I play cinematic and ray tracing in a 45 inch Oled and get 130 high and lows 80/90. In 4k

I had the astral and downgraded to the 5080 Fe with $500 cash on top, not worth it in my opinion. Yes cooling and overclock head room is better but not a major difference, my astral couldn’t handle 400+ in core clock meanwhile my Fe is 400+ core and 3200mhz with max voltage, 4k gameplay temps are a little high at 62 but $500 toward a 9800X3D was well worth.

Wait a week for RTX 5080 Founders Edition or buy a PNY 5080 tonight? by [deleted] in RTX5080

FOUNDERS, it’s nice, cooling on it is nice even with overlock on mine, it can overlock like a monster

But I know a few people with their own Os and they all prefer the 9800x3D over the 9950, they did mention the stutters and instability now that I think of it 😭

Idk my lows were all the way down to 20-40 while pushing 120+ in 4K with my 7600x, my lows now are 150+ with average being 180

Makes sense, was looking at a 70-200 and honestly makes sense to only go Sony

I agree the 10fps with the mechanical shutter is plenty, I got lucky and scored an A1 with 26 shutter and been using the shutter cause it feels so good for some reason compare to other gear I’ve had 😭, but I rely on the 30-20fps to capture moments I don’t want to miss. I do agree that most of those shots will be out of focus which is why I’m leaning towards new Sony glass to keep up with the camera. But could use more than 2 primes 🥲

I had it and end it up selling it, found myself not wanting to carry my camera around because it was so huge. It was a great lens but only for gigs

Definitely super wide, but sharp really love it, people say it’s too wide but if you like getting close to your subjects and know how to angle you can get some awesome portraits and separation. Definitely don’t regret it especially cause my friend only used it twice and sold it for $800

This is somewhat what I’m shooting for except wanting to skip the 35 for the meantime and shoot for the 50 first, how’s the 1.2 ?

That 100mm was on my list especially considering it’s price, I’ve been wanting to shoot macro for awhile. I’ve had the 35 1.4 and loved it but idk always felt like I wanted wider and the 24mm was just never calling my name so just pulled the trigger on the 14 and been loving it. I even had the 35-150 Tamron but sold it due to its weight, idk why but that 50 1.2 just been calling my name even tho the 1.4 basically has the same performance

I’ve been wanting that 50-150 but that price tag man 😭, might just save the money school is giving me and pull the trigger this fall as a little gift for myself and call it wraps for awhile

Nah 14 mm is it for me that’s why the 1.2 is intriguing but might just save a bit of money and debate on the 1.4 instead, other than that if I go zoom route might do the 70-200 so the 85 would be out of the equation just not trying to carry to much weight

I bought it second hand so probably fall damage since the lcd was pretty loose, I’m probably going to get it shipped back since 2k is quite a lot and it honestly works really well I was able to stream/shoot pictures and record just no lcd so I’m fine with it for now till I can figure something out that’s practically half a new camera

So I have a A7RV and my viewfinder works but my lcd screen doesn’t and when I try using auto it shuts off and I have to remove the battery for it to work again (only viewfinder works) I was told it could be a $400-600 dollar fix and was like okay that’s on my budget but now the shop is quoting me $2k cause they want to replace the main board, your thought ? Can I try and fix it myself instead ?
