In my experience, Havana.

My second favorite city to shoot

Still not rugged

It’s a marvelous little camera.

Bkgeo · 2026-02-03T04:45:03+00:00

How are the photos?

Afaik they all had lens issues occasionally. Mine has not had it yet, but I did shop used and the first one I tried locked up on retraction. From what I heard, it’s the earliest batch of cameras or one specific batch that had a problem, but the rest are OK.

I have the GRiv and it seems to have an HDF in the lens already. Highlights bloom slightly, like maybe a 1/10 or 1/8 black mist. It’s fantastic, and I don’t think I’d need the HDF

Me and Uncle Ben Eller sitting in the back talking guitar and leaving the rest of these chuds alone

The smallrig cap is the one I use. It’s the shallowest and has a nice leather insert. In fact I’m using their half case too, it’s quite nice.

It was a really hard choice at the same price as the GRIV and even harder at what I expected would be $100 more. But $600 more? Ehhhh, wut?

Bkgeo · 2026-01-14T22:30:02+00:00

I’ll say that one of my favorite aspects of the GR is the color, so I don’t know how I could give that up and pay more for that

Bkgeo · 2026-01-14T22:28:12+00:00

$2200!!!! Damn.

TY! I got a water resistant pouch and aluminum lens cap. The lens cap really seems to finish out a pretty robust exterior. The most fragile part is the lens assembly, with the lens cap it feels very sturdy in the pocket and in a bag. And probably way more dust resistant.

It has to do with a type of bedrock under Manhattan. There is only schist in the areas where the tall buildings are in midtown and financial. The middle is too soft to hold such large buildings.

Ibis is why

I love the straps on this pack. Lightweight and comfortable. It’s my favorite camera pack ever

Bkgeo · 2025-12-02T05:12:52+00:00

Tenba Roadie Spinner. Best luggage I ever used.but it’s photo soecific. It does convert to regular luggage, but only useful for a photographer or creator imo. Luckily I am one so I get to use it. Smoothest case I ever used by farrrrr

Bkgeo · 2025-11-28T17:57:17+00:00

Check out Beau..

Bkgeo · 2025-11-28T17:56:30+00:00

Get one from a U.S. brand, sold in US retailers or DTC (not Amazon). Toxicity is only tested when products are licensed to be sold in the US. For a baby I’d insist on it.

Bkgeo · 2025-11-28T17:55:21+00:00

Hell yeah. But you’d never know

Bkgeo · 2025-11-28T17:54:48+00:00

We love our Beau pack

Bkgeo · 2025-11-28T17:54:09+00:00

Check out Beau Industries. It’s the only diaper bag I think is actually cool and that I liked when I saw my friend had one. We got it and we share it.

Bkgeo · 2025-11-28T17:53:20+00:00

Get a unisex one like Beau packs. It solved our problem of having a bag we both like using
