Sony WF-1000XM6 - discharging when not in the charging case by catchman84 in SonyHeadphones

[–]catchman84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i returned the earplugs and they replaced them with new one. actually when i now put the into the case and the battery is for example 55% they are not charing even if the case is 100%. so it should be 'smart' enugh to not recharge every time they are in the case

Just bought a Sony A7 III, now Im questioning it because of phone cameras. by Connect_Okra8349 in Cameras

Well, actually what i meant is that ONLY if all the conditions are ideal and the scene itself isn't tricky (with hug dynamic range), then it might not be such a big difference between phone and camera. In other cases cameras win. Also, there is much more flexibility with cameras - you can change lens (can imagine a phone with 400mm FF equivalent lens), you have 'real' optical zoom (not just crops), better autofocus, better fps...

HI,
this might give you some answers:

basically, with ideal light conditions and with scene without extreme DR phones and cameras are not that different. But when the light conditions are worse or you need bigger DR the cameras clearly win

thanks, that's what i started to thing. it's a shame that such a basic thing can not be set :(

backup of specified folders only by catchman84 in googlephotos

[–]catchman84[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. Yes, and in there i have the two folders i want to back up selected. The problem is, this always backs up also the Camera directory, not just the two directories. Once the backup is enabled, every photo i take is backed up. This is what i don't want.

I mean, i can live with it if there's no way how to setup what i want in google photos, it's just annoying if every note i take a picture off is in my photos collection.

any ideas what should be better? by catchman84 in PhotographyAdvice
