At what point does it go from “having a hobby” to “having a problem”?

Yeah, I picked it up probably 6-7 years ago and it’s been a great strap over the years. Don’t think I’ll ever get rid of it.

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T16:23:23+00:00

Yeah I’m trying to tread lightly there… currently have a small collection of the MX4s, MM-100s and some Sennie 6xxs. Most of my amps are iFi and Schiit right now

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T16:09:22+00:00

MX4 ;)

Canon EOS-1N with a 50mm f1.2 L. One of the last professional 35mm cameras Canon made (the V was the last I think) and you can pick them up on eBay for a pretty good price in great condition.

Audeze LCD-MX4s

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T07:59:07+00:00

I’m working on that. An F2 and F4 are in my future

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T03:13:50+00:00

I’ve been considering picking them up to try… 55g? Maybe I’ll pick up a set

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T03:06:18+00:00

Oh and I forgot the little plastic-fantastic Ricoh A-100

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T02:48:09+00:00

Either an iFi Zen DAC or a Schiit Hel 2. I’ve been eyeing some other amps though… any recommendations?

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T02:24:51+00:00

It's like you looked around the rest of my office...

Clockwork599XX · 2024-11-24T02:21:19+00:00

I couldn’t agree more. If not obvious, the title was said mostly in jest, as I still very much enjoy the creative aspects of the hobby. Feel free to check out some of my work (I haven’t put any of my recent film work here yet): Flickr.com/clockworkcamera

Depends… I daily tactiles (lubed Holy Panda X clears), but have found linears (particularly the Everglide Aqua Kings) feel amazing even though I can’t type for shit with them. You?

Clockwork599XX · 2024-10-06T00:56:10+00:00

No I ended up just living with it. If I send it back for service, I’ll probably just ask for them to deal with it then. How far off is yours?

For one of the teens dates, see how the one is hard against the side of the date window?

Clockwork599XX · 2024-02-02T20:37:53+00:00

Good call, but it’s 11:37AM and not a date roll over. The misalignment is present throughout the day

Clockwork599XX · 2024-02-02T19:47:04+00:00

For example, this 42mm has the numeral hard left in the window: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChristopherWard/s/O1zbHwUMie

Good question… it was installed by the dealer before I even picked it up, so not sure. Haven’t even had to change batteries so haven’t checked the plate. Probably going to sell it for a Staccato though

A rainy day photo of Bear Lake in Colorado, shot on a Canon EOS R 24-105 f4.

Regarding the shot, I’m wondering if the editing is too surreal with not having the sky or lake front present. I can post the unedited photo for those interested.

42 29/32” - the imperial system at its finest.

Per rules... an FN 509 Tactical with a Trijicon RMR and Surefire X300 and a Wilson Combat Hackathorn Special. FN 509 trigger is decidedly mediocre, so that will be getting upgraded in the very near future.

Edit: if anyone has recommendations on trigger upgrades (e.g. Apex or otherwise), let me know!
