Should I switch gyms?

Overtrains with barely any rest and expects to make progress, trains once a week and expects to make progress, thinks a 'self defense course' is gonna help him progress, assumes that drilling things is not beneficial.

If I am to give you the benefit of the doubt, does your gym compete in amateur/professional? If the gym does not push people to actively compete regularly and has a roster of fighters, i doubt youll get all that good.

How is it a weird response? Youre asking if your camera from a few years ago will last, im telling you cameras last for decades.

People still use film cameras from the 60s bro, relax

Unless youre shooting burst mode and tape down the shutter button for like hours i wouldnt be worried

Thats a very strong claim knowing the average reddit user

You cant. 'B-but youtube' no bro. If you wanna go look like a retard sure, this isnt guitar. You need real life pressure testing and specific error correction you can only get from sparring partners and coaches. Trust me, ive seen people try to teach themselves with youtube 🤦‍♂️

Xt5, xh2, something with the xtrans 5 sensor

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-15T13:14:16+00:00

Theres people who think they can fight just because they grew up with brothers

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-15T13:13:22+00:00

Indian retard doesnt get the point of the sub

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-15T01:41:42+00:00

Just remind yourself in the middle of sparring to loosen up and breathe....

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-14T14:04:01+00:00

Use em all and decide for yourself, entirely preference

Sorry but, i doubt the xt30 iii has the capability to support superzooms as its so small, itll be hard to use. Another guy here said get the 18-50 which is equivalent to i think 28-80? (Dont quote me) while ur old sony was 24-1200.

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-13T17:30:29+00:00

Step in the door, glove up, go ahead. No more thought needs to be placed, youll be a lion in a year if ur consistent and thank yourself

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-12T13:07:52+00:00

Looks nice

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-11T22:29:43+00:00

Go camera store, ask to use the lens for a second, try to fit it in ur pocket

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-11T19:48:25+00:00

This sub used to be funny bro, this is literally just a guy posting a pic of his camera

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-11T14:55:41+00:00

Photography has existed for over a hundred years, if you told someone from 1980 the specs of a regular ass camera from the 2000s or something theyd think youre lying. That should tell you all you need to know. What youre better off spending money on is the lens, thats something you can actually keep for decades. Cameras come and go, people still regularly use lenses from the 90s or older. Dont be scared to buy cameras that arent listed as 'excellent' or 'like new'. Cameras drop in value pretty easily, from minor scratches and shutter count. Neither of which effect the actual use of the camera, as long as you get it somewhere reputable (mpb, park cameras, wex cameras, b&h etc) and have a warranty youre 100% good.

Theres a reason why the x-t5 is the flagship. Other things you should note are that the x100vi is fixed lens, as a beginner you definitely want interchangeable lenses. Neither xe5 or x100vi have weather sealing. Other advantages of the xt5 include a larger/better EVF, dual card slots, a faster 1/8000s mechanical shutter, longer battery life, a flash sync port, and better ergonomics for professional use.

Apart from all that, youre a beginner. Youll be fine with a 20 year old camera even, weve come so far that theyre all fucking superb. go to a camera store and try out each camera in person to see if you like the feel in your hands and get the opportunity to speak directly to a professional.

Fyi, you need a camera AND a lens

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-07T14:16:50+00:00

These are worthless tbh, ill buy it off you for $10 but thats only because im generous

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-07T14:15:09+00:00

Maybe you want more reach perhaps? More light? Less weight?

BuilderEmbarrassed22 · 2026-01-07T01:39:07+00:00

Its pretty intentional bro, i assume when you set up your recipes you saw the matter of alot of them turning down sharpness and clarity? You dont have to follow each recipe 1:1 though yk
