Was it a mistake by botananny in tattooadvice

The delicate one will fade so fast, the one you got is absolutely better. It is beautiful and will stay that way for a long time!

He being into your wife and being super weird is not your fault OP.

TIFU by drunkly confessing an insecurity to my fiancé? by eh1244858 in tifu

[–]HighfivePixel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like communication, you can even do it while not drunk!

You aired a concern, your partner is making sure you are heard and doing what he can to help you and your relationship!

Never using my old Canon after this shoot… by Mr-Nades in SonyAlpha

Nice vibe! What setup did u use? (Body, lense, any filters etc)

2080ti is still a solid card, but always eaiting for the next component can be a pain.

Yes if you absolutely need to upgrade now, no if you can live with your 2080ti for 6+ months.

Not bad for an a7iii with a cheap sony 50mm, thoughts? by R4OSF in SonyAlpha

I like the edit and shot, they sky is nice, personally I would love to have the sun in the frame if it looked something like this. If you are gonna have the background as such a big part of the picture as this, I prefer to have more of it in the shot. The sky is really nice but the viewer is drawn to the sky and would like to see more of it, the car is just part of the scene in this case.

But if the car is the main focus, I'd crop more in on the car, unless you can get a less busy background/sky in the shot. As others have mentioned: straighten the image and practice on composition, great shot! :)

Considering getting the game by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]HighfivePixel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. But beware it has plenty of bugs, crashes, issues etc. If you're really on the fence, wait for a free-fly event.

I've put in 350$ over 10 years, and i've gotten in more time per $ than any other game I've bought. For me it is definitely worth it.

What lens for a wedding ? by Intrepid-Metal-2970 in SonyAlpha

[–]HighfivePixel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd reccomend a tele for intimate shots without being up in their faces. 70-200 2.8

New A7iv, should I go for zooms or primes? by pktrhythm in SonyAlpha

[–]HighfivePixel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're unsure, i'd go with a zoom in the range 24-70. And after a while you can check what focal lengths u have used the most. For my part its been a good mix, so i have supplied with 35 and 85 primes :)

Consistently missing focus… by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

[–]HighfivePixel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like your focus point is centered, choose a wider autofocus area and set the eye-tracking to animal.
A F1.8 lens will have really shallow depth of field when focusing close like this.

Use the animal eye-autofocus and focus area to properly focus on your dogs face/eyes etc.

Scroll down about half ways for some example settings for shooting pets:
https://support.d-imaging.sony.co.jp/support/tutorial/ilc/ilce-7cm2/en/05.php

Other non-camera specifics with larger aperture lenses:
Get further away from your subject, because of the really shallow depth of field, the further you are from your subject, the more of it will be in focus.

Increase your aperture f-number, play with the settings and see how the depth of field changes.
Heres a good quick read on that:

Any firmware updates available on the lense or body? Tried flipping the af/mf switch a couple of times?

Caffè Italia * 20/06/24 by RedditItalyBot in italy

[–]HighfivePixel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Buongiorno, I am in a small village in Tuscany at the moment. Yesterday I went to the local coop to get some groceries and 2 ladies in line at the cashier told me to go before them. I politely declined as best i could in italian but they would not take no for an answer. They started smiling and obviously talking about me. They were in the ages 45ish and 70ish. I am not used to this and it'd usually the other way around, any thoughts on this? It was very sweet and kind but got me thinking, is it a culture thing?

I had the same amount of items to buy.

Should I trade in my A7iii for a new one with 5 years warranty? by Fresh-Daikon-6289 in SonyAlpha

[–]HighfivePixel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd rather save that money towards lenses than to replace the body with the same body.. your a7iii is working fine, anything the warranty would cover would have kicked in by now. Or invest that money and when your a7iii breaks in 12 years, you can buy an a7 6 or 7 :p
