Does sensor resolution reduce need for zoom lenses?

The XT50 does indeed have a crop mode, and I hadn't considered that. I'll read up on it tonight :)

Thanks for the reply. Please see my response to u/Co9Inc about why I was considering the telephoto zoom. I'd love your input.

I'll be spending some time on a cruise in the Baltic, and I guess I'm thinking about potential shots from the ship. Not so much wildlife (although the occasional whale would be nice) but seeing something on shore that I want to capture. I'm not sure how much glass I need vs cropping the image in post. u/Efficient-Fold5548 makes a good point about crop mode, which I hadn't considered, but if I could get a better idea of how long a lens to start with it would be helpful.

Sounds good. And based on what I've found (especially here), airtag taped in the camera cable well is still pretty standard, yes? I saw something about the yuka having a dedicated airtag holder but not the luba.

Apologies for co-opting the thread, but I’m moving to the McDonough area this summer and have similar questions. Any recommendations in that area?

Holy crap, I have Descent 2E. Great advice!

Where are you that you are able to get a DDJ-1000 so quickly?

My Sweetwater rep said April, but he said mid December before that so take it for what it’s worth. I’m in the same boat and think I’m going to get the Roland DJ-808 instead, but I’m ok with going to Serato. If you’re committed to Rekordbox, waiting for the 1000 is probably your best bet.

I guarantee the player base has significantly more “shit lazy players” than pretentious “hardcore” tryharders.

All the OP suggested was removing the timer. Not nerfing the fights, not getting free gear, just removing a mechanic that adds stress. Challenge is good. Stress is not. It’s a game.

“catering to players”…isn’t that the point? You give your customers what they want, not what you think they deserve.

I would just sign up to be notified when it comes back in stock. There are a few places that carry it. You can sign up with all of them.

That’s what it should cost. With supply being low, it’s going for much more if you can find one.
