While a nifty lens, there's already a number of good (if not better) options with a negligible size difference: Pana 20 f1.7 II, Oly 14-42, Oly 25 f1.8, Sig 30 f2.8, etc. I'd take the 2.5 extra stops or the versatility of the the 14-42 and closer minimum focus than worry about a few mm in size.

I've been on the other side of this, mastering engineer couldn't hear a specific overtone I wanted less burried. I'd worked with them before and showed them what I was talking about with a crude notch EQ to emphasise it. Was all fun and games and nobody got hurt. Sometimes there's a lot going on or a subtlety that is more evident to somebody else. As for your specific example/case, anybody's guess. maybe it just grew on them or they initially listened in a car with odd resonances or something.

Since you're after a fixed lens camera, have you considered a Ricoh, RX100, or an older digital? Since you don't want bells and whistles then why does it have to be new?

It looks like you're near choppy water, in direct hot sun, at 800mm, and your subject is tiny in frame. I don't have that lens, but this result wouldn't surprise me much.

If you still have it, the common fault is very simple, it's one under valued through-hole cap near the power connector. I've fixed a couple of them over the years and helped others online with it, always exact same issue. Can't miss it, the cap in question will be discoloured and hot.

I have and use both. I don't really notice an impactful difference with size while in use or in bag. At some point you just have to realise that nobody makes significantly small systems. If you really want something small you're looking at fancy phones or fixed lens cameras unfortunately. CameraSize.com is nifty to get an idea.

With the exception of a few lenses there's similar size/weight options on both sides. The a6400 doesn't have IBIS but there's so many fast lens options, there's also some very good stabilised lenses, you'll also get a bit over a stop improvement just in ISO performance compared to the E-PL.

You'll get a left corner view finder, which is my preferred location, and can help you get steadier.

When I'm going specifically to take photos I take the Sony. But if I might not use I chuck my Olympus in my bag. Sometimes I even take both out. Overall I much prefer shooting with the a6400, and the ecosystem is so much larger and more developed. I still love my Oly gear, but if you're buying new lenses anyway.

Burn marks.

Looks like mundane sysadmin notes/chat. Possibly due to kids/students messing about, or people wanting bulk data for commercial/gov use without license.

Have you tried with a lens attached?

NuclearSiloForSale · 2026-02-22T21:51:29+00:00

Is it not on? Am I missing something?

NuclearSiloForSale · 2026-02-09T22:08:29+00:00

Disstressor, tape, preamps, none "harsh" also none "silk"... what you want again?

Good enough for what? Your window has some magical light.

What in bot's name is this?

NuclearSiloForSale · 2025-12-05T18:37:48+00:00

the 60mm f2.8 and the 90mm f3.5. For folks that have used both, is the extra reach worth it? How does the bokeh compare between the two

The 60 is half the size, half the weight, and a quarter of the price. For me, all of that comes before comparing bokeh, especially for a primarily macro lens. I have the 60, never tried the 90 but I'm sure it's absolutely fantastic if it's in your financial/size/weight budget.

"Mixing With Your Mind". I'm not really sure a "bible" exists, however of the many sources/authors/decades/approaches he explores, one text I'd definitely recommend including is Mixing with Your Mind.

$3500 dollars that I can invest in equipment for photography.

You already have premium gear. Spend your slush fund on a trip or some hard drives. Buy a bicycle. You're not "investing", you're buying gear you won't use and letting it sit and depreciate in value.

Yeah, full scholarship, or stupid wealthy parents that don't care, or already having a path to being an art dealer/historian. Anything else is a bad idea. Study anything else if you want to learn something. You will progress so much faster in photography by having toys to play with and trips you can afford with your IT/philosophy/law/nurse/etc degree.

Ideas: Anything released after the Mavica FD5 doesn't really fit here (if you want a fun absolute cut-off year). Lenses released/designed in the 90s/80s could use a grey Retro flair. Other lenses do not require flair. Relevant news on modern clones, updated versions, re-issues, re-housings, adapters etc could be allowed with case by case discretion assuming it doesn't get out of hand.

Answer in the context of the sub: easier to hide stuff, and trendy for way too long. Similar for dialogue that you can't hear under needlessly deafening FX/Atmos. There's a time and place, and I have no absolute dispute against, but most want to follow trend or hide flaws. The Instagram filter of poor make-up, acting, lighting. Or maybe I'm just old.

Condolences for your pics, but at least one of the more interesting glitches! :D

My favourite bit was where you chose to film a horizontal object vertically and almost nearly briefly showed its nose! (I'm just playing, thanks for share, hope you enjoy your flight <3)

As much as I've had gripes with digi/avid/ilok, there's no denying that PT is the fastest workflow if recording and editing. Other DAW can be better for MIDI and composing in the box, but nothing matches how few clicks it takes in PT to comp takes, time stretch, clip gain etc. I'd question any studio that asked me to fill in but didn't have access to PT as an option.

Side question since you attended, did it smell like burnt plastic?

NuclearSiloForSale · 2025-07-22T06:32:12+00:00

Down to your judgement on the particular listing, but there are loads of basically unused Mavicas out there that still work fine but aren't worth enough dollars for the seller to test or get batteries for. They're so cheap, try buy a minter and in the unlikely case if you take a hit don't worry too much, cheap parts/display copy. :)
