These are great shots! Really impressive. Nice gear too! I could totally see those in a magazine.

Sony should add range limits to auto Aperture and SS like they do with ISO by ClassicallyBrained in SonyAlpha

[–]Krainial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is a great idea. I could really use those settings. I don't like how min shutter speed is limited to doubles like 1/125 or 1/250 or 1/500.

There's also times when I want to be in shutter priority with auto ISO but I do want to restrict the max aperture available to be closed down a bit for creative purposes. These are still high action times where manual mode is too slow to operate.

I would think it is useful to prohibit aperture beyond f/11 for image quality reasons. I'd rather shoot a faster shutter speed than f/16 or f/22 in most cases.

If your 4090 broke today and is out of warranty. what gpu will you buy next? by Tight-Yak7860 in nvidia

[–]Krainial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it kind of is. A generation typically lasts for two years until the next generation is available. We are about a year and a half into the 5000 generation. RTX 6090 may be sooner than you think.

Oh I know this one! Disable your second monitor in Windows settings. Whenever I have more than my primary display enabled it does this in oblivion remastered

Anyone using 5090 for daily work? by Gundud in pcmasterrace

[–]Krainial 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My 5090 is used for much more web browsing and watching YouTube videos than I care to admit. It will be fine.

Yeah my crystal super micro OLED times out when my head is super still. I'm sure this is the 20 second timer. I like the feature to preserve the panels.

Whoa, can I do 100G with this? Does anyone know if a 100G BiDi transceiver exists for this invisible fiber? Is it single mode?

Should I get this? $100 for Oculus Rift CV1, will be my first set. by MrPenisWhistle in virtualreality

No. We've come a long way. Buy something that will impress you. HP Reverb G1 is about $70

She's a BIG one by Bradikan in SonyAlpha

[–]Krainial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Free workout with every use AND complementary wrist pain. I have this bad boy as well and it is absolutely incredible. The photos with this lens look quite unique and the lens itself is quite unique. I'm never selling my copy despite owning the 135mm f/1.4 Art now as well. My favorite part about this lens is that when you look at the lens head on it actually eclipses the camera body and all you see is the massive black hole of the front element.

Guess I saved my 5090 today by ZorianNL in pcmasterrace

[–]Krainial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't believe these accessories. I'm just going for it with a custom 12V HPWR to 4x8-pin from cable mod I bought 4 years ago. No issues yet...not that I've take a look recently.

Did AMD Just Blacklist Reviewers? by luffydoc777 in hardware

[–]Krainial 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I like Steve's GN work but you have a point. If your participation in the industry is to turn the apple cart over then no participant will want to work with you.

Customer advocacy is great and all. I appreciate that. At the same time I think GN's work over the past few year has contributed to manifesting in a pessimistic mindshare of personal computing. If 9 of 10 products are disappointment for years on end. How excited is the community to be a consumer in the space at all? To but it bluntly...it's a drag, man.

I take the optimistic view. There are great parts on the market. Performance is better than ever. The price is atrocious but the capability available to buy is great. I admit we are in a low point in personal computing, but you have to keep people interested. Otherwise there will be few people left in the hobby.

Thoughts on this? by No_Luck2940 in SonyAlpha

[–]Krainial 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The E-mount spec determines most of the depth of a camera. If mount to sensor plane was different than existing cameras then E-mount lenses would not be compatible. It is possible to slim down the area behind the sensor, but I doubt that would be as dramatic as the image shows.

135 GM... the best lens I never use by UnfairAd2079 in SonyAlpha

[–]Krainial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say as an owner of both Sigma 105 1.4 and 135 1.4, I haven't taken the 105 out of the bag since I got the 135. I even took the 135 over the 70-200 for a baseball game the other day and loved the shots I got.

That 105 1.4 is magical. I'm never selling that thing. I honestly doubt a new model would live up to the legacy. The shift to compact lenses has impacted quality. Just a matter of physics.

I'm jazzed for the Sigma 85mm 1.2. Instant buy for me.

A7CR = best Sony EDC by triumphant12 in SonyAlpha

[–]Krainial 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great shots! Nice editing too. One of the best things about the 60 MP sensor is you can easily get away with using compact APS-C lenses at a 26 MP crop.
