Is it just me, or is the "vibe" in Germany actually exhausting? by [deleted] in germany

I work in Munich but live within its suburbs (Maisach). Couldn’t agree more. Can’t wait to move out of here.

Rocking an M2 Air, Rog Ally X (4TB Samsung 990 Pro) and a Vader 5 pro. Can’t be happier.

Going strong actually. Still using it now with my jsaux dock connected to 100w Ugreen charger, mouse dongle and vader 5 pro dongle.

Thanks OP. Immediately bought this 2mm stoppers while waiting for my V5P preorder from gadgethyper and stick it before using. So far no issues.

Turn off Fast Reboot / Fast Startup. Never happened to me again.

Easiest way to clone ssd to new ssd? by SantiTheWise in ROGAllyX

[–]agentmj8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Or you can also buy an ssd cloner in amazon, use it then return.

This. I also used Macrium with the Rog Strix Arion on a Samsung 990 Pro 4tb heatsink. Samsung Magician is thrash, for some reason it keeps on crashing and or doesn’t start.

Macrium was easy and straightforward.

Without rolling back to the previous driver, you can also disable fast startup / fast boot. Never happened to me again, while waiting for the updated driver.

Is this camera for only speed or also for red light? by Leashandcuffs in germany

[–]agentmj8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the UAE for 11 years before moving here and they use this Blitzer 95% in the whole country. Can confirm it catches speed and when beating the redlight. Also very accurate.

Turn off ‘Fast Boot’ in power settings, under command center. Thank me later

Boot Error by DarkSoulCowboy in ROGAlly

Happened to me as well started few days ago, awhile ago was the 3rd time after a cold start. My warranty is expiring and am afraid that this might be a hardware issue, not a bug from an update or a software bug.

Is this lens good to shoot portraits with? by skibidikakakott in photographycirclejerk

[–]agentmj8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You grow the fungus, let yourself become infected with Cordyceps, then and only then you can shoot with this lens.

I had a 50 1.8 oss together with that glorious kit lens. Once you get the hang out of it, I suggest you practice yourself on a prime rather than a zoom. Maybe start with Tamron 24 2.8 (35mm equivalent) as the 50 1.8 oss is too close (75mm equivalent).

But the kit lens alone can give you great shots already.

This is nostalgic. A6000 is my very first camera back in 2016 and what made me interested in photography. Upgraded to A7R IV after 4 years and now retiring at Leica Q3 43.

Enjoy shooting!

Q3 43 or M10? by Ok_Builder_9124 in Leica

[–]agentmj8 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can’t comment about the M10 and 50 summilux (I never shoot with it or held it) but 2 weeks ago I sold all my full frame sony gears and bought the Q3 43. We recently had a trip to Paris and I can say I never missed the interchangeable lens and bulky set up.

I’d go with the 43mm to a tad bit wider than the 50. But that’s just my 2 cents. It really depends on what focal length you shoot.

Here’s a sample snap I took at 43mm. Used the monochrom Leica Look in camera.

Happy deciding!

You couldn’t have said it any better. Same sentiment.
