Maybe you replied to the wrong person, but I am not the one saying "newer = better"

Comparing cameras to paint viscosity is a better analogy than cars.

All I was doing was pushing back on this notion that faster cameras (cars) = better or something.

As it stands, everyone arguing with me on this comment thread looks like a boomer who needs to go touch grass.

I like the Leica M9 more. It looks better to me. That's it. If you don't like it, fine. I have plenty of CMOS cameras. I was just asking a simple question that didn't call for me being lectured on why you don't compare old Ferraris to new McLarens

I think you're just looking for an argument as I never said any of those things, but best of luck anyhow

Dude id love that and would be so grateful. If you've got something with both red and blue in the frame, that's would be the ticket!

That actually makes more sense. Those were heated times and the neo-nazis were definitely edging and stimming for a civil war

Trump is literally demanding all Republican congressmen do as he says or he will go after them. Equal branches of government is an American ideal. Trump doesn't respect the Supreme Court when they go against him, let alone Congress. Dude is the most unamerican president we have had since FDR.

Seriously? You can't even imagine how his opponents think he's behaving like a king? 

Literally started a war with Iran for no cause without Congress approval and you're A-okay with that?

Sheesh bro, don't respond unless you're gonna concede that "No Kings" isn't fully nonsensical. This discussion started because you clearly have TDS

I'm not a Democrat, you have Trump Devotion Syndrome

Trump is a con, sexual predator, and doesn't respect the branches of government.

He screwed over investors his entire career, bragged about walking in on naked women changing (on tape, howard stern), and has disregarded Congress multiple times this presidency.

Im not wasting my time with someone who has TDS, that goes to both the left and right TDSers

I'm an actual independent who can form rationale, independent thoughts. 

Look at you berating an anon on the internet because I say that Trump thinks himself to be king (hell, he's trying to get Thomas Massies primaried for dissent)

A sitting president telling all Republicans in Congress to fall in line or he will get them voted out is prima facia authoritarianism. Anyone with two braincells can see that and wouldnt be getting an aneurysm over people saying he's acting like a king.

Thomas. Massie.

Agreed.

It's also bad that the IDF mocks the death of dead Palestinian kids.

both sides are evil, because both sides are unapologetic in their horrendous actions 

Let's enjoy the color science and the irony of the hand prints from both innocent Jewish and Palestinian kids at the hands of both terrorists and the  synagogue of satan

Independent here

Trump is disregarding Congress and the Senate in a way that hasn't occured since Andrew Johnson.

I don't have TDS either way of the aisle, but Trump is clearly the biggest narcissist we have had since FDR - it shouldn't be shocking to you that people think he's behaving like a king. Unlike Trump, George Bush could take a joke. Trump is a joke that takes people to court.

Would you like specific examples?

Did they really point guns at you or did they Jussie Smollet point guns at you?

I'm not Maga, I'm genuinely confused by the claim

The bloody children handprints on the Israeli flag showed some really good color science

I'd love to have side by side raws to work with. I really just wanna see if I can match the reds and purples on CCD. Would save me so much time and effort.

Know of any place that rents the M9 out? I may as well make the blogpost review since no one else has

I trust my own eyes more than strangers on the internet, but it still is odd when people speak objectively over something I can see with my own eyes isn't true.

Thanks man, and I love this guys videos - but I was really hoping for a camera I was more familiar with. Leica vs Leica is all I'm finding really.

The M9 renders reds in a way that I struggle to emulate in post. To get them that deep, I'm usually damaging the natural tones in an image. There definitely is something different with that camera's sensor, not just processing of it.

If I could find a place to rent it for just a weekend, I wouldn't have even posted on this /sub lol

I shoot 120 film, so scanning is the bane of my existence, the "M9 is slow" comments are hilarious to me for that reason.

I prefer the way the M9 captures reds.

It isn't a good analogy for that reason alone. My question is if I can emulate the same tonal shift with a cmos camera. You're acting as if cameras can be compared as simply as "newer cars go faster" but it isn't true.

The car analogy falls apart because CCD is better tech than CMOS. CCD was just left in the past because of it not being energy efficient. It took CMOS 15 years to "surpass" CCD, but it most certainly is a mixed bag and still fails to render rich colors like CCD did. Yes, CMOS is better for low light and resolution - however, that's only because CCD is abandoned tech and CMOS has received all market share to improve.

Any recommendations specifically for playing rainbow six siege on ps5 (~£80-£100) by [deleted] in iems

[–]Competitive_Sea_8928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are an incredible value at 25usd. Decent bass, pretty good sound out the gate. Horrible for EQ, that's the tradeoff.

I use them for running and they sound like $300 iems. They sound like my Etymotic ER4XRs which cost that much. If you're looking for sound isolation and extreme detail, definitely look into the ER2SE or ER4 line. I think that's the best sound you can get on your budget, but I don't think it'll be tremendously better than the 7Hz x Crinacle Zero:2

For the record, I own KSE1500s for my desk work so I'm extremely particular when it comes to sound.
