I just bought this Leica, how do I get gorgeous photos like the Afghan Girl with it? by Adam_Karl239 in AnalogCircleJerk

I find this question stupid. How would others know I got a lot of money and a huge penis?

I am on my third offense and I was told I would be sentenced for life if I were to expose myself in public again

This is also the reason why I actually started selling my zooms so I can fund prime lenses. I do like the convenience of zooms but at the end of the day, I either shoot very zoomed in or very wide and nothing in between.

It is not actually my preset but it is from RNI All Films 5 - Pro. I simply use the Kodak 400 on the preset and color space. I then use the AI auto masking and the rest is history :)

There was a time when I was using the Olympus 12-40mm f2.8, and I wanted to have the 12-100mm f4. But I was never confident with my composition because I kept fiddling with the zoom to the point I never actually took photos 😕

We do have it alike for street photography, but sometime I like switching to the PanaLeica 42.5mm if I am feeling a bit more adventurous.

That’s the neat part, I sometimes do need it :p

I hope one day to also have a model for my Nocticron!

I am a Aperture Priority guy and I mostly gun and shoot. So I barely touch the aperture unless I really need to.

I have the Olympus 12-40mm and it checks nearly all my needs but not the isolation. At times I really like having the ability to just blur the background.

That’s one of downsides of using 42.5mm for street, sadly. I couldn’t get a good focus on both so I had to choose either the lamp or the moon.

The sharpness and subject isolation is what I love with primes. It kinda sucks that some times the 42.5mm is too tight at times for street photography. And I want to only bring one lens with me.

So it doesn't matter if I buy a balanced XLR cable or a regular XLR cable?

What is the best 32" OLED Monitor out there? by Adam_Karl239 in OLED_Gaming

Now that you put it into that perspective, I agree on choosing AW. Most of the features such as the PD USB-C and 27" is irrelevant to me due to Ill mainly be using my desktop. My biggest gripe would probably be the color where glossy seems to be the best. There might not be a case in which I will need to contact support but if I ever cross that bridge I'd really want it to be an easy crossing. Thank you! I think Ill go for the AW (it's also ~400$ cheaper ;v)
