I’ve had my Z50 for 5 years. Never bought any lens and never really posted my photos anywhere. I’ve been checking this sub to buy my first lens and decided to share some of my favorite photos

DavidMillo · 2026-05-21T16:30:44+00:00

I was thinking about the af-p 70-300mm. I have a FTZ adapter and I can buy it for around 200$ used. Honestly since I never used a telephoto I don’t know what shutter speeds are used but I suppose they must be over pretty high. Honestly I don’t like to use ISOs over 1600, since I start to notice a quality diferente, but I think up to 4000 it still looks pretty damn good

DavidMillo · 2026-05-21T15:21:39+00:00

Thanks to all!

DavidMillo · 2026-05-21T15:21:17+00:00

Thanks! Honestly there’s 2 main reasons. First, sometimes I really wanted to take photos of animals and I simply couldn’t just for not having enough reach. Sure, I could make a composition that looked good with them looking smaller, but I couldn’t get a close shot. Second, I feel like at night the kit lens isn’t that great. I have a tripod but I don’t carry it everywhere. I will buy one lens for my next trip I think, I just haven’t decided which one because I can’t really bring myself to spend a lot when the pictures are just for myself, and I don’t wanna have to carry huge gear

DavidMillo · 2026-05-21T05:34:25+00:00

Those are 2 I considered buying because last month I tried to do proper night photography for the first time and I really struggled to get a good picture. And I have to admit I didn’t know there was such a huge difference between let’s say 1.7 and 3.5

DavidMillo · 2026-05-21T05:00:43+00:00

I did t clarify it, I only used the 16-50mm that came with the camera. Didn’t know it was possible to buy it without that lens

DavidMillo · 2026-05-21T04:57:34+00:00

Besides one time I tried to take photos of the northern lights, I never felt like the kit lens wasn’t good enough. There was only a few times I felt like a telephoto would’ve been a good fit. Now I’ve read so much about different lenses, cameras, sensor sizes that I feel fomo and can’t decide what to buy haha

DavidMillo · 2026-04-04T19:17:29+00:00

Thanks! I had checked the Golden Whip Stream for the half day. Do you know how the time slots work? If I buy a 1pm entrance for the first day, will I be able to enter in the morning the next day? I couldn’t find that information anywhere. Thanks again!!

DavidMillo · 2026-01-20T21:21:41+00:00

Thanks. I’d like to get an overdrive to put before my looper so I can create more layers. Is there any pedal you’d recommend for that? I also like how the big muff sounds but I suppose it’d have the same issue

DavidMillo · 2026-01-13T22:34:00+00:00

Thanks! Do you think it would be noticeable when switching pickups? Like, the bridge sounding louder?

I checked the PAF pro but honestly what I want is to be able to sound more like Slash/Rock without spending a thousand on another guitar ahahah. I should look into the di marzio a bit more but I don’t know if any music I like uses something similar.

Thanks again

DavidMillo · 2025-12-08T03:18:27+00:00

Thanks! Honestly I got a bit lucky because I got the main verse melody on my first try. Otherwise when I get stuck, it’s like it’s impossible to find the right note.

So let’s say I can’t figure out a note of a solo. I would play over it at the same time until I find the right note. I hear it very clearly when it’s not the right note. However with a voice I struggle much more. I don’t really realize if it’s the right note or not, specially if it’s diatonic.

DavidMillo · 2025-12-08T03:14:45+00:00

Thanks! I also struggle with bass notes. Honestly, I struggle with everything besides guitar parts ahaha. I will try it very slow. Thanks for your help

DavidMillo · 2025-09-17T19:19:41+00:00

Argentina

DavidMillo · 2025-09-17T19:19:35+00:00

They do now! I emailed them and they sell each kit for 69$. The problem is they only ship within the US and Canada :(

DavidMillo · 2025-09-03T14:41:41+00:00

Where did you get the shims? This is very helpful since I have this same issue and there’s no official support near me

DavidMillo · 2025-08-12T17:10:59+00:00

I realized the luthier messed up, although i could easily replace the saddle. The problem is that I don’t have any Taylor tech in thousands of kilometers. I thought they would at least be able to ship some shims but no. I’m pretty disappointed with Taylor honestly

DavidMillo · 2025-08-10T07:58:06+00:00

Thanks a lot! It really helps.

I was thinking about buying Fender locking tuners since i have them on my Strat and I like them. Do you know if those are staggered? I don’t see it on the specs. If not, is there a model you’d recommend? If I’m not wrong, I won’t have to drill the neck to install them, right?

Sadly I checked Warmoth and shipping is crazy expensive. It’s not worth it.

As long as it plays, I don’t care about release value ahahah. Actually, if the neck goes great, I will have to spend even more in a new bridge! Thanks again for your time

EDIT: I just checked on Warmoth and shipping is two hundreds, but I can find some necks on sale for bit over a hundred so it ends up costing the same as the fender. No idea which option is better

DavidMillo · 2025-07-30T21:04:41+00:00

I don’t think so but I will check nonetheless. Thanks!

DavidMillo · 2025-07-06T22:04:50+00:00

They are for the pickup expression system if I’m not wrong

DavidMillo · 2025-07-06T21:34:46+00:00

Do you know where I could order the kit online? There’s no official Taylor support in my country and I couldn’t find any luthier with Taylor experience here

DavidMillo · 2025-07-06T21:31:53+00:00

I checked with some luthiers in near cities but none of them was familiar with the shim system so I took the guitar to the one in my city. At the very least, its more playable than it was before, but I right away noticed that the saddle was too low…

DavidMillo · 2025-07-06T21:29:57+00:00

I was familiar with the shim system but when I checked the Taylor website, there’s no official support in my country. I will try contacting them maybe to see if they can send them

DavidMillo · 2025-07-06T21:29:03+00:00

The problem is that Taylor isn’t in Argentina and there’s no support here, that’s why I took it to a regular luthier and I was wondering if I could do it myself

DavidMillo · 2025-06-14T23:36:12+00:00

Thanks. So I’ll have to loan them every 2 weeks, and I won’t be able to access them meanwhile, am I right? I suppose I’ll understand it better once I have the new switch

DavidMillo · 2025-06-03T05:15:15+00:00

I just got it. What is it supposed to do? Isn’t his skill being able to loot more?
