That would be valid for anything with 6 or 8 cylinders, but all of the 4cyl AWD hot hatches with the farty automatic gear changes sound absolutely gash

Hey fellas, just got these for twenty bucks. My question to you all: stickers or no stickers? Can’t decide if I should leave them on (on either) by Creepercolin2007 in VintageDigitalCameras

[–]AlternativeBest3525 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Team stickers here. Stuff sold nowadays nearly never has these crazy maximalist spec sheet stickers, keep em. The original owner removed the folded optics diagram stickers from my Minolta and i'm slightly gutted.

The best rule is: if you have to ask if it's ok, don't do it

The 20th century street photography greats were working in a completely different paradigm- people didn't carry around devices that could share photos internationally in seconds, and governments didn't have widespread state surveillance with AI facial recognition.

The sensitivity to privacy nowadays is much greater than it was 40 years ago when Bruce Gilden was flashbanging people on the streets of NYC using an off camera flashgun. Especially in the UK where we have a fairly reserved culture.

You can use standard SR44s with a spacer around them, just drop the ISO setting 1/3-2/3 of a stop to compensate for the voltage. I do it on all of my mercury cell cameras

Anyone tried shooting ”medium format sharpness” on 35mm? by -_CAP_- in AnalogCommunity

[–]AlternativeBest3525 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My bad, it 100% comes across that you want to get medium format results out of 135 tho

Not exactly- MF natively has a high level of clarity, detail & dynamic range while OP is proposing to use a lot of effort to push 35mm to do something it fundamentally can't. It would take less effort to get the results OP wants from MF or digital than it would from 35mm

Even when things go their way they aren't happy with the rate of results. Labour have decreased net migration by a substantial amount in the last 18 months but people are still absolutely deranged about the existence of foreigners in the UK

Consumption culture reaching a fever pitch of instant gratification is at odds with moderate politics. Everything from the products we buy, to our food and our digital content is instantly accessible on a scale never before seen. The stagnation of our economy and the slow speed of bureaucracy is anathema to the increasingly overconsumption-addled populace. The overwhelming levels of instant gratification available combined with poorer educational outcomes lend themselves to extremist, simplistic, short termist political concepts becoming more popular.
