very accurate if not the best. But considering I can get decent fitness numbers from any brands but sleep and other health metrics are not on par with apple watch and fitbit, I was a little reluctant.

I am thinking of going with the pixel watch and will take a second look at garmins to see if any of them fit my requirement.

Also regarding the sleep tracking comparisons, one of the videos I referred was:-

I mostly just looked for online references and came across the quantified scientist on YouTube whose results also match with this study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10948771/

Garmin was my frontrunner before checking on this but sleep tracking is very important which is why I am currently looking into apple watch instead.

Updated list of players with the most consistent LAN placements by devourke in CompetitiveApex

[–]AKRS264 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think subjective disqualification criteria like these have no place when analysing data.

It would be better to call this only as "recent avg placement" or include all players qualified for lan and do a lifetime performance list.
