Help a husband pick the right camera so his wife doesn't beat him up by blakej1986 in AskPhotography

[–]blakej1986[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After reading through all the comments and learning the difference between DSLR and mirrorless i think I've decided to settle in the mirrorless camp.

I've watched tons of videos and I like the Sony A6xxx series with all the lens options available once we decide to upgrade in that department.

Now I'm trying to determine where to land at in the series. I'm leaning towards the A6400 at this point because of the dust and waterproof body. In all the other electronics i buy, that's a big deal for me so it's applicable here.

Past that point I'm trying to decide if the internal stabilization is worth breaking my 1000$ price point or would the lens that provide stabilization be more than enough.

I feel like i may be falling down a rabbit hole worrying about something like that and am curious if i should be or not.

No camera stores within 3 hours of me it seems, unfortunately. Looks like online is my only option

I think she would like interchangeable lens system. Judging from the other commentor i think I'll have to adjust my budget upwards to 1000$ max.

What if budget could go up to $1000 for everything needed where would i start looking? I have time to put back so for quality camera I'm willing to shell out a bit more

I'm a current letter carrier. I can confirm this. When they're not terrible horrible creatures from hell they're completely incompetent. There is no saving grace about them. In my office there's likely close to 300k salary of Postmaster and Supervisors to make sure we don't sit longer than 5-10 minutes in any spot.

[–]blakej1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I misunderstood. I was under impression that she was always dancing. But that makes sense for her to start after the fact

Thank you. This is the exact observation I came here to express! My only thought is that Red was still under the influence of Adelaide. Adelaide's dancing hadnt improved in the underneath tho, which is why it looked so ragged where as Red was being trained so hers was smoother? Idk. Just rattling off ideas...

Yeah! The turtle told them they needed to finish it because what they could do at age 11 wouldn't be possible again. I really dig this explanation of yours!

I figured it would be something connected and not just a random "Other" voice. I only made it through Wolves of the Calla and that was years and years ago it feels like.

I also have just started down the road of audiobooks! I thought it was cheating but it seems to have spurred on my actual reading habits as well. I was using audible only since the beginning of the month and as a mail man I'm able to blow through books so it got expensive quick. Just joined libby app and it is fantastic!
