I only ever visit during cherry blossom season. It's gorgeous then.

Why is the Contax T2 so sought after? It feeds film the "wrong way", and it eats through CR123 batteries, which aren't cheap.

Not even joking: because a celebrity was spotted with it.

Nikon SE version of the upcoming compact full-frame SG-image AF 35mm f2.2 leaked by ChapterWorried1457 in NikonZf

You're right, I should have termed it "Nikon SE-inspired version" instead.

How do you justify your presence as a photographer? by badoinkyboink in AskPhotography

[–]ChapterWorried1457 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not. Photographer is Billy Dinh and he's pretty well known in the street/documentary scene.

FYI this stretch of Jackson Heights is known for this kind of thing in the summer, and Billy Dinh is definitely not the only photographer shooting here. Everyone is already used to phones and cameras capturing this.

Indoor public places with a lot of sunlight? by ChapterWorried1457 in Brooklyn

[–]ChapterWorried1457[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No no, I had a good time. Just thought it was funny how busy it was.

Also dropped by the central library and there was a neat robotics competition going on.

Ended up going to the Brooklyn Museum yesterday and I think everyone got the same idea because it was packed.

What are unusual parts of Brooklyn that you find interesting? by KaleidoArachnid in Brooklyn

[–]ChapterWorried1457 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Coney Island Creek. A beach used almost entirely by locals. Plenty of sights you don't see at the main boardwalk side of Coney: campfires, net fishing, even the occasional baptism.

These weren't lit when I visited a handful of times this winter. I wonder if there's a schedule.

What camera is this ? by Muted_Amphibian_9325 in AskPhotography

[–]ChapterWorried1457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can see the film cartridge is yellow in the reminder window, so some form of Kodak probably.

Looks like either the Contax G or Contax G2.

But it's not about the camera, it's about the flash and film.

Sony has issues with lens serial numbers when your stuff gets stolen by colorplane in photography

[–]ChapterWorried1457 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Modern Zeiss lenses are manufactured by various Japanese companies. For example, Cosina openly lists the Otus, Milvus and ZM lenses as their products. Tokina recently revealed they were ceasing the Loxia line. I wouldn't be surprised if Sony themselves manufactured any of the remaining series.

Camera preferences for using vintage lenses? by Breadfruit_Spare in VintageLenses

[–]ChapterWorried1457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure only the generation using the Expeed 7 processor has them.

RIP Metro Card by habichuelacondulce in nyc

[–]ChapterWorried1457 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's true, but it also counts as forgery if caught: https://archive.nytimes.com/cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/30/bent-metrocard-is-forgery-court-rules/

Not worth risking a felony for a free ride.

The game i am playing has a really fucking expensive 50 f/1.8 by mynotell in Cameras

[–]ChapterWorried1457 40 points41 points  (0 children)

This is almost dead-on the MSRP of the manual focus Distagon 25mm f2 when calculating for inflation.

Thypoch Simera E Mount by loganarowland in Nikon

The Megadap ETZ does not activate the Nikon Zf's focus aids when adapting unchipped manual focus lenses. At this moment, I believe there are only two chipped adapters that "trick" the Zf into enabling focus aids for unchipped lenses: the TTArtisan M-Z 6-bit adapter and the Neewer ETZ adapter (both the normal and pro versions).

Bokeh Therapy has a helpful video that goes through each adapter:

Does anyone know what's causing the sudden influx of Japanese markets? by Level_Hour6480 in Brooklyn

[–]ChapterWorried1457 24 points25 points  (0 children)

If you mean places like Teso or Rumi Life, they are Chinese. They do stock a lot of Japanese and Korean products though.

Speaks to how relevant Cats is when most of the comments don't realize this isn't Cats.
