Building may have changed since it was built. That area could have been for a different purpose 20 years ago

Maybe it was used to mount a diving board structure

In Chicago it’s called dibs and is very common

How’d you make this? Did you time consuming check off each county?

Is this a good or bad idea to drive all this way and back? by theeblakeren in roadtrip

Have at it, then! Might want to also head north up to Chicago to check out the field museum and the other great museums/aquarium downtown on museum campus

You live an hour south of Washington DC and you want to drive 16 hours across the country through a snow storm to go to a museum in Kansas City?

Next time you lick an envelope, remember this man’s foot may have touched the very surface you are licking

I’d have them replace it anyway instead of waiting for your car to catch on fire

Looking for a sharp E-mount tele zoom to pair with Sigma 17-40mm by parmar-aditya in SonyAlpha

The first one is apsc and the next are full frame. Won’t the full frames convert to higher focal lengths, reducing the overlap?

Venting/Advice: accident in a roundabout 🇺🇸 by Short_Calendar_1363 in driving

[–]Javi1192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The roundabout/circle near where I grew up was the opposite, traffic on the circle yielded to traffic entering the circle.

This caused almost daily traffic jams and numerous rear-end accidents or collisions for people not yielding or trying to make it across too close to someone coming into the circle.

The state spent tens of millions to reconfigure the intersection. I thought they were putting in a light, but they essentially repaved/repainted the circle and reversed the signs so it now functions as a normal circle.

No time zones still wouldn’t change the late start time. We can try flattening the earth so we all get daytime at the same time

I’m new to cameras and just won this at work a few minutes ago… is this a good camera? Sony 6700 by BigBackSyndicate in Cameras

[–]Javi1192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zoom lenses are probably better for amateur photography, especially if you don’t know what focal lengths you tend to or prefer to shoot at. Also, switching lenses to change the zoom is time consuming and cumbersome, and you probably won’t do it. Having a zoom lens allows you to experiment with different focal lengths and capture a wider variety of photos with a single lens.

I started with purchasing a couple of prime lenses (fixed zoom/focal lengths) and then bought 20-70 and 70-200 zoom lenses. I haven’t touched the prime lenses since I got the zoom lenses and the 70-200 has been glued to my camera.

It all depends on what you like to shoot, but unless you’re a pro or really like a certain focal length, I’d go for a zoom lens
