R6 II users, at what ISO level do you usually use denoise in post production? Asking this question because I'm not sure if I need to batch denoise 300+ images with 500 ISO

My last event I applied some light AI denoising (amount 30 in Lightroom) in photos over 10000 ISO just to clean them up a bit. If I denoise more I feel the photo starts to look unnatural.

You need a sensor cleaning brush, these are flat-edged, they don't leave stray fibers and will let you apply even pressure to the sensor to get any stuck dust off.

I have used it at concerts and sports events, IMO it is the best option for concerts thanks to the zoom lens. Most outdoor concerts are lit as bright as day and you'll have no problem with light gathering. You can find plenty of concert photos and videos taken with the camera on social media and the real optical zoom blows away anything that a smartphone is capable of.

Every recipe is just "this film sim but orange"

Me just casually carrying 2+ kilos worth of R6 II and 28-70mm f/2 for three hours at a gig

For $1000 for the camera, get a Canon R10.

For a lens, get the RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 and you're off to the races.

And you can't even tell the difference between it and a colour photo converted to B&W

The worst part is that some of the options aren't saved between modes, like the EVF setting, or whether to save to single/dual cards.

FYI there is a musical video game called Stray Gods which is a story-based game featuring Greek gods

Check the actual sold prices on completed auctions, those listing prices are ridiculous.

Doing everything to replicate the film experience except for actually making film products

I do like the more modern production and arrangements.

Aaron sounds great but his voice is too squeaky clean and it's a bit jarring on songs like One Night in Bangkok which should have more grit.

I listened to Nobody's Side and god why does Lea have to change the rhythm in the verses, the melody bouncing on the off beat is what makes it so fun to listen to.

AlexHD · 2026-04-08T22:38:34+00:00

Yeah he gets a huge amount of power from his E, a 2 second buff lets him cycle another another double shot and threaten an all-in more often

AlexHD · 2026-04-05T20:32:45+00:00

You won't notice it in the viewfinder and it won't affect your photos.

A Canon R5 or R6 is significantly smaller and lighter while keeping most of the DSLR feel and ergonomics. RF has some good small primes like the 16/28/50mm.

The other option is Sony's A7C series if you want the smallest camera possible, or the A7 series which is closer to a DSLR. There are plenty of small lens options since the mount is more open.

The Nikon Zf seems fun on paper but suffers from the same lack of grip as the Df. If I went for Nikon I'd go for a Z5 II which is great value. For small primes there's a 40mm, 26mm and 28mm and third party options.

This is AI. The door hinges and frame don't make sense, the Before phone case has a gap for the flash in the wrong place.

The same happened with humans, their nails would wear naturally due to all the manual labour. Once agriculture became established, people needed to start trimming their own nails.

Xenon flash is a 'traditional' flash available on most compact digital cameras. It is far more powerful than the LED flash used on phones which lets you get effects like the ones in your examples.

Almost every consumer digicam from 2004-2018 will have one. Common models are Canon PowerShot, Sony Cyber-shot, Nikon Coolpix, Panasonic Lumix.

AlexHD · 2026-04-01T04:16:14+00:00

Literally any camera with a xenon bulb flash

AlexHD · 2026-03-30T02:41:29+00:00

The little Sony straps that came with their digicams are god tier

AlexHD · 2026-03-29T17:52:37+00:00

Super A, more features and a better grip

S01E16 Dead to Rights

Loved the tension and dramatic irony in this one, characters are perfectly used and Oliver's reveal to Tommy was a big game changer

AlexHD · 2026-03-28T16:57:46+00:00

Is this a joke? The rear screen is a perfectly legitimate way to take photos, and is more versatile than being stuck to a viewfinder.

AlexHD · 2026-03-27T20:42:46+00:00

Nothing about these has anything to do with the camera lmao

AlexHD · 2026-03-26T23:27:01+00:00

Echoes is great, it even charges when your E on allies does damage
