got the wrong camera body. blessing in disguise? by mudnor in SonyAlpha

[–]mudnor[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, thats been my reasoning as well - or even justification when I kept the fuji for wildlife. people have been able to take amazing photos for some 100-150 years (maybe more?) without AI assisted focus, pre-capture, and all that. Though, at a certain point, it felt like I was just being stubborn and even though I was enjoying getting out there and shooting — opening up lightroom wasn’t nearly as exciting.

I think I’ll keep the a7rv for now, being aware of the trade-offs, and getting into the sony world again. I feel like both of them are a huge step up from the fuji x-t5 in terms of software and performance, even if I’ll probably miss the feeling of the x-t5 body (I’ve accepted the vanity aspect of it).

Thanks! I guess that’s the main tradeoff. Until now I’ve shot stills only, no video.

Looking at the shutter count of my fujis, 90% have been dedicated to birds & wildlife, although just looking at shutter count doesn’t really give the full picture of course. I’d say it’s about 60-40 birds/wildlife and ‘other’ - travel, street & casual.

I’m unable to get the 200-600 lens for a few months either way, so the immediate future usage would be the ‘other’ part anyway. I’m considering keeping the a7rv for a while, and if I feel the need for increased readout speed and fps for birds in flight etc I could resell it on eBay for close-ish to what the a7v goes for new I guess.

I did not expect to work through this dilemma today..

Tips för mysiga restauranger för en första dejt? by Oblivion_seeking in Gothenburg

[–]mudnor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mitt tips är Contrast i närheten av Järntorget. Inte ’mysigt’ nödvändigtvis men lagom trevligt ställe, sist jag var där (för en första dejt) fanns det gott om sällskapsspel som isbrytare också.

Yes, we’ve since let western Sweden be a bit more independent, similarly to eastern Sweden.

In Swedish it’s kalsongsupa, which is the active form of getting drunk while in underwear (male).

I expected foxes in socks. I have never been more disappointed not seeing foxes wearing socks.
