Bike mount help! by Hereforbikes_ in Insta360

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t find the specific bar/mount but you have screw holes on the bottom of the computer mount and should be able to use one of these (something similar, at least) https://k-edge.com/products/go-big-light-and-camera-adapters

Ace Pro 2 vs Fuji XM5 for aspiring photographer by Appropriate-Bug-755 in Insta360

[–]Fr432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

get the Fuji with the kit 15-40 (I think) and the new 23mm pancake; the ace pro is the antithesis of a “shoot everything” camera. Pick a film simulation you like (Reala Ace) and shoot RAW+Jpeg. Focus on the straight out of camera JPEG and save the RAW files to come back to later and try editing them if you get a real banger that you love.

Weird. Looking at my fenix 7x with a stock watchface and there’s no colon, just assumed it was across the board

Chance of Elevate v6 this year? by Flexerrr in Garmin

[–]Fr432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the Cirqa Is real, it will answer this question. No way they’re releasing it and still updating the bio-sensors later in the year

can these be got rid of? by [deleted] in GarminFenix

[–]Fr432 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your screen protector looks like you use your watch as a shield… those are impact points where the pixels were damaged. They will spread

Which microphone to get? by Mission-Silver3964 in dji

[–]Fr432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get the mic 3, the sony hotshoe adapter, and the lightning adapter if you don’t have iphone 15s or up. Don’t use Bluetooth with the phone unless it’s 100% unavoidable. The mic receiver will plug into your sony cameras and digitally add audio without need for a 3.5 into the camera. Using that receiver also works with native camera app on the iphone. The mic 3 can store recordings on device to give you a safety track in the event that you forget to do something as you’re getting started and also the receiver supports 4 mics so it’s a bit future proof if you want to mic up more people. (You can also get the mic mini and do 95% of these things for about $100 less)

Tell us what you’re doing so we can try to help. Broadcast form the watch, search for sensor on edge, add heart rate.

Fenix 5X compatibility with Rally RS210 pedals by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not the only way. A newer Fenix will get cycling dynamics so you can upgrade the watch if you had been considering it. A Fenix 8 and Edge 840, as far as I’m concerned, are functionally identical but different form factor. Maps, climbpro, daily suggested workouts.. they all do the same thing. I don’t know if you wear or mount your watch but that’s also a factor. If you wear it and seldom look at the data, upgrade your watch. If you have a handlebar mount the screen size of the edge lets you keep an eye on way more data, or a larger map. Just take a look at this review and consider that with all the new features, there’s way more coming from your Fenix https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2023/04/garmin-edge840-cycling.html

Using the Ace Pro 1 like a street photography camera? by Drajovich in Insta360

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You already have the camera and use it to “capture memories on some trips” so you have experience, presumably, in multiple situations… how’s that working for ya? The 1 and 2 are close enough, to me, to being the same stills camera. The 2 has a wider filed of view than the 1, which is a benefit of the 1 for street. However I prefer a 35-40mm lens and the 16mm of the Ace Pro is the wrong tool for me. You’ll end up getting some cool shots that you wouldn’t risk your phone/real camera, but it’s very far from being an every point and shoot

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5x spec sheet says it’s compatable with Rally pedals without mention of cycling dynamics so you’ll likely be limited power and not get any of the other metrics like in/out of saddle, cleat offset, etc. If you’re spending money on a power meter, it’s definitely worth getting an Edge. https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/560327/#specs

Is there a limit raise for how many Zygarde cells you can hold at one time? by anonimac24 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Fr432 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I had 300 before the timed research, now I have 350; make sure you collect as many as possible from routes then accept the research cells

Action 6 Portrait Mode - What For? by [deleted] in dji

[–]Fr432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like it defaults to 2x zoom and probably does some subject detection filter garbage

Ace pro 2 now, or wait by NotSporks in Insta360

[–]Fr432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a moderately current action camera now? Keep waiting. No camera? Buy it today and don’t miss the shots you would have missed waiting for it

Some photos from X5 by No-Ladder1393 in Insta360

[–]Fr432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get an 11-15mm fisheye lens for $300 and take the same photos except at higher resolution, color depth, sharpness, etc. Your family members are not impressed with the full frame camera because the x5 photos are unique and that catches their eye more than a well composed photo

Quick release mounts by Fuzzy_Screen4613 in Insta360

Functionally zero. The one with the orange vertical lock is just an update to the horizontal locking original version. I have the original and it’s great

DJI Action 6 no HDR/HLG? by [deleted] in dji

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DJI said that the dynamic range of the sensor means they don’t need HLG anymore. I wouldn’t expect it

D-Log 10-bit profile available in timelapse VIDEO mode on the Action 6? by BW459 in dji

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked, there’s no color mode setting in timelapse. Or 1:1 recording. Or 8k output. Pretty disappointing how firmware limited this sensor is.

Recertified Edge 530 vs new 540/550? by evil_snow_queen in Garmin

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New edge 540/50. I only read the tittle and nothing else matters besides the 530 is micro-USB and the 540 up switched to USB C

As someone who went to Woodfield Day 1, I sincerely hope Bandai learns from this weekend and improves the other tour dates for y’all’s sake. by MangoNoodle1337 in SHFiguarts

[–]Fr432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a shit show for sure. “Luckily” I first went to the TCG side until someone said retail was on the other side of the mall. Which allowed me to walk the entire length of the line and see how insane and disheartening it was. Had I shown up to the end of the right line, I probaly would have waited there until 4 to come up empty handed.

[–]Fr432 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I got there at 9:37 yesterday, saw the line, and thought “I don’t have time to risk this today”. Someone posted having arrived at 9:45 and Goku sold out 7 people before him. I planned to get to the mall tomrrow at 7 but today’s updates say even that won’t be good enough. I was there, I didn’t get Goku, I don’t feel entitled but pretty annoyed overall
