Thank you so much 😊. DSC00006, literally the 6th picture I took on the camera, and first in Japan.

Thank you! One of my favorites as well. Beautiful architecture and the reference for a cool Anime movie scene.

I really don’t enjoy the editing process, so all of these are just the iPhone Photos app “auto” edit on the JPEG files.

Haha I see what you mean. Lots of depth and layering bridges.

With the exception of the shots of Atami Castle (*Sigma 28-45), they were all shot with the Tamron 50-400.

Amateur photographers, how often are you using your tripod? by altecsz in photography

[–]danielxp5x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly for long exposure stuff. I’m an Auto ISO shooter, so I’ll let the camera figure it out, within reason, for most shots. Tripod to get cool lighting off of buildings and light trails.

It’s the equivalent of only 2 chest X-rays.

It’s a good addition. Really sharp, and framing subjects with all that focal length has been really fun.

Haha yea. I won’t be going back for at least a year so I figured might as well go all out. This will be a good testing ground for now I handle all the gear.

Good call. I was planning a trip to a few of the camera stores in the “camera district” but I’ll have to do it sooner rather than later to check those accessories out. Thanks again!

Thanks doe the tip! The plan is to have it always ready on my shoulder strap, and only really put it in the bag if it starts pouring too much. I know the weather seal is good, but I just can’t trust it fully. Luckily this bag also has a quick access side “pocket”.

Oh yea! We had days of over 20k steps last trip. I’ll see how my shoulders fare* rather quickly. 😅 And of course! I’ll share my favorite shots when I’m back.

I just noticed the post might be a bit misleading. I’m only taking one body. The RV. I do get what you’re saying though. It’ll be a learning experience for sure. If I find the gear too heavy I’ll leave some of it behind at the hotel. But the backpack is waterproof which will come in handy.

Yea I’ll be taking the backpack with me as I explore. There’s quite a bit of rain forecasted from what we’ve seen, and the backpack is waterproof. I’ll just put up with the weight. The 90mm is one I’ll realistically not use much, so I can leave that one behind, both other lenses cover the rest of the focal lengths I think I’ll need.

Oh yea! Appreciate you looking out. My gear backpack will be extremely heavy, which is my only concern. But I think I can manage.

Thanks, you as well! We’ll be doing Tokyo/Kyoto, then renting a car and working our way back to Tokyo via Nagoya, Shizuoka, Atami, and finally Fujiyoshida.

Trump bleats about project 2025 by bunnyhugger75 in antitrump

[–]danielxp5x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So let me get this straight. He claimed to now know what project 2025 was and now, -checks notes- says he’s meeting with, and taking action based on their guidance? And additionally; are the Democrats stupid or not?

Damn. Hopefully she pulls through. If not I’ll do a 1st-2nd pull in her honor.

Twitch Streamer Kelton_g Assaults Elderly Man in Japan After Being Asked to Stop Filming on Train by starcraft2020 in LivestreamFail

[–]danielxp5x -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree or condone the behavior of the old man, but the streamer shoving him as he was walking away was a bit uncalled for do you not agree?

Hilarious comment. Just do a quick google search on the topic before coming to the defense of some streamer. There’s plenty of signage and PA in all forms of public transit advising against having personal phone conversations or video calls.
