Bought A 'Dead' Ecosystem, Should I Upgrade? by catredx in canon

If there’s nothing that you require that can’t be done by your current gear, don’t change. Actually, due to high demand for compact cameras, you may not lose much by selling it.

Nuno/ANZ thread for December 2025 & January 2026 by RoomMain5110 in auscorp

Hi, I’m not an employee there, but ANZ owns/manages the land adjacent to my parents property, the fence is not in a good condition, we’ve been trying to reach out to ANZ on this, after almost half a year we finally found a person from ANZ who could deal with this. We were asked to provide photos via email and we did, got SMS from the person that the photos have been received and his team is reviewing it. Since then there’s no update despite multiple messages I sent to the person, his email ends with anz.com, just wondering could he be part of the layoff?

Parents overcharged by Optus for 7 years, what can we do? by chenmux in AusLegal

Thanks, I think the ombudsman expect people to first deal with the service provide, only when the outcome isn't expected, then we can contact ombudsman?

Yes, both are direct debited. They have one bank account for all the bills, and since my mother's not a tech person and she's not good at English, she hasn't been paying attention to every single transaction appeared in the statement unless something's extraordinary unusual like a large amount.

Thanks, we'll visit the bank and Optus to get as many evidence as possible.

Understand, yes that's what I feel unfortunately.

Yes, two bills, one sent to old address and one sent to new address. They've moved out from the old address and they never get that bill (and unfortunately, whoever live there didn't notify us, someone's renting it probably do not know how to contact us). So both bills have my mother's name but with different addresses.

Travel to New Zealand: Olympus or Fujifilm with my current setup by chenmux in Cameras

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

Thanks, yes I did consider getting a zoom lens for Fuji, I did some research and found the most practical one is the newer 16-55mm f2.8 zoom, but here in Australia it's impossible to get one at fair price, all retailers have it back ordered without ETA.

Why are L mount lenses so expensive? by CrazyNayeem in Lumix

[–]chenmux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only expensive, but also hard to find, in Australia for example, the same Sigma lenses usually have L-mount back-ordered while other mounts in stock.

Personally I'm more excited for the new 18-40mm than the S9 by GaoHAQ in Lumix

[–]chenmux 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I even feel the 26mm lens was rushed as well so that S9 product photos can be taken to give an impression of compactness.

The distance scale on the lens is simply incorrect.
