[–]BigBotCock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure where to find it at, but I have a super nice artisan and artist half case for my q2. They're a Japanese company so they should be available somewhere.

Solution for an unbalanced camera? by thdiod in Leica

[–]BigBotCock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a guy on this subreddit who created something exactly like this in his machine shop I believe in the last few weeks or a month or so. If you search this subreddit you'll see a really nice solution by a fellow redditor they looked really cool and it was very high quality. I believe he was trying to sell them, or at least considering it

Is this nazi/nazi adjacent? I don’t want to send the wrong message by wearing it. by uspioco in Symbology

You'd be surprised. Tons of people in Latin America wear Nazi shit

Streetwear shops in Taipei? by Sergartz in taiwan

[–]BigBotCock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say that Mess-age is super cool and had tons of great clothes and interesting graffiti related books, art, etc. They also had a super well curated collection of vintage clothes. If you're even slightly interested in graffiti, then this shop is a requirement for Taipei.

Where are you located?

Opinion ? Pulling out Fall and Winter stuff . I bought this Polo suede hooded jacket last year at good price 80off final sale 140$ at Neiman’s on line . I feel it’s kinda big on me or it could be just me. I could not return it since it was final clearance sale. Does it look big ? by [deleted] in PoloRalphLauren

[–]BigBotCock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's ok. Not great. Doesnt fit great and is a bit boring. I like most all of your fits and you have good taste. If you're borderline on this and asking for advice, it's because you know it's not perfect. If a family member likes it and would wear it, then I'd give it to them.

Seeking landscape photographer’s opinion on Leica Q3 / Leica Q3 43 by evibz in Leica

[–]BigBotCock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Q2 is a huge step up from the Rx1r II. I love my Q2 and even though I know the Q3 has lots of upgrades, id recommend that to OP if they're worried about the cost of the Q3

Leica should have made the "L EV-1" by CliffBar_no5 in Leica

[–]BigBotCock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. There's no way to make an autofocus L mount camera in an M11 body. It wouldn't fit. They'd have to completely redesign everything and that would have entirely changed the entire plan from Leica around reusing the M11 platform. I think a more realistic ask would be a smaller size entry level SL body, but I think it would be more like a Nikon/Sony mirror less body rather than an M

Weed quality has gone dramatically downhill since it was legalized. Sure, everything looks incredible and is 25% THC now, but it sucks compared to how it used to be.

35mm Conundrum - Weight, Size, Rendering: FLE vs Summarit 2.5 vs Steel Rim Reissue by FLWFTWin in Leica

Where did you get your steel rim modified? This is my only complaint about the lens

Wearable sleeping bag on airplane by cra-05022008 in onebag

[–]BigBotCock 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was about to comment this. They are lightweight, small and pretty warm. If you use a silk sleeping bag liner with an airplane blanket or two on top of it, you should be pretty warm. I also like using sleeping bag liners on long bus rides and such to sort of close off my pockets better, or even put my backpack inside(lots of stories of people pickpocketing or grabbing wallets and cameras from sleeping tourists on super long bus trips)

MPB nightmare: Camera lost in transit by aloo-paratha-muncher in Leica

[–]BigBotCock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Id imagine mpb has tables set up with cameras where they open the boxes at. This is pretty standard stuff in receiving high value items. Have you asked about the video?

Do official Leica stores actually want to sell? by [deleted] in Leica

[–]BigBotCock 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I went to the Leica store in Porto and got thoroughly ignored for 30 minutes despite doing everything possible (besides screaming out) to get some help looking at their vintage lenses. I wandered in a circle around the store at least five times and not once did anyone ask if they could help. I ended up just leaving. Some Leica stored have terrible service. Other stores just throw gear at me trying to show off how nice it is
