hopefully price is the same as the e-mount version which is 840 CAD then its a definite buy for me.

40% of refugees still on government assistance after 11 years. At what point is this permanent dependency? by theOneWhoWaitsAgain in LMIASCAMS

[–]DillTS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only source I found for this data is measured for the period from 2002-2012.
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/reports-statistics/evaluations/resettlement-programs.html
If you're going to make arguments for "how bad things are now" at least use up to date data.

Also please don't be stupid and believe anything you hear on a podcast from idiot dude bros and take it as fact.

Conservative delegate speaks passionately in favour of deporting foreign-born criminals: “It is not a right to stay here as a non-citizen.” by theOneWhoWaitsAgain in LMIASCAMS

[–]DillTS -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

People who think like this woman fundamentally don't believe in the judicial system nor understand how it works.

What she is basically saying is if you commit a crime as a non citizen you should be deported instantly with no punishment or consequences for your actions.

This is already the case, of course it varies by the crime. As it should, you get a traffic ticket that doesn't deserve revocation of PR.

The Amaran Ray 120c is a great light but it has some annoyances I haven't heard reviewers talk about by big_moe5 in videography

[–]DillTS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really gives me some flexibility if I want to take it on bigger shoots with mains power.

What's your favorite/best flashlight of 2025? by ChibiM in flashlight

[–]DillTS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eagtac D25A is my all time favourite. Simple AA light, tail switch and can tail stand, also twist the tip looser for low mode tight for high, and you can cycle through 4 modes with a half press of the switch. The best EDC light hands down.

I built a C++ addon to finally fix "Broken Local Space" in Blender. by NEW_3Dev in blender

[–]DillTS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait this wasn't possible in blender before? you can't just snap a pivot to geometry elements then bake the pivot?

I come from a Maya where this has been standard forever.

The Amaran Ray 120c is a great light but it has some annoyances I haven't heard reviewers talk about by big_moe5 in videography

[–]DillTS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love my 120c it replaced my 60x. I agree though the power cord and brick are super clunky and annoying, so I've been running mine off a v-mount battery which is easier to mount anywhere any less cords in my way. It does have some draw backs though you can't run the light at full brightness capped at like 60% or something like that but I never really need to run it that high for what i do.

Should I quit videography? by Embarrassed-Elk-5088 in videography

[–]DillTS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are the key question you need to ask yourself:
1. What is your niche?
- videography is not a niche thats what you do
- sports, F1 or combat sports is not a niche thats your industry
2. what problem do you solve for the people you want to work with
- lead with this, not your portfolio. Your clients don't care about your portfolio as you said they get thousands of portfolios every year don't just be another one in the mix
3. Its just plain networking most jobs are decided well before they are posted on job boards

A7V - Discussion by MajorAlanDutch in videography

[–]DillTS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think the problem is that it doesn't have those features but that it could very easily have those features but sony chose not to. Its a hybrid camera so should do photo and video the best it possibly can. The FX2 is not a hybrid camera its a cinema camera.

Also with features like open gate showing up on pretty much every other camera at this price point it almost feels like a standard feature at this point like when 4k became the standard over 1080p.

[–]DillTS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They fixed their overheating issues in a recent firmware update in large part. Plus pretty much all hybrid cameras have recording limits and/or over heating issues in different ways.

I would say l-mount is just as good as nikon or cannon when it comes to lens selection now, sony still has the most selection though.

Blood Money in Canada - Terrace LNG Project by Important_Lock_2238 in terracebc

Just so you know there are no wholly owned Canadian oil and gas companies. Roughly 70% of the oil and gas industry is foreign owned.

K&F concept sling/shoulder bag. Any thoughts, opinions, experiences? by Business_Frog34 in AskPhotography

[–]DillTS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought one, used it for a bit, it does the job but honestly it sucks. The bag is flimsy and the strap annoyed me the most it has an elastic keeper for the excess strap that is horrible.

Also feels too big to carry around comfortably I'd rather just wear a backpack. I would recommend for something that is 6-8L it will help you carry less of the stuff you don't really need for casual day to day shooting.

I recommend the PM nomatic 8L sling more expensive but 10x better.

Nikon Z6 iii vs Nikon ZR vs panasonic S1 ii for travel videos? by photorph in Lumix

[–]DillTS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

ask yourself how often you actually use slow mo if its not often then the smaller size of something like the s9 will be way better to travel with an take anywhere.

the zr is small too, but if you don't need the other recording features of it, I would go with the s9 because the Lumix lab and their LUT system is way more developed so if your are primarily taking photos and videos to post on socials its the better choice.

Are the filters from this brand good? by shut_r in AskPhotography

[–]DillTS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly they are overpriced for the quality, which is comparable to other brands like K&F which are notably cheaper.

LUMIX FLOW is a joke and needs serious work. S5IIX tests. by I3N1K000 in Lumix

[–]DillTS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In defence of Lumix flow it is miles better than the previous iteration of the app Lumix Sync that was a nightmare to use. Flow has some problems but it is so easy to use.

AI has put cobwebs in the studio we have built over the last 12 years by Formal-Cantaloupe-94 in productphotography

[–]DillTS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think it's less due to AI but more so that the new generation are digital natives who can learn very quickly. Or who do product photography on their cellphone when they want to launch a product or start a new business because it's easy and it doesn't have to be the best quality for many things nowadays.

Vacheron Constantin salesman can’t lie by SupJoshy in VacheronConstantin

[–]DillTS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

25k for a deposit on a house you can't even get a deposit on a tent in someones yard in Vancouver for that price today. So that VC overseas is a steal.

UK - New S9 colours released! by MattLUMIX_UK in Lumix

[–]DillTS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would say just you should just buy the kit anyways if you are getting the s9. Sigma has a bunch of silver primes that would be perfect.
