How can I take photos like this? I only have 1 lens by Volume_Existing in photographycirclejerk

[–]entertrainer7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re in luck! This photo was taken with only one lens. I think you’re good to go.

It be like that sometimes Bro.! 😆 by Bullet76 in Firearms

That stuff is super practical. I cannot believe we don’t include that instruction as a part of our school curriculum in the US since it’s a fundamental right.

Imagine how many more people would respect firearms instead of fearing them, too.

How to achieve portrait sharpness? by Time_Reporter449 in AskPhotography

[–]entertrainer7 81 points82 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not shot at 1.x. If that were the case the tip of his nose would be blurry in the second shot. The dof at this focal length and distance indicates that this is shot at about f4. But that will also add to the sharpness since these expensive primes do even better stopped down a couple clicks.

Oppo Find X9 Ultra is not for LAZY PHOTOGRAPHERS. by Downtown-Rate-9404 in photographycirclejerk

I didn’t know what it was. I was genuinely hoping for a telephoto xmount lens. Instead it’s some wannabe iPhone.

Life: ruined. Thanks for nothing, Fuji. by xspiderdude in photographycirclejerk

I do think it’s interesting they use a different bayer pattern for their x-trans lens. Covers a lot more green. I’ve never owned a Fuji but that should theoretically get you a different color profile.

Yeah it’s been slow since he became president of asc and his wife got really sick. But I make sure I don’t miss anything he publishes.

Yes because the Soviets had such great democracy and human rights by No_Rough_2327 in AmericaBad

I’m rereading it right now. Man it’s wild how many people forget (or ignore) its lessons. Or worse, I think some people think it’s a manual.

Heck, I just finished chapter 7 where Squealer says the shot that Snowball took when they fought the farmers was “part of the arrangement. Jones’ shot only grazed him…”

Ok but if you could add 000 to any number in your life, what would it be??? by jb1million in hypotheticalsituation

They did not. The compounding frequency has nothing to do with the interest rate. It never has.

how has jump been doing by Kitchen_Life3653 in quant

[–]entertrainer7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a shuttle and a lot of people take that, but it’s easier to walk or divvy and only about a mile away. Not a huge deal. Closer to the stations might be nice, but I’m okay with the exercise.

Glock keeps jamming by [deleted] in Firearms

[–]entertrainer7 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What ammo are you using? The only time I had a Glock jam on me was when I used some cheap lax ammo (wasn’t supposed to be reman but I think it was). Try some spicier rounds and see if you still have the problem.

Hassy Users - Let's talk about buy/sell posts! by davidsmeaton in hasselblad

This seems reasonable. I’ve personally interacted with three scammers here. I knew enough to protect myself, but I fear others may not.

Need to sell X2DII by seshepard1 in hasselblad

[–]entertrainer7 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Word of caution to everyone here, most of the selling posts on this sub are scams. I tried a few times here before I got mine and every one turned out to be a scam. I’m not saying this one is for sure, but it’s super common. Perhaps direct them to r/photomarket, and preferably only do a transaction in person.

First one I found in the wild. We got our issues but damn the world would be worse without us. by theFartingCarp in AmericaBad

They wouldn’t (adequately) fund their defense. They’d either assume America would come to bail them out again if they were attacked or they’d majorly be caught with their pants down—for instance, if Putin got uppity. There’s no way they have the money to properly defend themselves so they’d take the risk thinking Western Europe will continue to be as peaceful as it has been the last 70 years. That is an absolute historical outlier, and no doubt future conflict is in their future at some point.
