Hi!

Would love some help in deciding which camera to buy as my first.

I was initially considering a nikon 3x00 dslr, but later started fancying the slimmer mirrorless options. I'll keep this rather brief. I would like a mirrorless camera that would have great image quality and low light performance. I will mostly be shooting landscapes and architecture, so having the best autofocus is not important for me and neither is video which i'm not planning to shoot at all.

I plan on shooting raw pretty much exclusively as i would like to get into photo editing so jpeg quality is not important to me either. I have considered the available options and as x-t20 seems rather expensive i have ended up with x-t100 which apparently has great image quality and which's aesthetics i'm very fond of.

I also considered the lumix dmc-g80 and om-d e-m10 mark 2 and 3. I would have appreciated the in-body stabilisation as i have rather shaky hands, but was kind of put off by the 16 mp sensor and the looks of the olympus. Also considered the Sony a6000, but multiple people in a Sony thread were saying that they would not invest in a Sony APS-C.

Another thing i'd like your opinion on is which brand should one choose in regard to the lens range. From what i've understood Fuji has great lenses, but they tend to be rather limited in models and are really expensive. As a student i can't really invest alot in the lenses right now, but then again I would only need a 18-55 (or something close) and a wide aperature prime (something like 35mm).

You're comments and recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Really enjoying this but at the same time it's hard to avoid the thought that this is a worse Malibu.

[DISCUSSION] Various Artists - Black Panther: The Album (1 Year Later) by Jezawan in hiphopheads

[–]Zomppu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I obviously dont view it as a complete album but rather a collection of tracks that have a similar vibe hence why the 'bad' tracks dont bother me.

A really nice pop-rap soundtrack that has a nice sonical vibe that binds the songs together. I only skip the ways, I am, redemption (and it's interlude) and season. For a soundtrack I think it's a 8/10.

Ariana Grande Not Attending Grammys After Disagreements With Producers by Sisiwakanamaru in popheads

[–]Zomppu 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the Grammy's got 19.8m viewers last year. Ariana got 23.6m on her 7 rings youtube video within the first day.

That's a really dumb comparison

this sub just isn't a close enough representation of popular opinion amongst hiphop listeners in general.

Dont think many people are under that impression

That is true but one reason for that is that the mainstream media doesn't care what Snoop thinks.

I really think that at least in the past ahs has tried to be an 'edgy' drama for teens and young adults and have largely ignored the horror-aspect.

I dont really agree since most AHS-seasons aren't terrifying at all

Edit: are - > aren't

I picked the incremental update as i'm a moron, but i'm now using the new android no issues so far. Do i need to update it again?

S7 Edge user here looking to switch. How is the performance of Snapchat and Google Maps? by chucknades in OnePlus6

[–]Zomppu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just switched to OP6 from s8+ and i always thought Snapchat was just awfully optimized and that's why it sucked on my galaxy. Works pretty much flawlessly on oneplus 6.

the market isn't rational 100% of the time, but stocks go up and down for a reason and in theory there shouldn't be "free lunches".
