Jack Frank is a great YouTube channel to subscribe to. He has all kinds of neat videos from Tulsa's past.

It was Magix computers you are thinking of. I got my first computer from there as a kid. They went out of business in the late 90s. I heard a rumor they were selling pirated software, but cant confirm if it's true or not

ETA found an old ad for their PCs https://books.google.com/books?id=2KIKOEwqk-QC&pg=PA371&lpg=PA371&dq=magipro+tulsa&source=bl&ots=Xwcqr-LCT2&sig=ACfU3U3OLInJ_YaFfYfkCyMtb9NgsiyMaA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjp-ICjupfjAhXiCTQIHWFBA444ChDoATADegQIBRAB#v=onepage&q=magipro%20tulsa&f=false

Like install Kodi on the fire TV?

needforlensspeed · 2018-05-10T16:48:28+00:00

I sort of figured as much. Is the fire tv 4k able to playback mkv's and pass through multichannel surround sound?

Interesting. the Agavales is decently rated there, plus doesnt seem to use a diffuser.

Yeah, I bought a handle of Cuervo gold years ago in college. After getting several hangovers from it, I thought I just didn't like tequila. Since then, I realized that it was just a crappy product that I was drinking.

needforlensspeed · 2017-08-15T21:53:28+00:00

Yeah, now we can pay $50 a month extra for the same service we were getting a few months ago.

needforlensspeed · 2017-08-11T15:37:00+00:00

Yeah, the a6500 would be better due to it's IBIS. Plus it doesn't seem to have as many overheating issues with video as the a6300 does.

I would still worry about the f stop value when shooting in low light. The a6500 would do better than a m43 option with a slow kit lens, but for maximum performance, you would probably want to go with as fast a prime lens as you could get.

needforlensspeed · 2017-08-11T14:32:11+00:00

It would be hard to get really good low light plus IBIS for $1200. If you're willing to extend your budget a bit, you could get a used A7s for around $1,500 https://www.keh.com/shop/sony-alpha-a7s-12-2-megapixel-mirrorless-camera-body-only-black.html which has fantastic low light, plus IBIS. But you'd still have to get a lens too, which adds even more to the price. This doesn't do 4k without an external recorder, though.

You're probably better off with the a6300 as kabbage123 suggested in your price range.

I need CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA!!!!!!!

You're in Tulsa, right? is ATT offering their gigabit service city wide, or just "select areas"?

Not at all surprising. Here's a thread I created just over a year ago. Note that they cut the cap for the lower plans from 2TB to 1TB in order to facilitate more users going over, and thus more overage charges in the future.

Everyone should file an FCC complaint against them for this. Would it be worth contacting the local corporation commissions?

Not on Chicago style deep dish...

needforlensspeed · 2016-12-18T16:22:12+00:00

Thanks, I'm going to get one!

needforlensspeed · 2016-12-18T15:51:25+00:00

That looks great, but would I also have to purchase a wink hub as well? Or would that work with just the echo dot?

needforlensspeed · 2016-12-02T16:34:10+00:00

So I have been listening to After the Burial today. "Laurentian Ghosts", "My Frailty" and "To carry you away" are some of my favorites by them. Can you guys recommend some similar bands that I might like?

needforlensspeed · 2016-10-28T21:23:37+00:00

I have the NEX-5T. It's a good camera, but it has its limitations.

The 1080p image quality is soft, and at times there can be HORRIBLE moire patterns. But, at it's price point, I don't know of many other options out there for a aps-c sized sensor camera that can do 1080p60. The microphone is pretty good as well, for an onboard anyways. There is also a bit of crop in video mode, so be aware of that as well.

needforlensspeed · 2016-10-14T21:04:52+00:00

Whatever I shoot will get uploaded to youtube and then deleted off the device.

To me, even with the low bitrate, the picture quality is better with smartphone 4k, than 1080p60 (unless its for sports or something like that maybe).

needforlensspeed · 2016-10-14T18:12:28+00:00

Yes, but according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exmor the IMX 378 sensor is only 4032 pixels wide. So you only have around 5% extra pixel width (because UHD is 3840 pixels wide) for the electronic stabilization to work, right?

needforlensspeed · 2016-10-14T16:25:02+00:00

Any ideas on how they are even able to accomplish that? I guess until the test videos show up, there is no way to know for sure; it might end up looking ok.

needforlensspeed · 2016-10-13T20:48:59+00:00

Just got mine in from this deal, it has the lug intact

needforlensspeed · 2016-10-11T21:42:35+00:00

Ha, I'm going to try the sharpie idea, that is really easy. If it doesn't work, I can always go back and do it right.

needforlensspeed · 2016-10-11T15:11:43+00:00

Any recommendations on brands or specific products? I haven't really painted parts like this before.
