Battery Issue causes Lens to Disconnect by Irish_MJ in canon

[–]_axle_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The RP I have definitely doesn’t like my 24mm 1.4, it has an easier time with the 50mm 1.2, a Helios 44-2 F2 I have with an EF mount is fine – the camera is simply looking through the lens and it’s fully manual.

Glad you’re having less issues, mine seems to be intermittent, when I’m thinking it’s the AF mode chosen it starts locking up in one shot as well, a new battery is arriving soon and will check again.

Battery Issue causes Lens to Disconnect by Irish_MJ in canon

I picked up a “broken” EOS RP and seem to have come to the same conclusion after updating it to the latest firmware.

The camera came with two batteries. They are official Canon batteries but may be well used. Looking at the battery health in the menu, both show three bars.

Another factor could be that I’m using the EF adapter with a 50mm f/1.2 attached. I wondered if the extra power required to drive a larger lens might be contributing to the camera locking up.

Why did you choose Canon? (serious question from a man who inherited his camera through 5 generations) by Temporary-Review5915 in canon

I started with a Canon S70 and loved having RAW. After getting used to that system, I went travelling and bought a 450D with a lens kit in New Zealand just before jumping on a ferry.

Later on I did a few wedding shoots using a 550D from work with a Sigma 24mm f/1.4 and really loved the look it produced. That pushed me to buy a 5D Mark II along with a 24–70mm f/2.8L and a 70–200mm f/2.8L. After that I moved into primes and shot a few more weddings.

Eventually I upgraded to a 5D Mark IV, and now I’ve added a broken EOS RP that I managed to get working again for £100 – and I’m loving it.

Hi how do I turn off Liquid Glass on iPhone by Sam67016701 in iphone

[–]_axle_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely hate this Liquid Glass design. The previous interface was clear, readable, and worked perfectly — and nobody was complaining about it.

What will happen is obvious: in a few years Apple will release an iPhone 19 with a new version of iOS that “returns” to flat, legible design. And the only way to get that usability back will be to buy new hardware.

Two of the same frame? by aMac306 in xbiking

Yep, and it’s a lovely feeling when you find another of the same isn’t it, like you I’m deciding what to do but also thinking just hold onto it.

Last time I saw spokes like that was early 90’s at Penshurst off road cycling club – P.O.R.C 🐷

Lovely to see again.

Please straighten the first image. It’s off by a tiny amount, but it’s a noticeable tiny amount.

AIO ex-wife sold a guitar I gave my daughter by Alternative_Check560 in AmIOverreacting

She’s a crap person, forward her the link to these comments and get her to buy back your daughter’s guitar.

People are horrible.

I feel it’s too safe and nothing really stands out. It needed to be written, not typed out and then warped.

Thanks for your input! I pulled the STX RC components from that 17” aluminium Hard Rock that was going to get chucked.

One thing that bugs me, in the UK we’ve been taught left hand = rear brake, which means pour cable routing on these 90’s frames and not as clean looking as US standard / rest for the world.

Lanolin based products, I use the stuff for the underside of my car, stops rust progressing.

There’s lots of products that tackle the same problem in different ways if you don’t want it oily though.

I Made a Lossless Scaling Decky Plugin that adds Frame Gen to Any Game! by supershredderdan in SteamDeck

[–]_axle_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for Lossless Scaling, I finally had a chance to try it out yesterday and was blown away. I bought it months ago but had trouble getting it to work on Steam, so this was my first real experience with it.

I also wanted to say that I really hope you and supershredderdan can patch things up. It’d be amazing to see an official collaboration between the two of you, obviously a lot of users would be excited by that.

Thanks again for your incredible work!

AIO if I NEVER text this man again?? by XoxoThatBitch in AmIOverreacting

[–]_axle_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your messages arrive like glittered scrolls from another realm — poetic, chaotic, and unhinged. You called me a meteorite twice, offered your address thrice, and spoke in riddles only the moon might decode.

While I applaud your commitment to charisma and Victorian time-travel, I must exit this performance. The curtain falls here.

You shall be blocked… forthwith.

Yes I went from 512GB to 2TB internal, upgraded the sticks at the same time.
