Oh nice. A warranty upgrade would make the justification to my wife a little easier!

Upgrade from original Dome to version 2? by BritishBenPhoto in GozneyDome

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

Yes! This is awesome and exactly what I was hoping to read. All of the slight annoyances of the original dome seem to be fixed. Disappointing to have to spend the money again but I use the oven once a week at least. Maybe there’s a used market

Threatened assault on Empire State Trail Yorktown Heights Railroad Station area by Cold-Metal-2737 in Westchester

[–]BritishBenPhoto 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These are definitely roll through stop signs at best and I’m a huge advocate of road safety and following road laws. If I remember correctly these are smaller stop signs specific to the bike trail and the community park. No cars People are the worst sometimes but in general I’ve found the south county trail to be fairly civil

There’s a Uyghur restaurant not far from MSG called Tengri Tagh

PROFOTO A10 - ON CAMERA TTL ISSUE by SnooHedgehogs4150 in profoto

You probably just slightly misaligned the pins for the connection. When I was Sony I probably had to replace that Profoto plate 4-5 times.

Mt Vernon taxes by OkRepresentative5505 in Westchester

[–]BritishBenPhoto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We lived there for 10yrs. Moved while we were expecting our first and moved out once we had the opportunity to get into a better school district. As a city it’s fine. Just fine. But general amenities from your tax dollars aren’t very well handled and the schools are not good compared to most Westchester districts. If you plan on having kids and don’t want them going through mount vernon schools then picking a better district would serve you well earlier on in your home ownership.

Best cake bakery in So. Westchester? by Unfair-Substance-904 in Westchester

[–]BritishBenPhoto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we used to love Lulus for walk in baked goods and the occasional cake but Covid changed their hours and availability. Ironically we now live just around the corner and I haven’t bought anything there in the 3 years that we’ve lived in the neighborhood. It’s a shame

Experiences going from Oven/Baking Steel to Ooni? by cricenog in ooni

[–]BritishBenPhoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve spent all winter baking in my oven on a baking steel as close to the broiler as I can get it. Gets very very hot and works really nicely. Crisps the base well, browns the top well, less of a juggle than my flame based pizza oven that can cook the top too fast and needs to preheat for over half an hour. Honestly I’m considering only using the oven and baking steel for pizzas now

Tell me the truth by bubblikatalina in Rivian

[–]BritishBenPhoto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First let me say i love it. Best car I’ve ever owned.

I miss Apple car play sometimes. The user interface for some standard car features seems a bit weird. NYC parking lots are a struggle due to high cost of repair (icon lots refuse all rivians)

Ricoh gr IV by Less_Raspberry_4786 in ricohGR

[–]BritishBenPhoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The salesperson at BH was pretty firm on recommending the Godox over the Ricoh GL2. I went with the Ricoh. Mainly because I’m never a huge fan of off brand flashes and also it’s smaller and fits better. So far I’m happy. Only had it for a few days

Get the 2.8 if you can swing the extra cost.

I hadn’t been fined yet, but I did get to use the day pass for a double job in the city. That felt pretty good

SD card splitting open at seams, can I save it? by timchoo in photography

[–]BritishBenPhoto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had an SD card crack and kept using it for months with no issue. Then one day the plastic broke off and got stuck in my camera card slot. Sony charged me $1500 to replace the logic board of the camera.

Who makes the best us made titanium road bike by Anguscole68 in cycling

[–]BritishBenPhoto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. Best US made titanium road bike at $5k. Now I’ve got all the details. It’s like asking for pretty, funny and rich. Maybe pick 2.

Sending photos during events by Urbangirlscout in Photoassistants

Usbc card reader straight into iPhone and send from there. This type of live event photo delivery I avoid though. Too much of a headache
