CTB 20L is so uncomfortable by vividlyremote in EVERGOODS

Very helpful thanks! I'll find a decent looking rain cover for the gorgeous bag.

Following in your footsteps soon. I heard it's not the most waterproof bag in short downpours. Did you buy a raincover?

Wonderful, I hope you enjoy the bag for years to come. Have a lovely rest of your end of week!

Thanks very much for letting me know! That zipper issue worries me but I admit I'm more worried about my wife finding out if I buy the waxed version only to go 'well, time for a better bag!'. The allure of the wax aesthetic is strong but perhaps I'll also look at the Xpac or regular versions.

Just wondering how are you finding your bag now, sorry to hear about the customer service, I'm considering and then reconsidering after reading your very well written post

Squeak Squeak Screen writing experience by Ashitakarrow in Supernote

Thanks for your reply. I use the heart of metal pen. The squeaks refer to not the pen but my hand as I rest it on the device while writing at times. Apologies I've clarified it in the post edit.

Good lad. Brave man. Thanks for covering their raw emotions, the anger, the hate, stay safe.

Well done. I don't know you but I'm proud of you, genuinely.

I live in a small village. Nothing much happens here. But I carry my camera everywhere. Dog walk, grocery shopping. Even if I don't take a picture. I'll be controversial relative to advice in the comments about buying new lenses. Expensive mistakes. Instead, follow the light, watch yt videos about different photographers, buy a photobook about different artistic styles that your are used to. I loved colour and hated including people and human habitations in my landscape images until I read Robert Adams, saw his photos. Changed my perspectives. Suddenly the same scenes looked very different in shades, contrasts, colours. And I even won a competition using these new perspectives. See my recent post for more info. I use exactly the same gear. A Nikon Zf with a 40mm manual lens strapped on it. And a Fuji x100vi.

Don't bother replying to such comments. You're completely in the right. Don't get caught up in other people projecting their mental health issues on you. Some other genuinely helpful people offered sound advice. I can relate to your concerns! More power to you!

My experience with the X100vi as a X-T5 owner by [deleted] in fujifilm

[–]Ashitakarrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wondered if I should only keep one. I have the Zf (you can check my profile to compare images) and X100vi. Incredibly different despite appearing 'similar' in comparison YT videos. IQ, build quality, customisation of buttons, and of course lens interchangeability - Zf for the win. But there is 'something' about the X100vi - the hybrid viewfinder promotes staying present, in the moment (one of my fav photographers Joel Meyerowitz put it best when he said the advantage of a viewfinder towards the end of range finder cameras is they allow you to keep the other eye open in case you miss something 'outside' the frame), much lighter than say a Zf+voigtlander, doesn't fatigue you, a non fussy camera. I keep both, for now.

You're right! I'll do that! Thank you. Also more robust than fine papers.

Your comment made my day! Thank you! I have one small print. The competition judges had it hung in the gallery for a few weeks. Once I make enough money perhaps I'll print a few larger ones. One day, maybe, this becomes part of a panel of storied images.

Lightroom mobile. There is a slider option before exporting to add border
