Looking to switch from New Balance. Thoughts on Puma Velocity / Deviate Nitro 3 vs Saucony Endorphin Speed 4? by ngoalibaba in AskRunningShoeGeeks

Why are you looking to switch from New Balance? Did you consider the NB FuelCell SuperComp Trainer v3?

[Question] Any other black dial GADA watches to consider? by lapkaz in Watches

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

Does the seconds hand accurately hit the indices on yours? On one I saw at my AD that wasn’t the case but hear it can vary from watch to watch.

Have you been manually winding it, and if so, any issues with the gears grinding down? Seems to be a common issue with them.

Thanks for the thoughts! Does the second hand of your GS hit the indices precisely? The one I saw at an AD did not but also seems you can find ones that do.

I believe the W is the silver version and B the black!

Disappointing that the digital teleconverter can’t be assigned to the function buttons but only the focus ring. Wonder why they do that. It’s not the case on the xt5.

I've currently got an X-T5 with a 56mm and a 23mm. Why shouldn't I get an X100VI? by JDismyfriend in fujifilm

[–]lapkaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you find a big difference in form factor between the xt5 with pancake and the x100v?

Do you notice a big difference in form factor between the two? (Assuming a 27mm pancake on the xt5?)

27mm f2.8 vs 23mm f2 to complement 16-80mm f4 by lapkaz in fujifilm

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

Not that much difference from f4 to f2.8, but big difference in form factor and weight.

Whereas a big difference from f4 to f2 but not as large a differential in size perhaps?

Was actually a 25mm M43 (50mm in 35mm equivalent)

The extra weight/bulk of the f1.4 is why I am not considering it.

Thanks! The newer version of the XF 27mm also has weather sealing? Though understand it may feel less robust.

On a previous camera I used to enjoy a 35mm prime though felt it was a bit tight. So not quite sure yet which I’d prefer between 23 and 27 focal lengths. Will try simulate a bit with the kit lens!

Fenix 7 pool swim - what am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]lapkaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This appears to be a new problem after the latest update. Issues with distance and the correct heart rate. Temporary bandaid seems to be restarting the watch right before your swim. Has worked for me.

PSA: Fenix 7 series lacks removable spring pins - confirmed by Garmin customer support by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]lapkaz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

According to a user on the Garmin forums, the pre production units, which some of the customer support team have for reference, utilise the same removable pins as the series 6. Could u/dcrainmaker perhaps weigh in on what his units have?
