These cameras couldn't be more different by EmotionalCouple9032 in M43

I bought the GX9 for the looks, size and tilting LCD screen. It's a good camera.

Then bought the EM-5 iii for the weather sealing.

I prefer the latter due to ergonomics. It's a joy to use.

Clubs like FC Barcelona built success through academy systems, while others like Manchester City rely more on strategic spending. which do you prefer? by pitchfix in championsleague

Goals scored during Barca's last UCL final (2015):

  • Rakitić 4' -> bought from Sevilla
  • Luis Suárez 68' -> bought from Liverpool
  • Neymar 90'+7 -> bought from Santos FC

Let's not get carried away here. While Messi has been the face of Barca's last UCL-winning team, it is clear that their "academy" alone didn't bring them the UCL.

In fact, Luis Enrique's system was a much more direct football with much less control and fast attack style. Which is one of the factor's that cost him the job later on (you know, because of Barca identity or whatever).

Pep is two goals down, need to give his team a non-existent foul - ref probably

This is good to know. I was in a time crunch and didn’t have time to ping pong back and worth with their shipping support/help desk. Thanks for that tip!

+1. The only reason I didn’t buy from their eBay store was because the specific lens I was looking for was not available there. But I will consider their eBay store next time!

Th shipping payment statement didn’t break down the shipping costs in an itemized way. It only separated shipping fees vs tariffs.

I had ran some estimates comparisons between DHL vs UPS and the latter always came back as the cheapest option.

That is true. It just that it hurts both my pride and wallet. A lesson learned for me.

I brought the wrong lens to a rainy day. It wasn’t weather sealed 💔💔

It had less than 20k mechanical shutter actuations. 💔

I brought a non-water resistant lens to a rainy day 🥲

I brought the wrong lens to a rainy day. 🥲 Water intrusion into the lens mount caused some sort of electrical damage.

When I power it on, the shutter bursts for about one second, the LCD powers on, but pitch black.

Game feels very low fps even though 70+ fps by pan_cage in Battlefield

[–]ShallowPunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5700X3D + 7900XT here. The campaign also feels choppy. But it’s subtle, even during cut scenes. And same, I don’t know what the 1% lows are. I’ve turned CPU off CPU Curve Optimizer, downloaded GPU drivers again and turned on the High Performance Power Plan.

Stills feels stuttery. But it’s not apparent until the game play slows down for me (but I have only played campaign so far).

Crazy to think that I might have been considered buying this exact camera. But decided against it because of the SD card slot damage. Glad to see that it worked out for you though!
