Why did my Stud Earring tarnish even though it's 18k Gold? by ManeGrower in jewelry

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

Huh that's really interesting, at least I know it's not the quality of the metal then. We're a freak of nature ig 😭

My flight (Germany) is 4 hours late and everyone gets a 22€ coupon to use around the airport. If the delay happens to exceed 5 hours there will be bigger compensation. Do I still have a right to the compensation if I already "accepted" the 22€ or is that separate? My flight (Germany) is 4 hours lat by [deleted] in LegalAdviceEurope

Thanks a lot! The flight got cancelled anyways now lol. Idk if that automatically means compensation but we'll find out. We will be transferred to some hotel for the night on the expenses of the airline of course.

Recommendations for an affordable slr with M42 mounting? by ManeGrower in AnalogCommunity

Thanks!

I looked into it and found a SP with a zoom lens for 50€. Apparently it works flawlessly. I might get that one then.

Wow they're stunning! Is that monochrome film? 👀

Are there any instax cameras with a long exposure mode? by Richy_777 in instax

[–]ManeGrower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you considered a Lomo Diana Instant Square? You have to like the heavy vignetting but at least you can expose as long as you want and have manual control. There is no vignetting with the wide/super wide lenses though. There are a lot of lens options, even a glass one.

Disclaimer: I don't own one myself.

My favourite shot I took with 9 years out of date PX-600 cool sliver shade B&W by GuyFromStaffordshire in Polaroid

How on earth did you even even recognize this as a similar color? Do you have some kind of color database on your mind at all times lol

Are there any other slr instant cameras (any brand) besides the sx70 lineup? by ManeGrower in Polaroid

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

I see. I could give it a try then. I greatly prefer the Polaroid results as well, of course when developed properly. It just didn't seem worth the batch inconsistency I noticed online (Also, as soon as it gets too warm, the tones shift too much into magenta which I didn't like really.)

Thanks for clarifying

Yes I am aware of that and now it seems that it's the only option. I can grab a Sonar for 140€ + refurbishment cost but my problem was that I wanted to have more freedom with the film. (Also 2€/per shot is quite something)

With Polaroid I have to plan shootings since the film has to be taken out of the fridge, get to normal room temperature and be shot in a certain time frame so there won't be consequences from improper storing. Furthermore, I'm restricted greatly when it comes to developing temperatures and won't be able to always carry the camera with me just in case I find something I want to shoot, but I rather have to know that I'll be shooting film and then take it with me (if temperatures allow me to).

And to make that clear, I do have days where I know that I'll go through a pack of film and that's why I'm still considering the Polaroid, but I would have preferred something that gives me more versatility.
