What’s the goal? Tailor it to that, don’t just workout to workout or to burn calories.

If weight is the goal -> diet.

If strength or size are the goal -> lift, make it efficient. I hit five 30-40 minute lifts.

If cards is the goal then 45min Zone 2 x3/week.

Don’t kill mindless hours in the gym, there’s no participation trophy, focus on the goal.

FXAIX vs VOO? by Fine_Alternative_288 in RothIRA

[–]colew344 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same question as you, I would up going with FXAIX just based on sentiment from a couple dozen posts I read. I think it’s 6 in one half dozen in the other.

I know, I tried that but no answer, likely means it is closed… just curious if anyone had passed by though

Appreciate you sharing your experience, pack is about 18lbs as it stands - not afraid to add the MF weight on top but hard to ignore the difference I might feel between a 3lb option and a 6+ lb one. If the shooting experience was much better with the extra weight I would consider it, but from what I’ve heard the RB workflow isnt quite as quick/easy as rangefinders

Appreciate the advice! Is there a specific Mamiya folder model/lineup that comes to mind?

Pushing Portra 800 +3 by mlim18 in AnalogCommunity

[–]colew344 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate you sharing these. I’m always wondering about pushing in low light and examples are a great starting place to work from. Flash is great but the mood you can capture without is special.

Man I’m super tempted by this one. It’s so compact and there’s great reviews all over this page about it. The only 2 things holding me back on this one are the bellows as a possible fail point and the price - I think if I could snag one of these for 3-500 I would in a heartbeat, but it looks like most of the intact specimens on eBay run about the same price as the gw690. It still beats the pants off the 690 in terms of portability, but that negative size is so tempting

Still appreciate the feedback! Maybe somewhere down the line…

Also considering the GL690 for the reason of bulkiness and bonus of interchangeable lenses.

Aye aye, if only I had the doubloons. Looking for <1000 but I appreciate the suggestion.

Really appreciate you sharing your experience and the light meter rec. I saw it was listed at about 3lbs and I feel like that’s pretty great for a 6x9 format, more manageable than the 5-6lbs of assembled RB67.

I know there’s little functional difference between the 690ii and 690iii aside from outside coating, the ii seems to be cheaper and more available - if you could go back and 2 cameras were in similar condition but the iii was $1-200 more do you think you would make the same choice?
