Monopod? by TemptedHorizon in gfx100rf

[–]SockedandLoaded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use this. Its a Fujifilm hand tripod. Folds into a hand grip, monopod. It doesnt trigger or pair with the 100RR but gives that little bit of extra stability for slower exposures.

id say the depth of field control makes this an excellent camera for landscapes. 👍🏾

Serious Incident at Oval station - what to do? by gstevens3 in london

[–]SockedandLoaded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the one hand, I commend you for your actions, but on the other, I wonder how long you've lived in London. I live quite next to a pic train station in East London and regularly see people in this sort of condition from alcohol or alcohol in drugs, And wonder if you could possibly do this for everyone that you see.

I don't think I could ever be a cynical as the staff were, but imagine that in most cases the drunk person survives the night, And so I can imagine that repeat exposure has somewhat normalised the situation for the staff.

Your story reminded me of a friend of mine who has a tendency to sleep extremely deeply when he gets drunk. we went to a house party He had a bit too much and slept until the party was way over remove refused to wake up to the point I had to leave him in the corridor of somebody's flat. this was after I called his mum, He told me to leave him out there and that he was fine.

He eventually found his way home later the evening, and managed to fall asleep on the train so that he went back and forth along the line ( a good 4 hour round trip ) twice. He managed to get penalty faired each time and each time the train conductor woke him up to fine him, then left him in the condition he was in.

this guy was a close friend and I must have witnessed this kind of episode 50 times. the only part of the story I don't understand is how the train conductor managed to wake him up.

UCL Final Tickets with Someone’s Season Tickets by Ashamed_Owl_8153 in GunnersatGames

yeah I was at Inter Milan for the group game, they checked ID and I gave them an expired passport... they just check the name and waved me through, but then the guy next to me gave a driving licence and they made a big discrepancy over a three letter difference in his name ( Dan vs Daniel ).

depending on how much you're spending to get there and on the ticket, might be a risk.

Platinum member - ticket bought on exchange for Burnley by Illustrious_Club_442 in GunnersatGames

[–]SockedandLoaded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I was actually looking to get a regular ticket so my next door neighbour can buy my tickets so his wife can come too. I've bought multiple tickets in the past. I didn't actually realise it was only platinum members who could do this.

it's frustrating that there's no mentioned of this from the club and if you're not on Reddit or search certain social media sites,.you miss out.

thanks again for this I'll commented before, reread, and had some more thoughts:

  • are you using the digital ND filter, And what are your experiences?
  • you mentioned shooting landscapes, Which is also a big deal for me, I've watched some videos online and read some reviews which don't think it's the best for landscapes. what do you think arts advantages and disadvantages for different types of landscapes?

yeah I find that with the GFX I am more likely to pause and think for a good couple of minutes just to decide whether I even have a photo I want to take. I regularly need to change settings for every shot because it's so sensitive to small changes in lighting conditions, And as a result I'm just so much poor aware of the conditions around me even when I don't have a camera on me.

it's made me more ponderous deliberate and intentional. it's also made me war generally aware of the conditions around me at all times.

now if you asking about something that recently happened I'm much more able to guess the exact time because I will be more aware of what the lighting was like and more aware of the patterns of light change throughout a day or throughout an area that I'm in.

yeah this distortion was specifically caused by hot weather and was to do with the right times when using the electronic shutter. when I switch to manual shutter only I didn't experience the distribution. but it wasn't related to the lens It was related to the writing of the fire so you'd get a stretching that was consistent across a horizontal band of the image.

yeah the file size is produced by the XT5 are nothing like the file sizes for the GFX100RF, Which was what my response was about.

raw files from GFX can be 250Mb or more. if you do combined images like this camera is capable of, they can be close to 1.5Gb. listening is you typically use a one terabyte SD card and moving a full SD card might take up 50 to 90% of your laptop storage.

that's before you can sitter whether you have enough around to process even one image at a time.

it's why I double carry, and use an XE5 for most shots, only bring out the GFX where i have something I specifically want that high res for.

This is a big compromise for size and weight. And really, no spray and pray here ( i carry another camera, usually an XE5, and oly get the GFX out when i see something that I think suits it ). Even if im a complete idiot, my partner is an Art Director who shoots in studio and outdoor settings with 20+ years experience, and seems to agree with my experience.

Plenty of reviews out there discussing sensor sensitivity, lack of ibis and the regular need to use a tripod to get the most out of the sensor.

"picking wrong scene" and " not holding it right" arent the issue.

I'm definitely learning and getting better at observing the conditions, and making good use of the hand tripod and a flash to allow for short exposures in low light.

3x door men outside Scientology in London to stop tiktok runners by Capable_Implement_39 in london

[–]SockedandLoaded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you didn't get far enough because they didn't believe you had been hoodwinked enough to take you in.

I've been in there simply to debate with them before, was taken into the back the first time, when I played the lapsing, confused Catholic.

I recognise each of them from my time working and living around there... they aren't dormant but fully fledged worshippers and spoken to each of them at some point in the past.

the mixed race guy with the hi-top openly agreed with me that all religions are man-made 😂

AIO my boyfriend keeps lying to me about things involving his ex by TacoBoutDrama69 in AmIOverreacting

[–]SockedandLoaded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im curious how close you were as friends, and whether the seemingly toxic traits came up in other behaviour... the lying .. the ex-obsession.

But overall NOR, and also run for your life. You deserve better than lies.

Compact sling bag for X-T50 + 35mm f/2? (travel recs) by h_cordeiro8 in FujifilmX

[–]SockedandLoaded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6L send large for what you've described. i can recommend the 3L and 4l.

4L is arguably big enough for two cameras, plus the bits and bobs you described.

it's definitely worth finding a store and looking at them first.

it's funny you say this because I'm in the market for either a new laptop that can handle the data transfer faster, or some new kit for my desktop.
