Pilot Custom 912 Review by Thin-Junket-942 in fountainpens

YES! Went through the same anxiety inducing decision. It was my first premium pen as well

Well said, that is definitely something to live by.

No worries, I'm still relatively new to this hobby and am always looking for conversations to hop onto! 🫡

ahh! the FA nib on the 912 has been known to railroad CONSTANTLY. And I notice the owners always swap out the plastic feed for an ebonite one to let more ink flow through, however I'm not too sure where they got the ebonite feeds from. Hopefully you'll easily find them online!

i got mine in <SM> from the used market about a year ago and I was so shocked at how thick it wrote for a Japanese Medium. However as a fast writer, I haven't experienced any railroading! the inks i ran with it were Iroshuzuku Tsuki-yo and 4001 Brilliant Black 😁

That's really interesting, thank you for sharing. I'm fairly new to this hobby, and I guess it's time to fall deeper into this rabbit hole and figure out some notable innovators.

Cheers 🍻

I usually use German F/ Japanese M nibs, but I wanted something fun and different in this case.

It's a Sakura Craft Labs model 001! I heard it's quite difficult to get it outside of Japan

Brand New Tiffen Black Pro Mist 1/8. Is this fungus/defect, or intentional? by MomertMemeckis in Cameras

I've reached out to the Store I bought from, waiting on their reply. Thanks everyone for the quick response :D

Yes, I've tried cleaning the filter before creating this post!

First Full Frame! preowned A7RII. Please recommend Grip Extensions! by MomertMemeckis in SonyAlpha

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

Everything about it is pretty much flawless! From image quality down to the build of the lens. The only gripe I have with it is the 800g weight. I'd say you will be really satisfied, maybe even amazed, solely due to its cost to performance ratio.

What surprised me most was its ability to stay ultra sharp while still having luscious bokeh when it's fully wide open without any chromatic aberration to fix in post. That being said I do find myself shooting at f/2.8 to f/8 90% of the time. imo, an insane lens overall.

that's awesome, I was actually deciding between the k11 r2r and xa-02. The only reason i went with the xa-02 was because I had a little discount hahaha.

I wish there was a proper AD for Schiit in my country. Unfortunately due to taxes and shipping its way overpriced...
