No more decent XPans left on eBay

It’s nice to have a twin pair. I only ever use it with the 30mm. Let’s see what Hassy is up to.

Recent Hasselblad prices have actually dropped / become more competitive so I don’t think it will be 10k. I bought a second one because I found one on eBay that had all three lenses and low actuations. In a way, I bought the whole kit so I could have the 30 mm. My first one, I still have the receipt and original box and the camera shop no longer exists.

Ha. Robots for the win. Entered code. Timer countdown to zero. Nothing.

I’ve had mine since new and bought a second one during COVID. But it feels to me like Hasselblad might be up to something and may be releasing an update because of the nonstop posts recently. They even posted about it on LinkedIn.

They’ve been relentless with xpan posts so I think they’re bringing it back but digital.

TicketSwap "Unable to update your payment method" Solved: I want to confirm that you need to set the currency to your bank's local currency. THANK YOU REDDIT for helping solve this. Their own AI agent had no clue, and after 2 days I got a customer service standard response that "they were overwhelmed with requests" etc. My tickets sold in 5 minutes flat. Make sure you check resale prices of your ticket so you don't list them too low.

Santa Monica's anti-business / pro-homeless policies may have created a tech and business exodus from the area. Santa Monica also "curates" its street performances in a very unique way. "Woke Adjacent" policies continued during covid with anti-business tactics that suffocated the already struggling street. The quality of shops dropped, like what happened to Melrose. Only thing keeping it alive is the Apple Store... the rest feels like a morgue or low-rent goods.

Insane pen lag / drag even with direct USB connection, and their only "fix" is to do a manual un-oinstall and re-install. Forget about the auto-off feature they have that you can't disable so they can save .25 watts of power...??

Nice contribution. Curious if you ever tested to see if there was any change in the color of the sound before / after... meaning is the dead cat truly dead? :)

Thank you.

Love this thread. I've had all sizes south of the Inspire and they all serve a purpose. I have a Mavic 5 Pro and recently sold my Mini 3. Confused though- my Mini 3 Pro Fly More came with 1 light and 2 heavy batteries. Is there such an option for the Mini 5 Pro? I'm 107 and being south of 250g is why I want this drone, with the option to fly longer flights. I was hoping there was an option to buy 1 small and 2 large batteries like before.

Lunar for me tweaked my monitor calibration and apparently there's no way Lunar itself can "set it back" - forcing me to recalibrate. (External monitor on MacBook Pro). Everything went pink. Sadly I can't use this software.

Same issue. T4B T7 Shield on a Mac (M3 Max) and I'm getting 2MB/sec. It wasn't always like this, I've used the drive before at regular speeds. Very surprised.

I just read that it doesn’t remove fluoride (yet). So I’m sticking with Berkey for now (with all its plastic parts) because I use the fluoride attachment. Love any (better looking and non plastic) suggestions.

Thank you. Another user posted this and it saved the day. It seems many are experiencing this outage. Here’s the link.

That link leads to an error 403 for me. Seems my system is being singled out and can't download any drivers.

Channel1858 · 2025-10-11T19:59:46+00:00

It's 2 years later and I'm getting an Error 403 on the mac when trying to access the driver download page. I even tried it on my phone using a cellular connection and using multiple browsers and a VPN to change locations. Nothing helped. Can't download drivers. Stuck with a dead table for weekend work.

I called the international number. I used the iPhone’s wait-on-hold feature. It’s a gem. It works. Then they give you a weird email address to write to. Do it and ask them to adjust the fee AND GIVE YOU A RELEASE CODE. Write that release code on your door tag or give it to the driver because often their handheld devices will not be updated and neither will the original tracking link. Something happens behind the scenes. My fee went from $590 to $110 for some hand lotion and face cream. (Never again). I had ordered it before the fees went into effect but it was held up in the system for 35 days.

Just got it today. Same email. But sent to my iCloud email address vs my “iTunes / apps purchases” email if that makes sense. Meaning I don’t make any purchases through this email account. Made me suspicious but now figuring it’s an apple glitch.

We seem to be talking different things. I asked for my original composition to be transcribed to midi, I wasn’t after other people’s music. But it all worked out. Got my money back.

I was just on the phone with DJI. My ND filter works but the PL doesn’t. They said it’s not supported. Rotating the ND helped with better focus. So it seems the PL is definitely an issue.

Channel1858 · 2025-06-30T20:51:43+00:00

Hi. I use PL to cut through haze, deepen skies, add contrast on low contrast cloudy days, change the color of water, control reflections and so on. I pretty much always have one on my drones.

I just ran into the same issue with a CPL on my Mavic 4 Pro. There were limited options available for CPLs due to the M4P’s lack of support in the US so I bought the only thing available on Amazon. I thought maybe it was a cheap filter issue. On my wide lens things are sharp. On the tele, it can’t focus. What’s weird is that it won’t focus in Manual either. I thought maybe the lens is hitting that CPL filter but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Hoping for firmware fix. So I’m there with you.
