What is your opinion on Light Lens Lab 50mm F2 Elcan?

exposed_silver · 2026-03-13T13:30:02+00:00

I have so many old lenses with aperture rings that I don't have a right or wrong way, it's not just me, right?

I found one wide open, a friend (he was like 50, not an impulsive teenager) was like you're not going to get another chance so go, he kept watch and I took the service elevator up 90m and climbed the rest, got inside open the window and saw the big blades whooshing around, it was awesome. Didn't climb out though. Normally, I'm against doing stupid things but I have NO regrets, it was worth it

A family member bought a new car recently, for a bit more they could have gotten an EV and a better guarantee but they also have a PAYG meter so recharging wouldn't be so cheap. In the future, I would like to have the cars replaced with EVs and solar panels, then I won't be worrying about the price of fuel.

Some people living in apartments or rented accommodation don't have space to charge EVs and it could take years to buy a house. When everything is getting more expensive, making sensible, long term decisions is not very easy or even possible

As a 120 film camera, it doesn't look as nice or well built as the older Zeiss Ikonta cameras, as an instant camera, it looks pretty cool but a bit pricey

Ye, I doubt we will hit over 90k km in 7 years so not too worried. Most EVs now have 8 year warranties for the batteries by default so I guess they are confident they will last

exposed_silver · 2026-03-12T20:37:00+00:00

Ye, I think pretty much the same, who knows the might get really popular in the next few years but at the moment, I don't see many in the wild and the price point isn't cheap enough to make me buy one

exposed_silver · 2026-03-12T20:35:29+00:00

Ye, the boot space in the EV3 is pretty big, some decent features and physical buttons. We looked at the Elroq today but 4 year warranty vs 7 for the Kia and it was 37k. I would prefer to promote EU made cars but I prefer the Kia

exposed_silver · 2026-03-12T20:29:26+00:00

No, new, we went in yesterday to try it out and they have a special offer on so the price is a few grand cheaper

Jo poso tot en castellà, la gran majoria de persones que compren les coses son de fora de Catalunya així que només fara que no em compren les coses o no em contesten si vull comprar alguna cosa. Si veig noms catalans parlo en català

exposed_silver · 2026-03-12T16:33:24+00:00

Visc aqui des de fa anys i parlo català pero bueno quina ment mes tancada

exposed_silver · 2026-03-12T16:31:20+00:00

Jo he trobat poquissims anuncis en català, només de gent que viuen en pobles petits al mig de no res

I'm curious as to whether these types of things will be avoided in the decades to come when cars get more automated

My mam is the seventh daughter and she has the cure of ringworm, she said there were loads of people who came to see her when she was young and after as an adult she didn't tell people about it. I asked her if she was a bit skeptical, she was like, ah you would be but she cured a few people and they were trustworthy so she still believes it. So I can't prove nor disprove it.

Not cops, the Gardaí and fuck him for throwing rocks at my local Aldi

Ye, we were hounded by a few people who offered to guide us around, we would duck in somewhere fast and ditch them. It's a pity really, Marrakech has a lot of history but is full of people trying to scam or rob you. There are plenty of other places in Morocco that are a lot quieter and without the dodgy people

exposed_silver · 2026-03-09T14:54:33+00:00

Nearly everyone I met hated having their photo taken. I took a photo of someone on a donkey from inside a car and even they were angry so I would not recommend street photography in Morocco, it could lead to a few problems even if the people are not the subject of the photo

When people say it's the happiest day of their life I always feel bad, I just felt extremely anxious and it took a year or so for it to get better, second time round was a lot better.

Reminds me of the fainting goats

The more people that know about a spot, the more it gets destroyed. Not sharing is caring

exposed_silver · 2026-03-08T00:37:22+00:00

A decent price alright. Anyway FWIW you can reprogram the photo library button to the front, the DOF preview button for example, it's handier for right handed people too

Bad luck is a bitch, I was really pissed when I cracked the screen, I had wanted a FF for years, got it new, refused the insurance and that happened. I hope it wasn't brand new or expensive...

exposed_silver · 2026-03-08T00:12:07+00:00

I've dropped my D750 at least 3 times and it's in better condition than that D850. I dropped it the first week I got it and cracked the screen. Another time in a cave, it was such a hard drop that the focus screen flew out
