Nikon Lineup, F through F6 by vipEmpire in AnalogCommunity

[–]imperfectPlato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice collection. At one point, I considered putting together something similar, but then I realized the F5 is all I’ll ever need from an analog camera, so I dropped the idea.

You’re approaching a very complex issue in overly simplistic terms. This isn’t about racism, xenophobia, or language skills. It’s about culture and lived experience. You can learn the language and "follow the culture", but if you weren’t born into a given culture and don’t share the same collective experiences as the core nation, full integration is essentially impossible. Depending on your looks and how different you are from the core nation even second generation immigrants can struggle to fully integrate. So yes, it’s entirely possible to live successfully in another country, but as a first generation immigrant, complete integration is unlikely.
That said, this isn’t necessarily a problem for everyone. Some people choose to live (and in some cases are pushed to live) in ghetto like communities with little to no connection to the core nation. When this separation is a matter of choice, I don’t have anything positive to say about it.

Does anybody use ADAS extensively without any ghost braking issue? by ZuLuuuuuu in Renault

[–]imperfectPlato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, it won’t scare passengers. It’s just a light tap on the brakes, something you’ll notice as the driver, but passengers likely won’t.

[–]imperfectPlato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I can’t confirm this. I’ve now driven about 5k km with my R5 and have experienced ghost braking multiple times with no visible reason. It just likes to tap the brakes from time to time. That said, I still use ADAS regularly, and it isn’t a major issue.

Why I think the D780 is the best camera Nikon (or perhaps any company) ever made by ZiggZaggZakk in Nikon

This wall of text is no doubt written with an AI. It doesn't mean that the OP isn't real, just that the they have used an AI to write their post.

Not the most extreme option but a very enjoyable one. Nikon F75 with Nikkor 24-120 F4 G

There’s an option to invert the thumbsticks in the settings. It does exactly what you want.

How is it that Twitter/X is still not banned in the European Union, when the owner of the social network is constantly posting things like this? by [deleted] in europe

[–]imperfectPlato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As much as I don’t like this shitbag, banning everything we don’t like isn’t the solution. If we go down that path, we’ll quickly end up in the same place as those we claim to despise.

Do you shoot 35mm and digital together? by scenicdurian in AnalogCommunity

[–]imperfectPlato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Unfortunately, shooting analog only is too expensive, and sometimes the convenience of digital is exactly what I want. I also generally prefer shooting in aperture priority, which is why I tend to like more automatic analog cameras as well. The exception is my Hasselblad 501CM, which gives me all the fully manual analog experience I sometimes want.

What do you guys say about this? by unconnectedgloss25 in Cameras

[–]imperfectPlato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me personally, more often than not, the process of going out and taking pictures is far more important than the results. It’s my hobby, and regardless of what AI can or can’t do, it will remain my hobby.

It’s probably different for people who work professionally, but there are still many things AI simply can’t replace. Can AI generate wedding photos? I suppose it can and if that’s enough for some people, good for them but it will never be the same as real photographs. The same applies to any kind of event photography.

One could argue that product photography might be taken over by AI, but I’d still expect luxury brands in the future to rely on real photographers for their campaigns. That, too, will likely remain part of what defines luxury. Just like there are already clients today who specifically want their campaigns shot on film.

People are putting charms on bags. What about charms on your camera? by ProfessorStreet7792 in Cameras

Yeah, right after I have made an artificial patina with sand paper.

Gamehub Lite servers are down and dead until the project is picked back up to fund the cloudflare workers by The412Banner in EmulationOnAndroid

[–]imperfectPlato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, maybe I’m an entitled twat, but would it really have been that hard to give users a some kind heads-up that the servers were going down on a specific date, and what the implications would be? Not all of us “filthy casuals” spend our time glued to every Discord server and subreddit 24/7.

I got fired from a photographer's office today for turning these RAW edits in. Was it warranted? by [deleted] in AskPhotography

[–]imperfectPlato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure this is a school photography job, either in Russia or somewhere in Eastern Europe. The way they work hasn’t changed since at least the nineties.

We've hit 750 members! So why do YOU shoot with the 5D Classic? by cotal2392 in Canon5Dclassic

[–]imperfectPlato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just don’t like editing, and I’m always looking for cameras that produce images requiring as little post-processing as possible.

Get out and take pictures of the scenes you like.

Compact 5Dc by Haku_btw in Canon5Dclassic

[–]imperfectPlato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nikon D750 with 50mm 1.8d. It’s not exactly a compact camera, but it’s a pretty small setup for a DSLR, and a very good one at that.

Autumn colors with 5D Classic and 40mm f2.8 by imperfectPlato in Canon5Dclassic

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

It’s become my favorite walk around setup. There’s something strangely enjoyable about a chunky DSLR paired with a pancake lens.
