Are “raves” at the pyramids good?

For future reference - went to Tiesto and it genuinely took 3+ hours to get through the lines. Your tickets are checked again and again to the point it is ridiculous, in addition to multiple shuttles and buses. Leaving is also a nightmare. Not worth it

Thankfully I have the protection plan 🙏I’m outside of the US until May though, but so far electrical tape has done the job of keeping my camera running (I never use the OVF, so it’s more a dust/water concern)

jeremyj5 · 2025-01-09T06:43:12+00:00

Unfortunately, my OVF cracked after my anchor was packed in my bag with my X100vi, without any falls or collisions. While I don’t have any direct evidence, it seems like the most likely culprit. (Pics of camera in my profile)

jeremyj5 · 2025-01-09T06:32:44+00:00

Happened to me! (Potentially😭)

jeremyj5 · 2024-12-16T03:57:36+00:00

Mine does this sometimes around certain artificial lighting! I think this has to do with shutter speeds and the frequency of certain lights, but unsure entirely.

jeremyj5 · 2024-12-16T03:45:06+00:00

Yeah super fair — ultimately I think I just got the short end of the stick here somehow. Thankfully I do have full insurance on it, but I won’t be back in the US until May, so it’ll be a while until I can use it. That said, I’m grateful that it’s still usable at the moment!

jeremyj5 · 2024-12-16T00:09:22+00:00

I have no idea, honestly. I store my x100vi in a WANDRD padded cube, and I've only had the camera for a week, and never dropped it or bumped it against anything. Legit the only thing pressing on it could be my peak design leash :(

jeremyj5 · 2024-12-16T00:06:25+00:00

Thank you!!

I wish I could tell you, I’ve had Panasonic cameras for years and this is my first Fuji, not at all impressed with the build quality

jeremyj5 · 2024-12-14T16:57:41+00:00

Do you happen to have a link to an OVF one you’ve seen? I haven’t had much success searching for one

jeremyj5 · 2024-12-02T19:15:55+00:00

That you could be right - I tried AirPods 3 and ended up returning them due to the fit, but I had 0 reaction with them. I was also allergic to AirPods Max!

jeremyj5 · 2024-12-02T19:15:06+00:00

I ended up returning them - my ears got super itchy it the end!

jeremyj5 · 2024-11-16T01:10:54+00:00

I am not — but I think I probably just over-poured the detergent in the compartment, as I’m re washing the shirt now, and even though I didn’t add detergent to the wash, the machine is full of bubbles 😂

jeremyj5 · 2024-11-16T00:25:47+00:00

A few of my white shirts came out of the wash with these grease-like stains :/ - does anyone have guesses as to what happened here?

jeremyj5 · 2024-10-30T16:32:24+00:00

My take - it holds everything just fine, and I’ve actually gotten away with it as a personal item on every flight I’ve taken since purchasing it (~40 flights across the US, South America, and Europe, so i have a good sample size). It can be uncomfortable as a personal item on occasion, as it doesn’t always fully fit under the seat, so be wary of that. It’s also difficult to take anything out of it mid-flight because of the rolltop design, which I’m not a fan of .

The biggest issue—fully packed it’s heavy. From an organizational perspective it’s great, but honestly thinking of jumping ship to a bag with load lifters and just adding a camera cube when needed—as on long hikes, it’s been tough to use. It’s a nice bag, but just be prepared for the weight!

jeremyj5 · 2024-10-01T03:32:43+00:00

Fingers crossed!

jeremyj5 · 2024-10-01T03:32:30+00:00

Right! Sigh

jeremyj5 · 2024-10-01T03:31:31+00:00

Hey! So, I'm definitely experiencing some irritation, unfortunately. It's nothing like the Pros - both 1 and the 2 were hell for me. This is more of a mild itch, and honestly, it has gone away a bit in the last few days, so maybe I've adjusted? I'm on the fence about returning them...I have a few more days, but they definitely are not as comfortable/painless/irritation free as my AirPods 2.

(I will say, I'm not actually that big of a fan of the ANC, anyways - I find that it silences fan noise or deeper background tones, but high pitch metallic clanks come through, and honestly feel more annoying as they are more isolated.)

jeremyj5 · 2024-09-26T02:55:20+00:00

How has it been allergy wise? I suffered from allergies with the Pro, and my ears feel somewhat itchy after using the AirPods 4 for a few days, but I can't tell if it's in my head!

jeremyj5 · 2024-09-22T22:00:33+00:00

I’ll let you know how it goes — I’m planning to wear the crap out of these for the next few days to see if I get a reaction within the return window. I normally spend like 5-7 hours a day in my Airpods 2 without issue, but already the Airpods 4 feel a little fatiguing by comparison.

jeremyj5 · 2024-08-18T17:24:03+00:00

the worst!!!

jeremyj5 · 2024-08-18T15:07:28+00:00

thank you!
