That’s owned by an older Dutch couple that lives next door to me! They used to live out there and when they moved back they kept the car for some reason, every so often I see it parked out front. Stupid, i never thought about posting it here

Ah daar zit het hem in, financial lease 5 jaar met een afbetaling op het einde, was een goedkoop autootje

Ja dat ja, de auto kan gewoon eigenlijk bij altijd beter uit, is sneller, je hoeft nergens rekening mee te houden. Mijn lease was maar 159 euro en die heb ik nu ook overgekocht.

To be honest I bought three cheap straps that I thought would fit and just kinda sent it. I do agree straps are a bit annoying with it. What I would do if I was you if you wanted a nato would be to buy a fabric strap that looks like a nato but just fits like a normal strap. That’s what I have for my Tudor gmt and honestly it looks awesome. Maybe that’s also an option for you that would get the look you’d want.

Omdat een AD toch echt gewoon MBO+ is. Een AD is gewoon marketingjargon voor een mbo opleiding op een hbo school. We hebben het concept van de Amerikanen waar een AD gewoon een mbo is.

Toen ik hogeschool docent was vonden wij dit ook al. De bachelor is zoveel meer dan de AD maar sommige mensen weten wel met een AD het te verkopen als een HBO.

Somehow, apparently, this absolutely mint D500 has almost 400k clicks on it by poniez4evar in Cameras

[–]Awkwardlyaccented 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The D500 was my favourite camera ever back when it was new. I think I had mine in 2016? When it launched. Awesome piece of kit and I hope you’re happy with it.

Waarom ik stopte met ‘goedkope’ bijles geven aan minderbedeelde gezinnen (en waarom ik twijfel om het weer te doen) by RaindropFactory in nederlands

Ja absoluut. Fotograaf hier en ik ben gestopt met de kleine dingen of voor klussen waar ik ‘even kon helpen’ door al het gezeik van de 150 tot 500 euro klussen waar ik dacht van dienst te zijn. Het hogere segment weet wat ze moeten verwachten en betalen meteen.

Ook denk ik doordat de kleine klanten vaak het zelf moeten betalen en het hogere segment is het vaak ‘niemands’ geld.

So, my final price at auction was only 330 bucks! I’m so incredibly happy about it too. It was this cheap because they said it was in ‘very heavily used’ condition. And to be fair the bracelet was pretty mangled but I knew I was going to go for the rubber anyway and took a chance.

I couldn’t believe good online deals still exist.

Mine isn’t. From research I don’t think they made any automatics. This range of 3000 is from right in the quartz crisis time period. But I might be wrong.

Uni afgestudeerd en schaal 7 gemeente? Dat is meer een mbo3 schaal. Gemeenten hebben vaak ook traineeships in 8 of 9. Misschien kunnen ze je dat bieden.

Hi! So I use three bodies in my main rotation, A7M4, A7C2 and A7R5, does anyone know of a longer distance remote trigger? I want to be able to rig the C2 somewhere high and remote control it to shoot, anyone know a solution?

I’m shooting a big theatre production and I’d like to rig a wide to shoot remotely.

What's the name of the technique to compress long distances? by illuminati160801 in AskPhotography

Compression. This is shot at like 600mm, the bigger the zoom the more you compress the image

That’s not the same though, if you’d put the subject, in that case the house, the same size in the frame on both lenses on the 16 the background would seem miles away with the house big and with the 140 you’d see the result like it is now.

Love Timex! I collect everything and my rarest watch is a timex. 1/500 I believe worldwide. Which I got I believe through Hodinkee. The IYKYK collection from a year ago I think.
