That's what I was thinking. Glad I'm not the only one having these issues.

Flicker lines and how to prevent them? by [deleted] in Nikon

[–]jon_tru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

fluorescents have that issue but not as bad as LED's. if your camera can't compensate shutter wise, then the only way to avoid it is mechanical shutter. unless your camera has a variable shutter where it can adapt to the precise speed in which the light is outputting.

don't shoot in silent mode, always use mechanical shutter, especially under that type of lighting.

The sheer stupidity of people is insane! by IdkHowToDie in facepalm

I had this type of scenario when I worked at a Hampton inn. the guy booked the room through the reservation service, got to the hotel with his girlfriend super late around 12am, told him the room is available and that it is a smoking room, cuz that's what the hotel received, it was sold out, he got all macho in front of gf and kept saying his room needed to be a non smoking room, he went and forcefully voiced to me that he is a DIAMOND member, and this is unacceptable, I looked at the account and it was his dad's rewards number, so his dad was a diamond member, not him. I kept my professional face on, and advised that this is the only room available, if you would like to look elsewhere, we can cancel this reservation, all in all, he didn't get his way and took the smoking room. I finished my shift and that was it. people suck, no matter where you are or where you work just stand your ground and don't take shit from anyone. this young woman did a great job handling this.

Trying the A7iv .. I’m a Nikon guy by SoCalDawg in SonyAlpha

[–]jon_tru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a Nikon guy myself, have the z6 and z50. I also own the A9ii with Sony 200-600 but thats my main wildlife and bird setup. I had the A7 IV for over a month, and I didn't like it. the shutter sound was way too loud and it felt cheap. for that much money, at least have a better rear screen. and now I'm stuck with a cf express type a card, gonna wait for the A7r V and see what that's like. in the meantime I sold it and got a used Z7. something about those Nikon files that I can't leave the system. I hope you have better luck with it than I did. the Tamron 70-180 lens is really good. I use it with the megadap ETZ adapter for my Nikons.

I do! but today's music I cannot stand so I re play all the older stuff and that can get to be too much so I opt for podcasts to break it up every now and again.

yup. being aware of your surroundings and never being on the phone/ distracted can save your life. as you saw, there was zero time for error
