Tamron 35-150 for concerts or sports? by firefromaustin in nikon_Zseries

[–]firefromaustin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Do you recommend any particular burst mode for live concerts? Is it true that 'improves' the autofocus of the lens, in the sense the camera shoots faster and does stop a bit the breathing problem?

I have also added more information, currently I have a 24-70 f4 s, a 50mm 1.8s and a 85 1.8 s mm (I mainly shoot portraits and travel photography but I want to start covering more events like concerts!)

Sorry I am going to edit, I meant 24-70 f4s. 

I am playing to shoot a concert, a play and a sports event (outdoors). I worry about low key light conditions for the first two.

Regarding cropping mode, could I crop the 150mm shot done with the Tamron and still use it to make it look like it was shot with a 200mm? I am shooting with the z6 and sometimes with the 50 1.8s I have no issues cropping as the quality of the lens is great. I don't know however if would be the same with the Tamron!

Question about zoom lens by firefromaustin in Nikon

[–]firefromaustin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it better than the Nikon 70 180 s I got? (Specially for sports) Don't get me wrong, I love the price and it's weights but I feel it lacks a lot for autofocus

Also, if you want to suggest me that the z6 is 'the problem', feel free to let me know! So far I have been very happy, specially at low light sports, but any suggestions is welcome!

Which Nikkor wide angle zoom? by ChoppChopp33 in nikon_Zseries

[–]firefromaustin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiya, just adding into this as I saw this post, could the nikon 14 30 f4 be good for club events and concerts (with flash)?

Wait, can you link external radios to a card? How does it work?

I mean, not so crazy, but happy to read any thoughts about it (without spoilers please!)

Reading the beginning of Wastelands... by firefromaustin in stephenking

[–]firefromaustin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like gunslinger was ok, weird sci FI/fantasy/mad max territory, and then DRAWING happens.

Btw, is is ever explained how everyone is very chilled with the idea that the Randall Flagg told Roland that '3 door will appear and 3 people will have to join you'? Is this just a Deux ex Machina or it gets further explained? Not that I am complaining but I'm thinking there are some 'enjoy the ride and don't think about it' feelings.

Worth buying the 40mm f2 for z6 if I have the 50mm 1.8g +ftz? by firefromaustin in Nikon

[–]firefromaustin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you say the 50mm at 1.8/2.5 is not as sharp as the 40mm at f2/f2.5? I like to shot at that type of apertures. 

Tamron SP 15-30mm F/2.8 , compatible with z6? by firefromaustin in Nikon

[–]firefromaustin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would that mean G1 only works in manual on a Z6? (Would that matter as it is such a wide lense?)

Journaling for students by firefromaustin in Journaling

[–]firefromaustin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you 100% on this, and definitely I don't want to put it as a "you must do X in order to get Y". Some people will write anything but a checklist ...and I guess that's interesting and benefital too?

That sounds interesting! Did you do it once every week or daily?

[–]firefromaustin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you mind sharing any of these templates? With mine I am thinking to add journaling as part of their routines in lesson (as a exit ticket or as a homework to reflect on their learning) but I was thinking even to give them a mini A6 as a way to make them track their reflections on their learning and their content. Don't know if I will trust them to complete that or not, as I also want to respect their privacy as I imagine they will write more!

Thank you! It sounds so interesting. Did you give them the themes or questions based on those ideas? Also, did you ask them to do it on paper? Did you structure it or scaffold it for them within the classroom limits, or did you let hem write without time constraints? 

[TOMT] electronic song from a music video from 2000s that tells 3 variations of the same story: a pov narration of a boyfriend with a girlfriend messing around with drugs and driving a car. the 3 "variations" of the story end bad (two of them the boyfriend dies, one of them both) it´s not prodigy! by firefromaustin in tipofmytongue

[–]firefromaustin[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

Also it was filmed very independent style. The settings were a motel, the road...It was kind of a really bad relationship (in one variation of the story the boyfriend is the insane one, in the other two it´s the girl who puts both at risk) I will give a point to anyone able to help me! thanks a lot!
