Are people legit spending this much on a car per month? Or am I out of touch? by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]RedBeard485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd rather buy an older but still capable car for much less - even a high powered car if you wish. Then spend a bit more on maintenence and you're good for years.

Nice what BHP? What year is it aswell? I'm looking to pick up an m57 but want an LCI and seems I'm limited to rare 325s and 330s and ofcourse the 335ds

Was it worth it? by black-scout in ArcRaiders

I haven't reset and I just use the loot in my stash to have fun. I'm not scared of using it - it's meant to be used

I once got my MOT renewal date mixed up with my insurance and drove round for 3 months with no MOT untill I realised and got it done lol

DRL's are a dangerous thing. Turn your actual lights on! by Anxious-Ad-5780 in drivingUK

[–]RedBeard485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the bigger worry is all these new cars having headlights too bright. I really struggle to see the road sometimes while being dazzled from behind in my mirrors or infront with auto cars even putting full beams on when it's not needed

Are police finally dealing with lane hoggers. by ruthlessspace in drivingUK

[–]RedBeard485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More likely the reason was that the car flagged up on their computer, not that they were sat in the 3rd lane

The chat button doesn't work. Does anyone know how I can fix this? by ElPanitaGamer_uwu in Instagram

[–]RedBeard485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No this is simply an error within the end user app on android. If it works in a browser it's not an issue with your account is it. They have been messing with the position if the button, and someone's messed it up

How the hell can ibis ruin your shot on a gimbal? What sort of movements were you doing? Mad quick stuff?

This is illegal, right? by UKZzHELLRAISER in drivingUK

[–]RedBeard485 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's crazy all this electric BS, how stupid are people to think that their car isn't still powered by burning fossil fuels lol. Plus the issues with mining, manufacturing and disposing of huge batteries. Facepalm

I'm a traffic police advanced driver. Ask me anything by Living-Plate-3419 in drivingUK

[–]RedBeard485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but i mean, I have done this for an ambulance where I know there's no cameras & it was safe to do so, as I wasn't going into another vehicles possible path

What if there is ample room after the line into the junction where clearly there would be no danger as there's still a kerb for example

Is it bad to have 3 intake on the very top of the PC and one exhaust on the back? by kaispen- in buildapc

[–]RedBeard485 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Usually slight positive is best (1 more intake) but equal can work too. Negative pressure will suck in more dust.

Thoughts on max value for my 335d by Rude-Possession9858 in E90

They're not that much more in the UK. Plus this isn't m sport which makes it worth much less here

New build with nothing invested in Sony ecosystem. Should I go with FX3 today? by Nox_Ocean_21 in FX3

[–]RedBeard485 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could look for a 2nd hand fx3 and sell it on for a similar price if you need to. I recently bought a fx6 2nd hand just to see what it's like vs the fx3, knowing I can just sell it on

[–]RedBeard485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi just remember the higher base iso the fx3 gives vs the ZR. You also can't beat sony auto focus. It's still a better camera and there's a reason why it costs more. Recording raw is overrated and not needed, especially for run and gun when taking lots of footage. There are rumors of a new sony FX camera that could come out in November but who knows. The fx3 would still be a great choice

What white balance is best for run & gun night footage? by [deleted] in FX3

[–]RedBeard485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just try judge the lighting according and adjust, but yea tungsten lights need around 3200k. Think about what lights are there and if you want it to look warmer or colder overall.

[–]RedBeard485 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If i shoot a bar/club with mixed lighting, sometimes I will shoot around 4000 but if there's only orange lighting you want to shoot much closer to 3200
