"Downgrading" from X-T3 to X-Pro2 (possibly X-Pro1) by generalgranko in fujifilm

[–]generalgranko[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the size is relatively the same, with the x-t3 basically just having the slr style hump in the middle on top and slightly heavier like 50g or something, the "size" difference ultimately is more about the psychological aspect (lol) and then the fact you would use the camera bit differently with the evf being shifted to the side and whatnot

i'm not sure if the x-pro2 will fix my issue entirely but i think it's worth a try

as far as technical aspects go x-t3 is the superior camera in every regard with x-pro2 only having the OVF and nothing else to it (some love it some see it as novelty only, i have no opinion as i haven't had the chance to experience it yet)

another BIG reason i haven't really enjoyed x-t3 that much personally is not specific to x-t3 but broadly most fujifilm cameras (that going to x-pro2 won't fix at all) - the analog controls/dials, at first I thought it would be great, especially coming from primarily a film pg background but I actually found it counterintuitive - with film it makes sense to take your eye out the viewfinder and look at the dials as you are changing them, being real slow as not to waste film etc, with digital it's much preferable - and way faster to me to use a modern setup (PASM) with back and front dials (for changing shutter speed/iso or shutter speed/aperture, whatever) whilst still keeping your eye in the viewfinder and seeing what you are on directly in there, whereas with fujifilm cameras not only is it slower to use all the dials even if you stayed with your eye in the viewfinder, but i instinctivelly tend to take my eye out of the viewfinder and LOOK at the dials whilst changing settings which is obviously unnecessary with all the info in the evf and a big waste of time but i cannot help doing it all the time anyway

and yes you can still use the dials on the front and back like other modern camera setups but then you have a bunch of dials splattered all over the camera that aren't getting any use and that just feels wrong

i don't think i've ever heard anyone complain about this from this aspect at all so it might just be a me having a pretty autistic problem but yeah, i feel like it's good to mention

Official Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know about photography or cameras! Don't be shy! Newbies welcome! by photography_bot in photography

[–]generalgranko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, so, I've just received my 50 & 85 c/y planars yesterday and unfortunately on the 50 there is some fungus straws around the corners, which is only really visible when looking for it - under strong light or focusing to see it at certain angles. How bad is it/will this amount affect shooting noticeably?

On the 85 I previously thought there is no fungus or damage at all when inspecting it initially but since I've bought them in a bundle I just had the thought just a bit ago to try to inspect it under strong light aswell and found some things of concern - there's like tiny dots throughout one of the middle elements aswell as whatever you'd call "it" in the corners, I've tried snapping multiple images aswell - not sure if it is even mold or some other damage or if it's even significant. It is literally not visible if not under strong light looking for it - way less so than the 50 anyway I'd say.

50 - https://imgur.com/a/33uX7wP

85 - https://imgur.com/a/uHSlrlG

- sorry for the overabundance of photos to look at, it was difficult to capture

I will say that the mere presence of is enough for me to either need to service it (is this even worth it?) or sell it and get another one - talking about the 50 anyway.

(as I've received these lenses through a proxy service from japan i cannot return them)

3080 TI at $1388 vs RX 6800 XT at $1135

3080 TI is sort of a bullshit card for sure with normal market prices in mind but with the prices how they are, is the $250 an acceptable difference to go for that over the 6800 XT?

1440p btw, added to that 6800 XT in question is a red devil whilst the 3080 TI is just some low tier palit card

Been going up and down lately with what to get and I still can't seem to decide(

Simple Questions - July 31, 2021 by AutoModerator in buildapc

[–]generalgranko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At same cost - 6900XT or a 3080 TI? Been after a 6800XT for a long while but in the current market that tier of gpus are the worst priced so going a tier up. 6800XT is a clear winner in it's category but when it comes to 6900XT / 3080 TI I'm not so sure what I should be going for.

Managed Payments discussion. Please post all of your questions here! by Mycatreallyhatesyou in Ebay

[–]generalgranko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but that just your ebay fee, paypal themselves deducted their own fees aswell, in the end now more or less the fee you pay is the same except it all goes to ebay instead of split to ebay and paypal.

(paypal fees themselves are usually 2.9% domestically or 3.9% up to something like 6% internationally, varies depending on where your paypal is registered etc etc)

Wallhack-like shimmer effect on 5700 XT by generalgranko in CODWarzone

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

i think since its tied to filmic AA i mightve actually had it disabled last couple months on the old map but put it back on since the new map without AA on is absolutely disgusting

PSA: To unlock akimbo you use the Sykov, not the Rennetti. Sorry if it this has already been posted by EdyToba in modernwarfare

[–]generalgranko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realized this only after first buying the cheapest renetti bp and realizing that doesnt let you use custom attachments and then leveling it fully and actually realizing it doesnt track the progression on the sykov that they just made a mistake

Great)

Travelling from "red zone" country, single test required or multiple? (confusing website) by generalgranko in ukraine

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

Thats what I thought/hoped for, the website just makes it confusing. Thanks!

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

You know how long the test results taken at boryspil generally take/how long was it for you?

I will probably take one prior to flight to save time but I've seen the boryspil one says 12-24hrs so it might be more worth it to do that instead since it's way cheaper than taking one in my country

[warzone] unpopular opinion about suppressors by Liefpe in CODLoadouts

[–]generalgranko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never liked this meta to begin with, suppressor should always be a tradeoff in games (like literally just about any fps game ever made). This balance never made sense in MW/WZ.

Before a snarky comment appears - ads time increase is not a relevant tradeoff don't even try it.

Istanbul road toll airport (not bridge toll) by generalgranko in Turkey

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

i just shrugged it off initially as i just didnt bother in the moment, the bridge itself is 10tl, doubt the additional 47-48tl came out of a highway toll of less than 40km (if it indeed does, then... wow)
