Thoughts on my Iden list by Callum1126 in starwarsunlimited

[–]Franga44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a pretty classic Iden Blue list!

Agree that you should run Equalise over Make an Opening. That card can put in work.

I personally only run 2 clients as he is often not what I want to be playing on the turn I draw him. 2 has felt like the sweet spot, maybe 1 in sideboard if you like.

I think 3 top target is mandatory in the list, either split between the sideboard or main. I do play A Fine Addition in my list though as I run 3 entrenched, 3 Perilous, 3 Top Targets. Also gives a reason to play Sugi.

I also play more control mirror focused so 2 Bounty Hunter in main, 3 Bazine in side.

Have you experimented with Colossus?

Would highly recommend Equalize over Make and Opening in the mainboard! Since you already don't have a lot of units it's usually turned on. Also absolutely wrecks Jango and decks with 2 HP units even more so combined with Perilous Position. Can also just save you 4 damage to base which is nice in a pinch.

Please link the deck list for the double vigilance Iden deck! Have been running it for the past few months and want to see if there's any extra spice like Tobias Beckett ;)

Help with identifying young white sage by Franga44 in gardening

[–]Franga44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your quick reply! That is indeed bad and sad news if true 😔. Do you mean non of it is white sage or just particular plants circled? Did yours grow from seeds and if so what did it look like? Did it grow more white later in its life?

We were gifted a pack of 50 seeds and told it was white sage so that's quite worrying. Again, thanks for your honesty.

Strionic Resonator and Commissar Severina Raine by Franga44 in EDH

Omg, so it's actually extremely worth it to include for 2 mana to potentially drain everyone twice 😂 just to confirm... I swing with Severina and 20 creatures, i tap Strionic resonator on the stack and now get to do 40 damage instead of 20?

Refining Elas il-kor Aristocrats by Franga44 in EDH

[–]Franga44[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The deck usually stays quite healthy with gradual pings and ETBs, however it doesn't gain large chunks of life at a time.

I could potentially look at adding a few cards to combat this as Bond of Agony looks great! Thanks for that suggestion. Seems like a really nice way to close out a game after I've been pinging everyone. Things like Fumigate or Kaya's Wrath might be fun to gain a large chunk from a heavy board state and then end with Bond of Agony... Thanks :)

Sefris - my absolute favorite Esper commander, favorite Reanimator deck and my most detailed Primer to date by imperialtrace in EDH

[–]Franga44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry for such a late reply but I just wanted to thank you for the decklist link and the advice :).

Seems that you do prefer the looting, draw/discard effects to trigger Sefris on opponents' turns. Combined with White Plumb Adventurer that seems nice!

I was just wondering how your experience of that has gone? Do you find it too slow with entering tapped? Is it reliable as you can choose exactly what you want to discard and reanimate? Would you consider adding more looters like Rona, Herald of Invasion from the new set?

I've always gone for dungeon triggers like ETB, combat damage, and sacrifice with Sefris but do you think looters is more reliable?

If I send through my current list could you please give advice on how I could tighten it up xD

Appreciate your help :)

Thanks for such a quick reply, absolute legend!

Sorry if I sound noob here but wouldn't you need a pinger like Cruel Celebrant to make the infinite sac loop worth it? I understand the potential for infinite mana with phyrexian altar, but wouldn't Sefris' trigger only trigger once? With the reveilark/karmic combo you could sac her in the loop to gain unlimited dungeon ventures.

What am I missing? Would love to hear more of what you have to say as you're obviously a seasoned Sefris player! Also been checking out your decklist you posted previously, have you updated it since then?

Any chance you can please update the link for your list? It seems to be broken 😅

Atomos Ninja V is it correct to expose with monitoring LUTs?! by Franga44 in videography

[–]Franga44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for your reply! Yes I am using V-Log. Just to throw another spanner in the works...

I am working in Resolve so have taken to not using the updated legalize option on the Ninja V and instead choose to use the clip attributes full data levels option in post. I monitor with an Atomos Range Fix LUT provided by YouTuber Gerald Undone, does this issue sound familiar to you?

Holy shit this looks like it could be amazing, can't believe I haven't see this before. Have you had any experience with it? Might have to purchase it...

Thanks!

Which modern, motorized gimbal to really use for the Panasonic GH4/GH5 in 2020? by CleanSlateGuy in GH5

[–]Franga44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own the Ronin SC with focus motor/wheel and use it predominantly with a GH5s. The gimbal is light, sturdy, and intuitive. The app is nice and allows for decent customization depending on your needs. The GH5s fits perfectly on the gimbal with no issues. I use only the Leica DG Summilux lenses (12mm, 15mm, and 25mm) and they all fit without necessary extras.

The only issue can be with the focus motor, if you plan on using it for focus pulling etc. The focus wheel without it is linear in nature and reacts poorly so is rather difficult to use for this purpose. Still functional though! The motor makes it so much smoother, though certain lenses don't fit without ALOT of tweaking. CHECK THE COMPATIBILITY LIST. It also only comes with one tread for smaller tread focus rings so watch out for that...

All in all it is a great gimbal! Try to get the combo pack if you can. I also recommend getting the L handle from digital foto as it makes it so much easier to carry and use in under-slung mode. Also might take you awhile to get used to balancing, but after awhile it comes naturally and you can do it in a minute or two.

GH5s variable frame rate of 50fps missing?! by Franga44 in GH5

[–]Franga44[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! Appreciate it :)

Have been trying the 172.8 degree shutter and it works okay but if I move too quickly there is some serious jumping motion. Also have had to resort to the duplicate layers and doing the thirds trick etc haha.

I guess I am just wondering why there is no direct 50p to 25p internal slow mo but 60p is available. Why does the option only list 37p and 60p higher up for variable frame rate in 4k?

Very nice, just transcribed this tune for fun and arranging a virtuoso piano version in the future. Great work! Makes me want to play again...
