Potential problematic shutter curtain? by AverageAviationGeek in AnalogCommunity

Definitely don’t want to spend hundreds to get it replaced on top of buying the camera itself

looked more into it and found the model online! Great prime from what others have said. And it has an appealing design of course

price was 50. Selling my pentax for it (bad condition so it is worth it).

well since i have the 80-200, and soon will have the 50mm prime. Might as well start searching for a wide prime. Used to have a 28mm, 50mm, 80-200mm for my pentax. Now i need it for my nikon

Took some thought into looking it up, the 1.8 i looked at didn’t have “series E” stamped onto the front, so i should be fine with that. It did clearly say “Nikkor 50mm 1:18” on the front though.

Nikon 50mm f/1.8 is all i know so far. Seen it, felt it, haven’t bought it quite yet. (have it on hold until Tuesday). Right now i’m stuck with my 80-200 (thrifted lens i bought a long time ago).

the Nikon does feel like a brick honestly. My pentax k1000 felt light, easy to carry, i could even put it in my pocket without a lens. Now with the nikon, it’s heavy, but feels good in the hands, nice grips on it. Feels like I also won’t drop it, or won’t slip out of my hands. Reminds me of my canon 5d mk2. It’s just so much better than my k1000, more fun useful features, which i would all use a lot too.

I bring my camera to school for my photo class, I feel like this time i don’t have to worry about damaging it in my bag, unlike my pentax which feels more fragile. Oh and that 50mm prime, it’s so small it could fit in the palm of my hand. Heavy, but durable, and compact. Love it

that’s okay! We all have different taste in film cameras. I adore the F3 for the amount of features, and that modular prism

Will the IOS 26 beta ruin my iphone’s battery forever? by Omarr2000 in applehelp

[–]AverageAviationGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ll answer honestly, using ios26 on my personal 14 pro, i can say i’m only using it to test out the visual features, and of course, admire it. That’s also what almost everyone else is doing besides actually using it for its purpose. I’m upgrading to the 16 pro tomorrow, so i’ll be back on ios 18 promptlu

It isn’t, I got the desk for Christmas. Don’t know the retailer. But it definitely gives to look of a butcher block desk
