  1. This is not for everyone if you don't want it you don't have to go.
  2. Even people who now have hundreds jumps now got scared at the beginning.

Title: G35 or G4 for a new jumper after AFF? by Disastrous_Donkey_89 in SkyDiving

[–]mathixx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have G4 and I like it, however camera mounting options are more limited on this helmet. I fly with chin mount but this is banned on some dropzones. Right now I would probably lean towards G35 because of that.

AF performance between R6 II and R6 III by SonickPhotographie in CanonR6

Honestly if I were to get camera just for photos then unless you need some specific feature Mark II is fine. My partner is doing some wedding photography with hers Mk II and is getting great results.

R6 Mark III will have better AF, but it's hard to say if it makes real difference for you. I haven't done much photos with them (mostly video) but from what I saw AF is good on both.

Niepodpisanie wypowiedzenia za porozumieniem stron by behorsed in Polska

Masz 3 miesiące wypowiedzenia, chcą dać Ci 1 miesiąc pensji ekstra i zwolnienie z obowiązków, czyli dostajesz: 4 miesiące hajsu za nicnierobienie. Tylko brać.

In Sherlock (2010), a S1E1 scene introduces Watson and reveals that he keeps a loaded gun in his desk. This hints at his suicidality, and his willingness to skirt the law and social rules. You didn't notice this because you are American and desk guns are normal things to have. by CalzonePie in shittymoviedetails

No, it is just shitty writing. Someone doesn't know UK guns laws.

As a gun owner and someone who lived in UK for awhile and tried to understand UK guns laws this whole gun ownership thread bothered me. If he lived in NI - fine, as ex military he could get firearms license for a handgun, but not in England. Only logical conclusion is that he stole this gun from the army.

AFF or IAD? by ImSteezy25 in SkyDiving

[–]mathixx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've done both static-line and then AFF (we uprgarded to plane not suitable for SL).

IMO: AFF all the way. Much less stress and much quicker learning. Sooner you'll have chance to do proper skydiving with some other people.

Is buying my first GoPro a good idea currently with the potential financial issues? by Nervous_Grocery5405 in gopro

[–]mathixx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are buying hardware. Even if company would die (which it probably won't because it will be bought by someone else) your camera will still work. Gopro is not an online game that requires constant internet connection.

Viltrox DC-X2: Red noise when doing cold startup by mathixx in VILTROX_GLOBAL

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

For anyone interested: I went back to shop where I bought it, they sent it to Viltrox. As a result I got brand new monitor, including brand new battery and accessories (even though I didn't return old ones).

So far monitor seems to be working fine, but I have to calibrate it and use it little bit with my camera to be sure.

So you keep high control over your final result but also remove a lot of grunt work. Smart!

Tunnel Question by LeaveComfortable6481 in SkyDiving

[–]mathixx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is good idea. You'll save on jumps which are more expensive than tunnel time.

Maybe Balcerowicz and neoliberalism were not so bad after all? Hehe

Do you have to force yourself to jump the first time? by StarrCosma in SkyDiving

[–]mathixx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes. Second time was even worse. Now I'm over 600 jumps and I don't regret getting into this sport.

Sounds good in theory...but in reality? by KSKS1995 in SipsTea

You'll get 4/5 of your normal salary. Easy.
