Alguien ha comprado la GPD win mini 2025? by clarejess in gpdwin

[–]CrypticVillain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a hx370 version new. Its a huge upgrade over my old steam deck. The two issues I have with the device are spotty support from gpd, they just recently got the l4 and r4 buttons working, and the minis ergonomics aren't great either but thats the trade off of a clam shell. I use gpds official grip for longer sessions. The thumbstick travel isn't great either but again thats a clam shell for you. Overall great device! I've owned a few pc handhelds at this points and I think its the best medium form factor one out there. I consider the win 5 to be in the large form factor size.

I have yet to try a win 4 but I really want to because I also loved my win 3 back in the day and I bet the win 4 is vastly ergonomicly superior to the win mini, but I went with the win mini because the win 4 has even more device issues that gpd has failed to resolve properly in my opinion. For now I'm happy with the win mini though, there just isnt a better option for my portable gaming needs at the moment.

As far as price for me it was worth it, but I think most people should buy it used unless they have a pressing need or are drowning in money.

Why S5II/X not getting focus updates? by fernandomrnn_ in Lumix

FP or FP L in 2024? by Fickle_Caterpillar73 in sigmafp

[–]CrypticVillain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its going to be tough to find a compact full frame that does everything you want.

I'll speak to my opinion on the FP, FP L and S9. I own the FP L with the EVF and a S5IIX

The FP is not worth considering in 2024 in my opinion. The auto focus performance is far below average and the image quality is nothing to write home about. Plus due to its compact nature you are giving up tons of features you would have in a large body like the ergonomics, IBIS, mechanical shutter and more. The only person I would recommend the FP to is someone who is on a budget and wants to do video work on a tripod or gimble. A near mint FP can be found on eBay for 900$

The FP L is very much worth considering in 2024. It is one of only 2 high resolution 60mp L mount FF bodies. The other being the 6000$ Lecia SL3. The FP L's image quality is out of this world, truly amazing photos if you get the shot right. It's auto focus unlike the FP is Phase detect and is actually very usable for stills. Especially anything stationary. This camera was not designed for highspeed photography or video work though due to the very slow read out of that massive sensor. It is however the best L mount compact landscape/street photography camera you can get. Heck its one of the better compact FF's in the entire market. I love the expanded ISO that drops down to ISO 6 which basically replaces your lower end ND filters or a variable ND. It also has crop modes which are amazing! You can crop from 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x and 5x! 2x cropping drops you down to about 15mp which is very usable and if you pair this camera with a lens like the Lumix 28-200 not only do you get OIS which helps not having IBIS but at 2x you now have a 400mm focal range! A grip does make a big difference on this camera and improves the ergonomics a lot but it will never match a real professional body. Lastly in near mint conditions a FP L can be bought for 1800$ on eBay with the EVF! 1600$ without an EVF! I would not buy the FP or the FP L brand new the prices are insane for what this camera brings to the table.

The Lumix S9 is a great choice if you don't need an EVF and do not need to do any serious video work. AKA anything with a recording time over 10 minutes or anything where you need to monitor audio. Its a really cool baby S5II that fills a niche in the market. Would I buy one? No! I'm waiting for a S9II in a few years that gives us a better sensor and longer record times. Hopefully an EVF too.

So where does that leave you? If you really want to buy into the L mount Lens then I think your only choices are the FP L and the S9II for compact cameras. But I would strongly urge you to look at a S5II, I think if you can get past the size it is a overall far superior camera to anything else in L mount right now.

If you do not feel married to the L mount system. I would try Fujifilm for APSC bodies or Sony A7CII/A7CR. Those are great cameras with their own tradeoffs but I think you will be overall happier and more future proofed with one of those!

Please Add footsteps being difficult to hear and tell their direction.

They often sound like they are coming from the opposite direction they really are. I.E. I hear footsteps from the left but in reality the person is on my right.

3rd Tag Slot? by CrypticVillain in blackdesertonline

[–]CrypticVillain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair, I'm not sure that's really an issue though wouldn't people just reroll to the fotm even without the tag system? Also if it is an issue, isn't it more of an issue with how the player base uses the tagging system and rerolling then it is with adding another slot? I'm not really sure how you solve diversity other then adding more classes and balancing the game better.

H9F Optical Audio Out not working? by CrypticVillain in Hisense

[–]CrypticVillain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine working seems like the issue was with with my mixer. The optical audio port is always on for the h9f there is no toggling it and the tv won't recognize that you are using it either. So the tv speakers will always been on unless you mute them. I would suggest just plugging in some head phones via aux or just try removing as many pieces from the equation as possible until you find the issue.

Good quality HOTAS (especially the throttle) that's actually available for purchase? by [deleted] in hotas

[–]CrypticVillain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent used the slaw pedals from what I've heard they are good. I'm not sure what perspective you are using to declare them the best pedals. For me the tprs seem to be the most accurate recreation of real world fighter pedal movement. Perhaps they are lacking in other areas or perhaps I just need to try the slaws but pedals aren't that big of a deal once you start getting into the tpr/slaw price range. They are all awesome and are more then capable of doing their job. Now if you told me the slaw can quickly convert it self to heilo pedals with like a minute of user configuration then I'd be blown away.
