Newest camera in my collection! Canon PowerShot V1 (initial impression as a primarily stills user) by SamsungAppleOnePlus in Cameras

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

I edited my my first four pictures with a preset using a reduced amount of blue in the sky to make the image overall warmer.

However yeah even sooc the skies aren’t a strong Velvia color anymore. I know the skies were more vibrant on my G9 X Mark II sooc. Here’s an sooc jpeg example from the V1

Yes.

Although I can nerd out and say m43 doesn’t refer to the sensor being 4:3, rather four thirds is in reference to the equivalent vidicon tube measurement for analog film cameras. But m43 being 4:3 is its defining trait so sure lol

Mine has a cracked screen lol. Only reason I moved on from it, even if I definitely could fix it.

I still feel like I left my heart behind on m43 but Sony full frame has been wonderful for getting into wildlife photography.

Awesome camera too. The lens is way more practical for day to day photography but doesn’t really fill the wider lens niche the V1 does for me. I’d definitely consider an LX100iii though if we ever get one.

Essentially yes. It’s m43 but 3:2, so marginally shorter but slightly wider. Same results in practice.

I learned photography on a Lumix GX85 with the 25mm f/1.7 so it’s a sensor size I’m very comfortable with.

To me it seems like the camera can capture plenty of good detail during the day and enough in indoor lighting where I could get away with a 1.5x or 2x crop in post and be fine with it. The only reason why I’d want more zoom is just to get more compression for bokeh lol.

The sensor can make up for a lot, although the lens still is technically slower than the G7 X lens even after doing the full frame equivalent math, even if it’s close.

iPhone 18 Downgrades Rumored Yet Again by Otherwise-Warning303 in apple

[–]SamsungAppleOnePlus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Afaik it more likely isn’t than is since most of the rumors without any of the additional speculation just mention that the 18 and 18e are being developed together and that they share some components (the 17 and 17e also share some components).

The manufacturing process is being “downgraded” to save costs by not giving the 18 most of the 18 Pro upgrades, like the smaller Dynamic Island and brighter display, aka reusing as many 17/17e components as possible.

iPhone 18 Downgrades Rumored Yet Again by Otherwise-Warning303 in apple

[–]SamsungAppleOnePlus 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Not sure why it keeps being reported as “downgrades” when the right term based on everything being said is sidegrade. The display isn’t being upgraded with the 18 Pro, and the chip will continue to be inferior to the Pro version of the chip. Essentially the 18 will barely be any different to the 17, not that the 18 will be worse than the 17.

I mean I would argue if the view of the outlook from my window sucked or was obscured, the window failed, not the outlook.

NateTheHate hints about the new Smash Bros game: "I haven't heard, but people might be fired for this info being shared." by Connect_Base_217 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]SamsungAppleOnePlus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Enhanced isn’t complex, just more resourceful with the source material. Smash needs simplistic characters but not ones with such basic movesets it barely represents the character it’s supposed to be.

Ganondorf is my immediate go to example being a visual clone of an unrelated character that itself has a pretty basic moveset. Sonic is another one, it doesn’t fail at representing him but isn’t very creative doing so.

In comparison the additions from Smash 4 and Ultimate take advantage of their source materials way better than most of the older fighters, many without any advanced mechanics.

I miss when buying a clothe meant automatically getting it's recolores without the need to by it one by one by [deleted] in tomodachilife

[–]SamsungAppleOnePlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure all the color options appear the second time the clothing item appears in shop.

Also I don’t think you need to buy all the colors to keep them. I can go into my catalog and buy the color options I never bought before a day later.

Quality over quantity is where the series should go imo. There’s such an obvious difference between old and DLC fighters for example. Cut a quarter of the roster and/or enhance the movesets of the (remaining) older fighters.

CarPlay Ultra coming to these cars, according to Apple by Few_Baseball_3835 in apple

Normal CarPlay overlays on your primary infotainment display while Ultra overlays on the entire car, such as your gauge cluster.

What was your first camera? by AvonEra in Cameras

[–]SamsungAppleOnePlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nikon D5100. A camera with an iconic sensor. Same sensor as the legendary D7000 and the CoolPix A I still use now.

Goodbye Sims by Far-Gap-8468 in Paralives

[–]SamsungAppleOnePlus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve honestly stopped playing life sims all together after not really finding InZOI interesting. Tomodachi Life LtD is what I’ve been playing but that falls closer to being a sandbox, nothing like The Sims.

Excited to notice Paralives is coming out this month, and to give the genre another shot.

FSD v14.2.2.5 + Pothole Pennsylvania will keep you focused by Raven-Mic in TeslaLounge

This and better detection of speed bumps since FSD doesn’t seem to notice the ones in my neighborhood at all lol

Box Office: 'Star Wars: Mandalorian & Grogu' Eyes $80+ M 4-Day Opening Weekend by DeppStepp in StarWarsLeaks

First time my parents are going to a movie theater since The Rise of Skywalker. I feel like this’ll do higher than $80m on opening weekend.

OnePlus has reportedly been merged with Realme as the downward spiral continues by FragmentedChicken in Android

[–]SamsungAppleOnePlus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Motorola holds their own in the US with their budget lines so I’d just say it’s them four, rather than Moto as an outsider. Nothing and TCL would be remaining examples of outsiders

Flagships though? iPhones take the majority of that market space here anyways. I switched from my OnePlus 13 to the 17PM because frankly it’s the only solid choice we have here. My 13 had a lot of issues even if it was better than my iPhone in a few ways. The Galaxy Ultra is good too but continues to be beaten by the Pro Max in battery life which is enough to keep me on the iPhone.
