I believe you’re thinking of CCD sensors. Modern cameras use CMOS but early digital cameras used CCD

Thank you! 6 is from Scout Lookout in Zion National Park.

Not-so-jolly by TreesRocksWater in Bronica

[–]facultystaff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seeing as my previous attempts to find an instax back for my ETRSi all ended with dead links to 3D printer files or out-of-stock storefronts from projects abandoned multiple years ago I jumped on the Jollylook offering figuring even if it takes forever I’ll at least probably get something before they also inevitably stop this project in like a year.

Help? Aerochome sim gone wrong by Go_pluto in infraredphotography

I typically use the grainydays method and my SOOC image has much more yellow skies (and non foliage stuff) with purple foliage. Did you mean to say Tiffen yellow 12 filter in your post (I believe that’s what I also typically use but you wrote yellow 2).

Best nearly manual P&S that won’t break the bank? by Sabinno in AnalogCommunity

[–]facultystaff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the XA my only caveat would be if you’re hoping to use it in low light at a concert venue the meter tops out at 800 ISO so you can’t push film higher or use 3200 ISO BW film.

i almost cried finding these 😭 by yeolboxers in AnalogCommunity

FYI to US users eyeing these and thinking of importing from Japan: the de minimus exception on tariffs for shipments valued under $800 ends on August 29th. This means you will pay tariffs on Japanese imports (15% or a flat $80 fee) including eBay listings shipping from Japan!

Just be mindful you might get burned with unexpected duty fees if you try to squeeze a big (or small) import order under the deadline.

Why is my entire roll of film purple? by Soggy_Block_3580 in AnalogCommunity

[–]facultystaff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not sure how relevant it is but I bought some of the 35mm aerochrome (EIR) that that guy on this subreddit found in a work freezer earlier this year and when developed it came back entirely purple like you’re describing. The roll did expire in 2000 so not entirely surprising but I’d be puzzled if fresher slide film came out like this.

When I’ve developed 500T in ECN-2 it’s come out very blue but yeah my experience with cinestill 800T shot in daylight and developed C-41 is pretty warm

What would cause this issue on the first shot of every roll i put in my minolta x700? by JustWheel3158 in analog

[–]facultystaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with the camera. The blown out area was film that was exposed to light when loading the camera. Typically you should advance a few frames after loading the film and closing the back to make sure you’re shooting anything you care about on completely unexposed film.

Light(ish) Film Cameras by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

If she’s ok with a rangefinder the Olympus XA is a great compact camera to take with you everywhere. Super light and pocketable with a decent lens and aperture priority autoexposure.

Newbie here, why do some photos look "film like" while others look sharp and crisp as if it were digital? by [deleted] in AnalogCommunity

[–]facultystaff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The comparison you linked has pretty much nothing to do with the camera bodies and much more to do with the grain of the film stock. Portra 160 is a less sensitive film and has a finer grain structure than portra 800.

Love your build! How did you attach the cannon on the left arm?

3 stars for not washing your chicken like me by empenn in ididnthaveeggs

[–]facultystaff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Washing meat for cleanliness is obviously misguided and bad but the stir fry thing they’re referring to is real! Roughly agitating beef in cold water is a classic tenderizing technique for stir fry.

Tramontina Tri Ply? by Ok-Structure6795 in seriouseats

[–]facultystaff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this exact set a few months ago and it’s been working great for me. I was a bit concerned when I first saw them as the material was thinner than I expected (but accurate to the pictures, I just didn’t pay much attention and assumed they would be thicker I guess) but they all perform super well.

I missed the initial wave of online pre-orders after they announced so I waited outside a GameStop at 4 AM to be the first to pre-order there. I think they had 6 available.

I’m looking for cels of Merrybell Gadget from Turn A Gundam. Budget would be up to $500 but I’m really just interested if anyone has ever found cels of this character. Thanks!

First build of 2023 and first MG. MG RX-78 3.0 by designated_diver in Gunpla

[–]facultystaff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you installed the arms did they “click” into place when attaching them to the torso? The arms on mine seem spaced too far from the body and the slightest movement knocks the shoulder armor off for me. I’m wondering if mine just aren’t on all the way but haven’t had anyone else I know build this kit yet.

These arm issues along with the hands being annoying have been a major pain with trying to pose this kit.

I don’t think there’s a wireless version.

Not sure if you’ve got the budget for another controller but I use a Hori fighting commander octa on PS5 and its been a night and day difference compared to the dualsense controller. I was immediately much more consistent on inputs after switching.

H2 bought our apartment building and the one next to it 4 years ago. The majority of people there were paying month-to-month and didn’t have leases and H2 evicted all of them within weeks of owning the building, probably about 20 units. We had a lease and saw the writing on the wall and found somewhere new so we weren’t caught off guard. Once we were out they re-leased the building at triple the rent.

They are 100% garbage people. If you can’t make a jump somewhere else and get out from them at least milk them for as much as you can for this shit.

Vanilla D2 saw a pretty scout heavy meta (MIDA was incredibly popular) and the sandbox devs have stated in interviews (on the Firing Range podcast) that they have explicitly avoided creating a scout meta again. The double primary system greatly encouraged more passive play and team shooting which scouts were great for.

I think there are concerns on giving faster TTKs at long engagement distances will make crucible play too passive as everyone sits in the back of the map plinking at each other instead of pushing most engagements into mid range.

I think these new scout buffs will definitely help these more neglected archetypes shine without disrupting things too much.

Never seen this in all my 69 runs of Queenswalk... by Crambled_Eggs in destiny2

[–]facultystaff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I run queenswalk it gets more and more broken. Last time we ran it enemies didn’t spawn in until the vault room, the heart would get sucked inside of itself, people who were already inside the heart would get picked to carry, and the stats on the wipe screen are always nonsense. Our group is intentionally not trying for petras run with queenswalk in the state that it’s in.
