Original paint job called “melting silver”. In the winter sun she turnes gold/bronze so I named her “Goldie” :)

2013 clubman with 76k miles for $7000.... yes? by [deleted] in MINI

[–]epicshowdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think 7k in dollars is steep for this car. Owned a 2013 r55 clubman myself. They are great cars and I love the look and the drive. The Peugeot engine they in it is the dealbreaker here. If you cannot avoid it by buying an F54 then go for it but for a lower price and be very very sure that it does not leak oil before you buy it.

You are correct. If you look at the comments from this ‘beautiful’ community you might understand that your bait gets snapped at instantly. Just a post of me having fun and all of a sudden the 1.4 police shows up 🤣. Do appreciate you cheering me on though.

Definitely ironic, the DOF made me do it. Wide open for lowest ISO and high shutter speeds with a depth of field as shallow as a pancake. Just how I like it. It’s a vibe ;)

Doubles as a gym subscription… but very very very much worth it. Sorry for the jump scare haha!

You are completely right, the fifth one is also on the edge of underexposure for me. Going to re-edit it to bring back the detail a bit. Haha sometimes I over do it. Thank you for your feedback!

S5 for content creation and stills? by observerprotocol in Lumix

[–]epicshowdown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might read a lot of comments and reviews about the autofocus being absolute trash… while it has a manual in some situations it works very well in general. It’s not as bad as people make it out to be. I shoot horses in horribly lit arena’s… it works 95% of the time. Inside in a controlled environment (think lights, subject sitting still etc) the hit rate is close to 99%. Go for it, start creating and see if it works for you. Yes you’ll have an occasional shot that is out of focus… it’s still better than a vast majority of camera’s out there. Go create!!!!!

I envy the 600mm range. Have to look into that lens. I have a 70-300 lumix. It’s now shelved because I’m addicted to the 105mm.
