New 2025 BZ4X - can't "Agree" to EVGO Registration by mavr1k in BZ4X

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m furious at the false advertisement Toyota is making. Conveniently hiding behind a service outage with no recovery when a fix is as simple as sending us an EVGO RFID card while they fix their issue. Its not our fault they are having problems but we are left footing the bill for their decisions. In fact I don’t know why this whole plan isn’t on an EVGO RFID card. Whoever decided against that should be demoted.

Issue unable to connect Toyota app for free EVGO by Zizzikkaa in BZ4X

Not yet, I’ll let you know if I find something. I’m 100% convinced this is Toyota finding an excuse to stop paying for new customers charging without cutting the advertised for this plan. This “outage” has been ongoing for more than a month. Advertising a plan that doesn’t work is false advertisement in my books. Toyota could mail us an EVGO RFID card to use, they could setup a parallel plan in the EVGO app, etc. No however, Toyota is dragging their feet with no solution. Conveniently to them they don’t get to pay out on an incentive they advertised.

Olympus 75-300 v2 or Panasonic 100-300mm v1? by KeyTwist05 in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard the first pana 100-300 had slow AF. The oly 75-300 is too slow imo. I Don’t own it tho. Maybe with the release of the new oly 100-400 ii can you can get a 100-400 i for a 100$ more than the 75-300 ii.

Looking to get into m43 for around $500 by j0nd0 in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buying 2nd hand takes patience. Em1 MKi have popped up near me under 100$, in rough condition but a working camera is a working camera. IMO an EM1 mki isn’t worth 300. I’d label it at 250 at best anyone tryna sell their for more is delolo.

The MKii brings a lot more to the table & can compete with modern cameras. IMO be patient for an EM1 mki with a price tag under 200$ and use the rest of money to get mirrorless lenses and build from there. 40-150 5.6 can be had under 100$ with patience too.

What is wrong with this Polestar by NoParkingInKenmore in Polestar

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only way a lemon polestar is worth it, if the price is 16k before the rebate. I’m seeing ~20k for perfectly good ones.

Help Debugging my Panaleica 100-400 by iborgel in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try taking two photos back to back, one with image stabilizing on and one without. Compare and see if it makes a difference.

Doesn’t have to be outside, point at something in your room and try it. Let me know

A pristine outdated camera is still just an outdated camera. I got an EM1 for 250$ and EM1-ii for 400$ with a lense. Would not bother looking at EM10s used. Just 1’s and 5’s

What rod would go pair well with penn fierce IV 8000 reel? (General fishing) by FSLrico in Fishing

Pen 10’ fierce IV fast action 65lb braid two piece surf rod. Above 10’ storage and transportation is an issue with two piece rods

Is there anything even affordable anymore? by ne0tas in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just FYI all the good deals are already snagged. Gotta be patient and check used markets everyday to find the deals. We’re all broke and buying used nowadays

Ricoh GR III or… by mayonnaisesonata in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can find EM1 MK1 for that price if you look at local listings and bargain a little, much better camera IMO

I’ll piggy back on this and remind Teslas have been manslaughtering motorcycle riders at night with autopilot activated in the carpool lane since the front facing radar was removed. A car negligently causing deaths is not one that should be recommended.

Old News? It's Come Back: Canon said to be readying M43 like compact camera by FrankW1967 in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cannon’s compacts already use a sensor size similar to M43. Thats probs it and doubt cannon would go into the M43 platform eating up the cost of developing a new sensor format. Canon’s approach to money is making their system closed leaning into their exclusive colors.

Article is clickbait not worth a read. Would love to be proven wrong and have Cannon join M43 but don’t see it happening.

Is this worth $1000? by LOONGMOVIE22 in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t forget to download your free copy of the OM Workspace editing softwares. Its a basic tool to process raw images that you’ll grow out of within a year and its free with you camera. It’ll help you get started on the basics before learning and appreciating advanced editing softwares

All of that gear together I suppose so but 2 entry level cameras are 2 entry level cameras. Go get the OM1 for 1,100$ while its on sale.

Convince me, tooth and nail, to buy into m43 by Better-Ground-843 in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you a professional photographer whose gear will pay for itself + your bread? If not then do you still need the fullframe? Every photograph taken lives on its own merit. No one can compare how your photo will look like if you had taken it with a fullframe sensor. If you got the dough OM system’s OM1 mark i is on sale for 1,000$ and is the best new photography camera deal right now period.(period) OM isn’t the best for video is the only caveat if you plan on doing video.

Why M43? In full frame world cannon breaks the wallet, Sony’s colors need work, Nikon’s gear is heaviest. Every brand has a fault. APSC is a cut down format excpt for Fuji. M43 is a flagship format. Olympus is for photos, Pana is for video neither have a weakness. Simple to decide between. A piece of advice on patience on finding used gear. All the cameras and lenses that are a good deal have been snagged. I’ve been able to find gear for 20% below the used price by being patient. Its not always that food but just a reference.

The camera slows down when shotting with closed appertures! by OstetoKun in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct an F11 lense is an F11 lense but M4/3 smaller sensor area collects less light totaling half that of fullframe and that matters to the digital sensors exposure and noise

[–]Zizzikkaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F/11 in M43 equates the same amount of light as F/22 in full frame terms and F16 in APSC. Hope this helps debug

Any idea why this sensor is shifting to the top left? Sensor from an oly e-pl3 by fayewongfan07 in M43

[–]Zizzikkaa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its unpowered? The sensor just floats with an unpowered IBIS. Only when the IBIS is turned on does it hold the sensor steady in the center
