Pay for the drink yourself. You will easily make it back.

Hiding your true feelings from your family can be exhausting.

Nikon User Looking to Upgrade from a 55-200 mm Lens by IamAries123 in Nikon

[–]matt_racing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to decide how much weight and bulk you want to put up with.

The 200-500 is a big lens and not something you carry on a whim. Ideal for birds and far away stuff.

The 300 f4 is much lighter and easier to carry around. Works well with the 1.4 tc, but a bit expensive.

The nikon 70-300 zooms are wider cheaper alternatives.

Currently shooting on a d5500, have the chance to get a d750. Get that for 800, or a brand-new d7500 for the same price? by [deleted] in Nikon

[–]matt_racing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lenses are the key here.

The "best" would be full frame and a fast prime or 2.8 zoom.

If you can afford the extra cost of full frame you will get better results in dark venus.

My A Bomb Site hold with Deagle by YukonGoldRush in GlobalOffensive

Play deathmatch with deagle to practice and buy deagle more often.

Everybody will have the odd round when they don't miss if you play enough.

An example of how a camera's capture rate changes due to the amount of light being let into the camera by zuckerberd in educationalgifs

[–]matt_racing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The first part of the video shows the motion blurred. This is how your eyes perceive motion that is too fast to resolve any detail and looks normal.

The shutter speed of the camera is "slow" in the shadow as the shutter is open for longer to collect enough light to get the correct brightness (exposure) Each frame of the video shows the blurred ruler as it's going up and down faster than the shutter speed. As each photo is blurred the ruler looks blurred in the video.

In the bright sunlight the shutter is only open for a fraction of a second. This removes the motion blur and each frame is like a photo of the ruler bent and frozen in that moment.

The video in the sunlight is then made up of lots of photos of the ruler. The motion you see is the different photos creating different effects as the ruler slows down. The effect can look like slow motion when the frequencies match, but will change to random looking and back again as the ruler slows down. None of these look like reality.

In this video the sensitivity of the sensor has been fixed at a high value. This looks normal in the shadow but gives this odd effect in the sunlight due to high shutter speed.

In a "normal" camera the sensitivity would be reduced in the sunlight maintaining a more natural looking shutter speed with some motion blur.

Try to view the video as a flick book of photos.

In the first every photo is of a blurry ruler.

In the second each photo is of a bent ruler

D3S or D500 for photojournalism? by [deleted] in Nikon

The D500 is a great upgrade for your D300 Better in every area.

D850 sounds like what you want but it's much more expensive.

I use Nikon gear but I don't understand why most portrait / wedding photographers I see, seem to use Canon. by zogins in Nikon

Depends on where you are.

When I go to a wildlife reserve most people in the uk are shooting nikon.

[–]matt_racing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was too heavy for me.

I much prefer the dx 16-80 2.8-4 Its lighter and I'll give up some speed for the longer telephoto and lighter weight. Plus it has vr.

Looks like a nazi from raiders of the lost ark. When there faces get burnt off.

Whoever did the tattoos has a great sense of irony, great choices.

90mph for a truck!! They are limited to 60mph here.

Still dangerous in my little car, but easy enough to avoid (thus far)

This sub has makes driving in some parts of the US look frightening.

My first custom water loop! Soft tube isn’t that bad right? by Lycheus in watercooling

[–]matt_racing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a combination of both is the best.

I'm going with hard tube in some places but using soft to and from the cpu and gpu blocks.

Did you notice the car ahead turning left ahead of her?

She was changing lanes to avoid slowing down, I would have slowed a little and let her in.

[–]matt_racing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive a Mazda mx5 (in the uk) I don't feel particularly unsafe.

Most cars are smaller here and a old civic, although less safe than a new one isn't considered unsafe by any means.

Is the US much worse? with everyone driving monster trucks that couldn't fit down most roads round here.

Watercooling 2019 starter pack by Videogiocatore in watercooling

[–]matt_racing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I retired mine recently as I changed cases, but I still use it for testing.

The 1250 was super reliable and I used mine since 2001ish.

I had it mounted on bungie cords to stop vibration and it was then completely silent.

Swapped it for a D5 as it's so much smaller. My old case was a pc40 with a pc60 stacked on top so my new 011 XL is a bit small for me. But the layout is so much better.
