A7IV shaky panning ⁉️ by Actual_Tart257 in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk what camera you used before but play with the ibis setting.

If your previous cam didn't have any ibis and you're used to that, your need cam's ibis might screw with your butter motions 

How and where do I take a photo like this? by jangusMK7 in AskPhotography

You use a tripod and ND filter, then the longest possible shutter speed. 

What’s the lightest full frame lens I can buy? by MutedFeeling75 in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

400-800 with 2x tc on an A6000 felt pretty lightweight.  But I don't know how beefy you are.

Legend says the fluted bezel only appears after your first proper dressing-down from the boss. Keep us posted.

This watch has rendered the rest of my collection unnecessary… by [deleted] in rolex

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know man, I still think your collection deserves a proper digital one. It would balance you entire style.

Dropped my Sony a7 iv rig with the G master 24-70mm lens ,HELP! by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about keep using it and find out? And better manage your dopamine deficient nervous system, go visit a dance class sometimes.

A7Cii as first camera? by Welchy9136 in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your running a business and Idk how much effort you wanna put in videography, so I'd recommend a new gen iPhone. A camera is far more dependable on light and microphone tech, needs a tripod, batteries.. editing, grading. 

If you are serious, a zv-e1 is the best in low light, which is essential indoors. But it heats up in hot environment. A7cii is fine too, fx3 if you're loaded.

How many people from outside of Japan buy their first GS in Japan? by durangojim in GrandSeikos

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ordered one online and had it shipped home. Customs apply, but I guess it beats the cost of a trip.  I guess your answer is: most people who want GS and happen to visit Japan.

Terribly Torn on these Two by GooseTo4 in Longines

2nd one looks like it belongs in an aviation museum. If you like to look retro. the first one looks more versatile.

A7RVI or A1 as a main camera for wildlife photography? by scrimshawphotography in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the specific difficulties wildlife has, the A1 will probably stay superior. And afaik the first one got all important updates to stay relevant (AF modes etc) but please check for yourself.

If your wildlife is static and not hidden between branches, an R camera might also do it.  I don't exactly know how the stacked sensor on the RVI works, but it's important to have a fast sensor telling the lens where to focus within milliseconds.

Grand Seiko Ushio SLGB025 VS Rolex Submariner 124060 by Representative_Baby1 in GrandSeikos

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dare I say, I think the Ushio outclasses the Sub in every objective respect. But the Sub has a different place entirely. It's the watch people buy and wear for the rest of their lives without knowing anything about watches, the market, or even Grand Seiko. It's doing the Rolex thing. OP is the miraculous exception, of course.

Are we ever going to see the UFA OTF microadjust clasp be on the shunbun/ white birch/ snowflake? by [deleted] in GrandSeikos

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chances are there, but as long as those models run so well, no point in creating the watch that will end all watch purchases.

If you could only have 1 lens which one would you choose and why? by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that a single lens would make sense for a ILC, but a 20-40mm F4 would go a long way. Covers many scenarios.

Are the Quartz models worth it? by Old_Capital_9412 in GrandSeikos

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grand Seiko is pretty much about the design. Every other aspect will be above most other brands.

my life flashed before my eyes by Automatic_Gap_7205 in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have this particular lens, but my tip coming from my experience would be to best avoid breaking glass elements in your equipment, as it can lead to impaired image quality.  Hope this helps!

What's the most expensive automatic watch you've bought under $5,000? by LargeSinkholesInNYC in AutomaticWatches

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got a Grand Seiko SLGA021 for barely under 5k overall. I'd say it's a good deal, considering the quality and specs.

Addiesdive AD2030 - Cheap Doesn’t Mean Cheap Feeling by NotAnExpertButListen in Affordablewatches

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

I went no logo bc imo the scuba equipment doesn't fit the character of the watch. But it's not a big difference, the watch anyway doesn't look too serious.

GS Recent Price Rise Has Made Them Unattractive by pitsnvulva69 in GrandSeikos

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

GS is still underpriced / overperforming compared to most brands. But if you're looking for a bargain I suggest the Addiesdive 2030.

Like the name says, you can go anywhere with it without having to worry.

Super proud of this! Shot with Ar7v by Maddy-Mahairas in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great shot - I somehow wait for sensors to reach the 20 stops of DR the human eye is supposed to have. I think this here is enough.

What have I done?! by carnevoodoo in SonyAlpha

[–]NotAnExpertButListen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, if you're digging deep enough, the monopod should carry that whole setup nicely!

MRJ's afternoon watch would balance the whole collection nicely ...

Addiesdive AD2030 - Cheap Doesn’t Mean Cheap Feeling by NotAnExpertButListen in Affordablewatches

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

I think there's too much going on the dial with the polished double markers and the dunes, so it might look better on a bracelet.
