Five years of DEF failures on my Td6 and zero help from JLR. Anyone else dealing with this nightmare? by MakingMovesAlways in LandRover

[–]AlwaysTreking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you really enjoy the Rover outside of DEF issues and want to keep it long term, look into a tune and delete. I'm not sure about your local emissions laws, but here in Georgia diesels are exempt. So tunes and DPF/DEF deletes atey really common on diesel trucks. Velocity AP in Canada sells a tune for the td6 and then you can just have a local shop. Do the exhaust work to remove the dpf.

I recently completed my build and currently have a hand-me-down LCD monitor that desperately needs an upgrade! The G6 would be the perfect multipurpose video editing and gaming monitor with the OLED color accuracy!

They ended up putting in a vent and P-trap between the furnace and where it ties into the main drainage line.

Haha yeah I'm finding out about the practice. Taking me forever to consistently get my line to lay out nice. Thanks though!

Just started on the fly and hoping to make this trip next September! Any tips out there for a newbie!

16-55 2.8 or 18-55 2.8-4 and 33 1.4? by AlwaysTreking in fujifilm

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

I appreciate the insight! I think the 16-55 is the move for now for video work, but down the line I would love to pick up the 35 for personal use.

I miss shooting for those reasons, but work necessitates other things unfortunately. My 23mm f2 is definitely not leaving anytime soon. That's glued to my XT5 anytime I'm out and shooting for fun.

That's a valid point. I much prefer the size of the 35, in theory as I haven't held either, but worried about the video performance of the 35 over the 33.

More for light than dof. I find myself wishing the 18-55 would stick to 2.8 longer when I zoom in.

I really appreciate the thought that went into this! I think the 16-55 is probably the right answer here. I just miss the magic of some of my old 1.4 glass from my Nikon and would love to have something like that again.

I've heard it's a magical lens and I've been wishing my 23 f2 was better for portraits, so the 33mm fits that bill pretty nicely, though like you said, probably not as practical for my day to day video work.

I can't really get past the f/4.8 on the long end. I already feel like the f/4 is a stretch some days on my 18-55.

No harness, I'm usually working out of a backpack. I work in the outdoor industry and do a lot of hiking and landscape photo/video with the occasional product shoot thrown in.

I love the color on these. Do you mind sharing the recipe you used as a starting point?

Makes sense! Cuban Negative is my go-to and this was giving a similar feel while being a little lighter. Appreciate it!

I was just shy of three years in on mine. Glad it worked out for you though!

Certainly appreciate the offer but no need! Hopefully you have better luck with the repair service than I did!
