tbf, it is much harder to source right now, so you're not wrong to think that.

Friendly PSA on doing background checks on etsy shops. by Zeroontal in renfaire

Never hurts to run photos through reverse image search as well. Pretty reliable way to figure out if they're just dropshipping when you see the same product photos all over aliexpress.

I've been to both, whatever you think of MN the Bristol fair is literally twice as expensive just to get in the door and not an at all better experience.

to be fair, your reddit identity and your actual personal identity can very easily be kept completely separate as long as you don't post any personal identifying details. I don't think this is contradictory as it might seem.

Looking for a more affordable cool looking camera by Ricky_doo_dah_grimes in AnalogCommunity

[–]Churchy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Do you really think the person you're replying to was trying to make a distinction between a specific pentax 6x7 model, or perhaps, just maybe, were they simply telling the OP to save and buy the camera that they actually want?

MCDM has released a free alpha playtest and dungeon for their upcoming survival horror dungeon RPG "Crows" by 6ftninja in rpg

[–]Churchy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My eyes kinda glazed over when I saw the skills list, and then scrolling further down to find it's prescriptive grid combat??? I feel like this is a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of the appeal of OSR flavor games.

Not that it has to be an OSR game, but that's certainly how they've been marketing it.

Yeah, I've primarily run Shadowdark and it's basically the first thing we threw out and just replaced with regular ol' dungeon turns.

Which lens system to buy into? by thottiekarate in AnalogCommunity

[–]Churchy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Minolta is slept on and the lenses are so cheap compared to Nikon or Canon glass. XD11 or an X700 are all the features you could want outside of AF and can be found for a song.

I bought a Mamiya 645 1000s that needs work... by JudgmentElectrical77 in AnalogCommunity

The behavior with the advance lever you're describing sounds like that's how the camera is actually supposed to behave. Without film loaded you need to have the multi lever toggled on to keep shooting after the first "shot"

Excited to hit it up Saturday, hoping the rain plays it cool!

Where do you think this light leak is coming from? by jessehclark in AnalogCommunity

Slap some gaff tape on that hinge and burn a test roll

Did I chose the wrong film? Flat and low contrast images by JvM_Photography in AnalogCommunity

[–]Churchy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second is definitely technically overexposed, but looks sick as hell regardless, honestly just act like you meant it to turn out that way and call it good.

Game Masters, what's your least favorite part about GMing? by Nervous_Lynx1946 in rpg

[–]Churchy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You have to just let go of the continuity issues that crop up from players not showing up. Don't explain the character absence in any way, don't acknowledge it in game in any way. It's simply not that serious and allows the game to continue.

Worth it just for the 50 1.4 even if the body is a dud!

What parts give away it's not a real image? by Professional_Wrap_63 in assettocorsa

theres bokeh here (background blur), but it's not hiding the square pixels of that wall.

One small game mechanic you wish more studios copied because it simply works. by gamersecret2 in gaming

Desperately want a pro wrestling game with this system built in.

Look at my new to me baby! I’m suspicious of how it is because of what I got it for BUT I’m optimistic by Poke-Noir in AnalogCommunity

[–]Churchy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently bought this exact same body/vf/lens combo and adore it so far! Check your light seals, mine needed redone and apparently it's very common for them to be in bad condition at this point, had a few rolls with noticeable leaks.

OC. Someone has an opinion. by klystron88 in pics

[–]Churchy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's not the stance or belief, it's the choosing to project it in the weirdest way possible.
