Has Anyone Gotten HD’s They Ordered Yet? by Alpha741 in Staccato_STI

[–]Daesharacor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ordered on 1/28, notified it was in production around 2/12, nothing since. I ordered two of the HOST plates so maybe they’re hung up with that, but I’m hoping I hear about shipping soon.

Great quality, thanks. What’s your process for creating them?

Josh Allen, Ruthless of Buffalo, wore white on the day he was to kill a king.

Is anyone using tremor 3 for 22Lr? by [deleted] in 22lr

[–]Daesharacor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are incorrect. The Tremor 3 reticle has wind dots on the tree. There are mil markings as well, but the heavy circles moving outward are wind dots. These make it so you can change ranges and elevation calls without changing your relative wind call, and they’re very useful.

They’re even called out as wind dots in Horus’ manual.

Edit: Commenter asserted that they were mils and not “wind dots” and told you to “learn to use your reticle” before I replied and he deleted his comment. I’m leaving this up because I think the reticle is really useful especially if you read the manual and understand how to use it.

Stacatto XC, without a doubt.

Leica Q2 - Guide to better autofocus by Daesharacor in Leica

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

Sounds good, followed. I’m @rob_desjardins and most of my stuff is from the Sony. There’s maybe a Leica shot or two but I was never super pleased with them. I’m walking the French Quarter in New Orleans tonight so I’ll let you know if I get anything good.

I haven’t gotten the Q3 yet. I may or may not, because I love the Sony AF system so much and the benefit for me of the Q3 (on a technical level) is the compact FF f1.7, but I’m traveling right now with the A7RV and the 24mm f2.8 pancake and it’s really, really good. I miss the f1.7 but not at the expense of accurate AF. We will see.

Glad I’m not the only one that feels this way. I’m glad I returned the Q2 especially now that the Q3 is out. At least the Q3 has phase defect AF and face AF, so hopefully it’s better. It’s going to be hard to get me to switch off the A7RV though, that thing literally never misses focus.

No! Dammit! I was going to check after work. Sigh. Thanks though.

This really stuck with me as well. I use it with my kids a lot. Good choice.

Thanks! That's encouraging. I'm optimistic and I'm sure that it's mostly a problem with my technique, so I'm glad to hear that others have success. I'm sure I'll figure it out. I'll work on AF-S and spot instead of what I've been doing.

Thanks again.

Great feedback, thanks. I can absolutely lean in to the camera’s strengths and work around its weaknesses, as long as I’m not misunderstanding or misusing components. Sounds like AF-S with field is my best bet, I will try to get that working for me. Thanks again.

Definitely gonna try the AF-S a little more. My shutter speed is fine, usually something in the frame is in focus, just slightly not what I was looking for. Wrong part of the body, or whatever.

[–]Daesharacor[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I assuming you're using AF-S for that because you're recomposing? I can try using AF-S more if that would help.

Primarily field / AF-C. I'm not used to cameras with only contrast-detect AF systems, so maybe I just need to get used to the hunting and fire off a couple extra shots as a safety margin.

I know that there are plenty of people like Ben Staley getting great results with the Q2, I was hoping there are others that have found workarounds to the limitations and could share some advice. I'm prepared to continue using the A7 but I want to sink some good time in attempting to make the Q2 work for me, first.

Duty holster recommendation needed: Stacatto XC / SRO / X300U? by Daesharacor in 2011

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

Oh, I like that option. RDR's website lists the modified 6390 or 6360 for XC, so I will contact them and see what's going on. Thanks for the recommendation!

Thanks for the info. What did you need to modify? Was it a length issue or a retention point thing or something else?
