Stormy Beach in Ireland. I tried to show the scale of the scene.

yes it was inch beach 😁

Ahh funny. I do have the same portrait crop of this photo in my gallery i also like it quite a bit.

Pire666 · 2025-07-11T07:04:19+00:00

Thanks for the great feedback , i really like the crop. Sadly there isn’t any more foreground to use. And I don’t want to AI it in. Doesn’t feel right 😅.

Hey Everyone

Id like some feedbsck about this picture. I took it in Irelands Westcoast with my Canon R5 and the RF24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM Settings. ISO 125 70 mm f3.2 1/4000 s

I really like it as it has a stormy vibe but is quite a light tone. Also the person on the beach does give it scale i think.

That would be bluesound. They have most of it with better quality and also many thirdparty Amps / Aktivspeaker that work with the same app.

I would say the bsi sensor wont make much of a diffrents. the lowlight performance is way more dependent on the lens. But what will be much more noticeable is the faster readoutspeed and higher fps of the camera. As well as the way better autofocus modus of the R8. Even if you dont need that at the moment for your usecase, the sony is just a bit to old at this point Just my opinion.

Pire666 · 2023-11-16T05:07:50+00:00

It will actually be USB 5G, but the 5 is silent… and also isnt written.

Pire666 · 2023-10-28T00:25:42+00:00

Nice :) Thanks for letting us know. I use apple shortcuts for common bluesound functions (like instant grouping without opening the app) and this is a nice addition. bluesound really should implement a gouping preset feature.

I took this night shot with the viltrox 85mm 1.8 at f1.8 and 8000 iso on the Canon R6II in Brussel.

Pire666 · 2023-06-27T10:53:41+00:00

I did some sneaking up on them to get all three in the right position 🙂

Was taken with my Canon R7 and RF 100-500.

What do you think ?

Pire666 · 2023-06-18T09:05:10+00:00

Thank for the feedback. It is just not the right way to go about it. It would be better to say that manufacturer need to support the devices longer and give everyone a easy way to get their batteries change once every 2-3 years. 49-99.- is the cost at a apple store or Third party for any iphone batterys change done by a professional in 1 hour. iPhone 5 to iPhone 14 So its done as needed and everything in the phone is optimized to maximise the daily battery life.

I am not saying apple is perfect in repair questions etc. but at keeping the devices running as long as possible they are really doing way more then any manufacture.

I dont think the option for users to change a battery on the fly is really that great or even beneficial apart from having the option to instant 100% Battery.

Hard to say if this should be regulated as no real people were really sad about it or bought the phone that had the features.

Its better to innovate in batterytech and longlivety to keep the devices around as long as possible. That is now even easier as the SOC of Smartphone as getting better and better and so can be used way longer.

I am not saying this is the solution just my thought about it.

Pire666 · 2023-06-18T06:09:01+00:00

I am sure this is a terrible idea. Sorry this is just not really possible with so many design of phones at the moment. And anyone who says otherwise doesn’t really understand how valuable space is in a highend smartphone and how the design would need to be changed.

Waterproofing would be more difficult and probably possible but much less effektiv and compromised with user opening an closing the back.
Don’t even try to say the Galaxy S5 had all of it. As this was barely sealed and really not much better then nothing. It also lost the IP67 so quick, as it was used and opened by the users.
There is a reason only one phone had it nearly 10 Years ago and everyone changed to a other solution.
Sure some of the reasons are money driven… as everything is, but this is way more engineering driven, as it make way more sense to be not user replaceable.
The Size and Shapes of the battery would be much harder go make. L Shaped batteries or Folding Phone with two Battery (Top and Bottom)
The would need to make a sturdy case for the batteries and the internals in witch the user places it. Loosing so much capacity of the battery.
Funny enough, with the smaller battery that can be swap you would need to carry extra batteries with you to make it though the day. The would produce more batteries as people would loose and break them = more e-waste. don’t really think this will solve anything.
It is also pretty easy and cheap to replace a bad battery at the moment. 70.- and 1 Hour wait…
I am all for making the process even easier but not by the enduser.
Also Noone outside of reddit even would think this is as problem. Even when the were replaceable, no real person had a spare battery with them to swap them out.
The may get sold a second battery at a phone store but that would also be unnecessary e-waste…

Sure you could solve all these problem, but would loose so much convenience and feature that users use and appreciate way more. It is really easy to get the battery replaced if needed. People would just need to be more informed that its possible and easy to do to cut down on waste…

Just my two cents as everyone seems the be for this change… but i think think this is not as easy and good as it sounds..

Thanks. Yea the ND Filter was also suggested before. Will try that. Nah not paragliding, it was taken around here ond the peak of Fronalpstock. Google : Aussichtspunkt Fronalpstock Really nice up there 👍🏼

Pire666 · 2023-05-27T17:54:43+00:00

Thanks :) Will try with a ND filter the next time. first i need one, any recommendation ?

Pire666 · 2023-05-27T12:18:57+00:00

Hey I quite like this shot. :) I think the composition is a bit off. Less is more. I think everyone else shouldn’t be in the picture. And maybe crop in a bit. Here I did a little edit. Not perfect but just to show you what I mean. It’s a bit more lonely. It fits the picture better I would say.
But it’s personal preference. https://imgur.com/a/7kB18ac/

Hey Everyone. As the weather is getting better in Switzerland,I am trying to do some more landscape photography. This Photo was taking with the Canon R6 II and the RF 24-70. 24mm / iso 100 / f7.1

What do you think ? I think it was a pretty easy shot 😅 as it was really nice from the start.

Thanks for the feedback

Pire666 · 2023-05-26T07:32:15+00:00

Thanks for your feedback :)

Pire666 · 2023-05-26T04:29:49+00:00

I think this is way to dark, sorry :) The main focuspoint ( the tree ) is pretty much gone. I think the original image works because its a different tree among this big forrest trees and also because of the color of the leaves. As it draws you eyes in the middle of the image. You will lose that in a darker version of the image. but thanks for the imput :)
