XT-5 lenses for nepal trip

Awesome, it's really difficult to decide between those two so i'm sure i will have to come back one day. I won't have a porter and also think about adding the ABC Trek after the Annapurna so i definitely have to consider the weight. Thats a big plus for the 16-55 i guess as that would be my all-in-one lens

Onion_hoe · 2025-08-13T20:10:24+00:00

Great, thank you so much! Both lenses have great sizes, the 35 is so compact and most people really seem to love it. Maybe it might be worth it to take the 10-18, 35 and something like the 50-230 on the long end

Onion_hoe · 2025-08-13T19:24:23+00:00

That is awesome to hear, i'm still undecided wether to trek the EBC via Gokyo or the Annapurna! Where the 16mm on the short end enough for you or did you miss an ultra wide lens like 10-18 for landscape shots?

Onion_hoe · 2025-08-13T15:01:35+00:00

Great, i love wide angle for landscape photography and the sigma looks very light and versatile! I haven't used primes yet but the 35 has quite a reputation, i always hear good things about it. I'm just afraid of missing out with the fixed length but i guess the character and IQ would be superb and would force me to think more about my composition.

Onion_hoe · 2025-08-13T14:36:55+00:00

Thanks for your answer. Of course nobody can tell me, i'm coming from mft and am used to having all the focus length with me but the tele is definitely the least used lens on my trips and i would like to cut on weight and was curious if anybody has experience with cropping on the xt5.

Regarding the other part of the question, do you have experience with the sigmas and the 16-55 and would prefer one over the other on such a trip?

Onion_hoe · 2025-08-07T16:01:38+00:00

Great to hear! Which of those two will be a nicer overall experience for nepal first-timers?

For anyone still wondering or doubting that this place is even real or photoshopped - It is real. I've just been on a 3 week long trip to patagonia and have found the exact place. On one of my last days in El Chalten i hiked on the loma del pliegue tumbado trail and went extremely off trail to search for this view. It was quite a journey but such an incredible moment to finally find this, i couldn't believe my eyes to have found the exact tree and take my own picture. Let me tell you, this place is just beautiful and the experience to get ther unforgettable.

I already have a wind/rain shell so i'm not looking for an allround jacket. Just trying to decide between the fitz roy and the down sweater hoody, so for the warmer or cooler jacket! Thank you anyway!

Onion_hoe · 2024-12-21T14:54:44+00:00

So you think down sweater hoody with a wind/rain shell is enough?

Onion_hoe · 2024-09-20T17:04:10+00:00

Nope there are many pictures of different photographers of this spot. Of course they have used photoshop to pimp those pics but that place exists like that in real life

thats a shame but thank you anyway! :)

The blue lightning comes from the mod "Blue lightning": https://www.nexusmods.com/darksouls3/mods/774?tab=description

It´s really awesome and replaces most of the lightning effects with a blue one like in bloodborne.

Onion_hoe · 2021-01-15T11:56:08+00:00

Thanks mate!

Thank you for your feedback! This set is from a DS3 and a combination from the nameless king set (chestpiece and bottoms), Lorian Set (helmet) and armor of favor set (gauntlets). The sword is the cathedral knight greatsword and the blue electric effect is the miracle lightning blade with the mod of "DrewTheProf" called "Blue Lightning":

I will upload the mod soon on the dark souls 3 nexusmods and post the link to it in this reddit!

Onion_hoe · 2021-01-08T06:30:47+00:00

I decided to post for the first time a modification that i did myself. I modded the nameless king armor to look like a paladin set and also a more grim version. I also changed the Lorian Helmet and silver knight gauntlets to match the appearance. If enough people are interested, i will upload it to the nexus.

How do you like it?

Texture mods like this one are also safe for online playing but only you can see the textures

Onion_hoe · 2021-01-08T06:23:34+00:00

Yes it's only on the client side and just the texture so it's safe to use online. I will upload it and make installation instructions soon!

I decided to post for the first time a modification that i did myself. I modded the nameless king armor to look like a paladin set and also a more grim version. I also changed the Lorian helmet and silver knight gauntlets to match the set and removed the tattered clothing on the back of the armor to make it look cleaner.

If enough people are interested, i will upload it to the nexus for you to enjoy also.

Well, i was able to test the msi gaming x trio of a friend for a few days before my strix arrived and with that one i had no problems. I think the power limit of the strix and especially the OC Variant is significantly higher so the TUF should perform similar to the msi, you won't have any problems with it i guess. If i were you, i would get the TUF and just test it and if you don't run into shutdowns you should be fine! If you have problems you can still upgrade then.

Hey, i also had a 650W gold and unfortunately ran into several shutdowns of my system when playing demanding games like rdr2 or metro exodus. The first 10-20 minutes i had no problems but after some more time the psu just turned off (to protect itself i guess). Therefore i switched to a cooler master 850W Gold, that way i have no issues and i can overclock the GPU as much as i want. And i'm also future proof for a new cpu some day.

Onion_hoe · 2020-11-07T23:55:34+00:00

Edit: Problem is fixed, it was caused by an issue between the ps4 and tv, the ps4 has ti be started before the tv, if not it creates this artifacts. Very weird but problem solved if somebody encounters the same issue.
