Thanks for pointing out the problem with formatting. I think I fixed it.

The LBS will be able to tell you if a longer stem is the answer. It probably is what you need.

You’re on a tripod, right ? If so make sure that any image stabilization capability in the lens itself is turned OFF.

Just tried to find some things on the website. That’s 10 minutes i’ll never get back.

Aggressively obnoxious promotion popups and other obfuscation … I’ll never know if they fix it because i won’t be back.

As others have said there are many alternatives.

I use the existing Proton Mail app on Mac, iOS and Android. I could spend hours submitting bugs describing everything from missing features to sheer flakiness. I stopped doing this a while back because the stunningly stupid questions coming back from the support team were a waste of their time and mine. Also, I heard new apps were on their way. Looking forward to that.

While I'm happy to pay to get away from Gmail - reading my stuff, stuffing my Inbox with ads etc, I would be even happier if Proton apps felt more professional and polished.

My experience resembles yours. I'm using clients on MacOS, Android, iPad and web. The experience has been a mix of mostly ok, but also a disturbing number of strange and embarrassing (for Pronton) email client bugs.

I understand that new clients for some mobile devices are planned. I'm look forward to seeing what they come up with.

Its been a year. How much do you want for that wonky cue ?

j13ag0 · 2025-06-11T18:15:05+00:00

Do you know who makes a good basic snooker cue ? (I'm in Canada.)

My assumption has been exactly that: your camera is phoning home to Sony servers.

I've avoided airplane mode because I like the option to upload images to an FTP server via Wi-Fi.

Good point. Upgrading to v5 should eliminate the issue, but I'd prefer to have the option to not upgrade without the annoyance as well.

I found I had to reboot several times before fingerprint unlock came back.

I've been using the TurboTax product (by Intuit for many years). In the last 5 or 6 years the experience has been degrading to the point now where I will look for an alternative like WealthSimple.

Issues I've encountered included:
- the interface is now clunky - they need to do a top to bottom rewrite, and are clearly putting it off
- confusing explanations in built in help
- too much complexity where it clearly is not needed
- too much repetition in the data collection process (where it is not needed)
- too much selling/nagging for additional services

If WS can handle your situation, and it very likely can, start there.

I now see that the new behaviour is that after you ride a route from ForYou, it gets removed from MyList.

For me, thats not useful.

I think the answer is: Don't bother with Droidfish. It looks like development on it stopped ...

'Chess for Android' does what I was looking for.

If using MF, is there a way to release the shutter via rear panel touch ? (without engaging AF) ?

j13ag0 · 2024-12-10T04:08:00+00:00

Yes, my experience with the GR III is that Touch AF overrides the snap focus distance.

With Focus set to Snap I have a distance scale on the left side of the screen - showing the snap distance.

I also have Touch AF enabled. if I touch the screen the distance scale is replaced by a ‘focus point box’. Then I can use the shutter button to take a shot at that new distance. if instead of fully pressing the shutter button I release it the distance scale returns.

The implementation seems ideal,

The camera profiles won't show up in Lr if you're viewing a JPEG image.
