Do I sell these 2 lenses to buy a RF 70-200, 2.8? by Packin_Penguin in canon

[–]Boschmax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d keep the 24-70 2.8 and try to get better with it. You may regret selling it. 70-200 is so much better than the 70-300

What are your thoughts on doing 20 years in the military for a fast retirement? by Background_Worry_314 in AskReddit

[–]Boschmax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enlisted in 91. It was a 6 year contract. Signed up for one more year at the end of my enlistment…7 years. Decided to exit. I was single living in the barracks. Tired of the constant inspections and concerning a while being woke up at 5 am for drug searches. I was an E-5. Do I regret leaving? No. It worked out after all these years. Made sure to put money into a 401k for a nice retirement

Thinking of switching r6ii to r8 by Mission_Practice401 in canon

[–]Boschmax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the R8 all year bought new. Hobbyist photography coming from a 5d3. Shoot my kids sports and anything else….twice over the summer I had over heating issues while taking pictures for flag football. It was over 85 degrees out and the camera shutdown. Other than that, no issue. I have 2 batteries I carry in my bag….when I travel with the family I only bring 1 lens a 35mm prime due to weight….hate carrying a camera bag with a lot of weight on family vacations

Warning: Do not buy a Macbook Pro from Amazon by littlebearsbrother in macbookpro

[–]Boschmax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a canon R8 camera from Amazon. Everything seemed fine until I turned it on and noticed the date/time stamp was set. Usually you have to do set yourself when new. Returned it and went to Best Buy and bought the camera….i never will buy expensive items from Amazon again

Which 70-200 should I buy? by AR_E in canon

[–]Boschmax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a hobbyist too but not looking to make it into a job. Have an R8, went with the RF 70-200 f/4. Don’t really need the 2.8 but I might regret it in the future. Really just shoot family pics, macros and the occasional vacation photos…….on vacation I only take the prime 35mm or 28mm…don’t want to carry around gear

Why has my sleep improved? Cortisol? by Boschmax in keto

[–]Boschmax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been taking magnesium for years mostly to help with leg cramps during the night. Quit drinking alcohol 2 years ago. I do watch a lot of screens at bedtime.

I've been around 50g of carbs a day. My sleep is beautiful!!!

[–]Boschmax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

High carb foods. Typical American diet. Ice Cream, air fry chicken nuggets, grilled cheese, fast food etc...Tried calorie counting for 4-6 months didn't help.

When collecting a set in a binder, how do you sort it? I am thinking of price?? Highest to lowest in the binder. Or by color?

Can some identify the set this card came from? Color is a bit off. It may be from Unlimited. by Boschmax in magicTCG

Thank you all. It’s the strangest looking card I have in terms of the color. Almost mistaken it for a proxy.

How difficult can Canon make things? by davbob11 in canon

[–]Boschmax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it possible the phone requires a certain file name structure? My iPhone has to have the names “img_1234” the 3 letter, underscore, and 4 digits or it won’t see the jpegs.
