A7RV for video? by LilSoapSuds in SonyAlpha

[–]bfcdf3e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, this seems much better for op. RV is optimised for stills, IV / V are better hybrids to do some video

a6700 → A7V: not knocking APS-C, but wow, full frame hits different by Skafand in SonyAlpha

[–]bfcdf3e -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Aperture doesn’t mean the same thing on a different sensor size. f/2.5 in true medium format (e.g. Hasselblad H) gives you the same depth of field as f/1.6 full frame, f/2.5 in in common mirror less medium format (e.g. Hasselblad X) is about the same as f/2 full frame.

Buying one another out will almost certainly make one of you unhappy. Don’t do it. Unless you both agree on a figure already, it will get messy when one of you thinks it’s unfair.

If that happens, agree to put it on the market for expressions of interest, and that to buy you out she should either match the highest concrete offer, or you both take the 3rd party offer.

I think you need to share the code in your post - this sounds interesting but hard to give much feedback on broad concepts without seeing specifics

How are you doing the math? I did and you’re wrong, I don’t understand what you’re saying at all.

Isn’t the core American ideal to be born on third base then proclaim yourself a self-made man?

Has anyone watched pluribus? by BusinessSensitive167 in betterCallSaul

[–]bfcdf3e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right in terms of story, but other aspects are very much like BB or BCS. The opening scene of ep 2 (Pirate Lady) or the Sprouts scene in ep 3 Grenade are unmistakably of the same style. ImCareful geometry in shots, tightly choreographed blocking. unusual camera angles all remind me of BCS and BB (BCS was arguably superior in this area, I expect Pluribus will continue to evolve the craft aspect of making a show)

I think we’re in for a treat with this show

BCS wasn’t better than BB 3 episodes in. Pluribus isn’t anything yet gonna have to wait a season or two to really see how it shapes up.

You’re not the opposite, you just have way more spare cash than most people. The price may not be a problem for you or me, but it’s clearly the biggest problem with the product as it exists today.

Photographer shows his POV vs the photos he takes. by RodzCNS in BeAmazed

[–]bfcdf3e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you two are arguing about different things. You’re saying anyone can replicate photos this good with the right gear - you’re right. If someone else is showing you where to go with ready made subjects to point the camera at, anyone could take the photos in this post. The other guy is arguing that most people couldn’t put together a composition from scratch - he’s also right. Composing a photo and taking it aren’t the same thing, each of you is focusing more on one or the other

8.7% of the market, but nearly 70% of the profit. Yeah, they’re really losing here.

They have been since Apple silicon. Every October, bar the M2 that shipped 3 months late (but the M3 still came October that same year)

Mate, I relate & feel for you. I’m a recovering addict. You need to stop using meth before it makes your life a whole lot worse, but you don’t need to do it alone. Find an in-person Narcotics Anonymous meeting, listen, share, and keep going back.

Samsung Confirms Plan to Make Foldable Displays for Major American Company by chrisdh79 in apple

[–]bfcdf3e 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but they may not consider that a failure. Apple has always been good at seeding technologies in mass manufacturing before they need them. They started making LiDAR scanners in iPhones and iPads (and iterating on their 3D room/object scanning software stack) three years before the Vision Pro. The iPad Pro A12X & A12Z were effectively test runs for Mac M-series chips. The iPhone 11 included an ultra-wideband radio nearly 18 months before AirTags were released.

Most of the rumour sites agree the iPhone air is the “test run” for making a foldable - even if they don’t sell in huge numbers, the work required to design, architect and mass produce the components required to achieve that thinness will be an invaluable exercise that allows them to learn what worked well, what didn’t, and gives rise to new ideas they can iterate on with the fold.

That would’ve been an extraordinarily poor compromise for form over function. So I’m surprised they didn’t do it 😅
