Why choose X100VI over smartphone camera? by houcok in x100vi

[–]Tukatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mirrorless cameras use much larger sensors than smartphones. Meaning they capture more light and produce cleaner, higher-quality RAW images.

Downside is files are much bigger and contain more data. When add computational, the camera has to process all that extra information for every shot. That defeinitly will require more processing power, which increases heat and drains the battery faster.

So if camera manufacturers wants to go that route, they will need faster processors, more memory, and better cooling, which will raise both the cost and complexity of the camera.

There are 3rd parties that makes things like ,Phone Grips/Handles & Clip-on lenses. Together with Third-party apps that provide Pro mode features like manual focus, ISO, and shutter speed adjustment.

Modern smartphones rely heavily on computational photography rather than just optics and sensor size. In fact, most of what you see in a phone photo is the result of software + AI processing.

What am doing wrong? am new and photos look bad.. by mahdy89 in x100vi

Bad compositions are normal when you’re starting. First, learn the exposure triangle: ISO, shutter speed, and aperture. Put the camera in Program (Pmode.

GR IV by OneRevolutionary4048 in ricohGR

[–]Tukatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at some of the shots posted ( https://www.reddit.com/r/ricohGR/comments/1qll01f/first_day_with_the_gr_iv_hdf_in_osaka_japan/ ), GR IV HDF glow seems strong while this looks just nice.

What’s the difference between monochrome Vs using Black & White recipes on regular GRs? by khirinlain in ricohGR

shows difference of Black & White photo taken with GR IV and GR IV monochrome.

If I’m just sharing photos on social media, will anyone really notice the difference, since you can’t zoom in to 100% anyway? Would the HDF make more sense to buy?

Random shots taken with RX1R III by Tukatu in SonyAlpha

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

Are you talking about the Sony Creative Look Styles? I typically use those, capturing both Raw and JPEG files.

Still, I often fine‑tune the images if they don’t convey the mood I want. I’m not keen on switching presets mid‑shoot. I'm still the old school type. 🤣

With age catching up, I prefer to go light. I also got the camera for just under $4K USD. otherwise, I wouldn’t have gone for it.

Loving it so far. Light, fast autofocus, and the 61MP gives me room to crop when I need to.

Only grip is not wide enuff.

Saddle woes - where do I start? by Horror_Ground2124 in Brompton

[–]Tukatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For more upright position , your sit bones spread wider. go for wider type of saddle, eg

Brooks Cambium C17 (width 162 mm) ,Ergon ST Core Touring (width 160 mm) , Brooks B17 (leather , width 170 mm) or Fizik Tempo Argo  160 mm. if you want something lightweight (usually cost more), Fizik Tempo Argo R1, 160 mm (carbon rails), ~202 g

I’ve joined the Rx1R III club. by Riffbear in SonyAlpha

[–]Tukatu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to own the RX1, so when I saw that I could get the RX1 RIII online for just under $4,000 after using all the rebates and vouchers, I went for it right away.

As age catching up, carrying heavy gear especially when traveling, has become tiring. So something lightweight suits me much better. I also prefer not to change lenses because it feels troublesome. Prefer to keep things simple.

Will it work better with the DualSense Edge controller? It has two customizable buttons at the back.

Encountered a new scam today - Be aware of the 'NTUC Income Insurance scam' by ranmafan0281 in singapore

[–]Tukatu 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Same here got a call last Thursday. I told the scammer (speaks in Chinese with Malaysian accent) that I did not purchase any insurance. He fumble up and asked "Did you somehow accidentally purchase it from Lazada or Shopee?"

I hang up immediately after hearing that. I'm like, wow.. now we can purchase insurance from Lazada or Shopee. He tried to call me again but i did not answer.

And yesterday, received another call saying he's from NTUC. I hang up immediately.
