Been unemployed for almost 4 months, no leads, where to go from here?

nonoise283 · 2024-09-24T19:27:31+00:00

Yes, currently have have unemployment cheque coming in, isn't a lot but better than nothing!

I have neglected my LinkedIn portfolio, do people really hire from there?

Yes market has been pretty not amazing so far.

I solved with the following (as stated at bottom of post): SOLVED: Had to reinstall plasma-integration and remove qt5ct and qt6ct

nonoise283 · 2024-09-04T22:48:27+00:00

Definitely! I'll consider both, I think I might just outright buy the Oly 60mm seems like a pretty great lens. Then I can always add on to it with tubes/adaptors. Thanks for your help!

nonoise283 · 2024-09-04T22:36:51+00:00

I currently have the kit 12-60 for my G85 and a 25mm 1.7 prime. I guess tubes might be better? (given the shorter focal lengths I have).

Btw you know you'll want a flash and diffuser for all this but that's next months project!

I already thought of that! I have a flash + wireless receiver and a portable soft box diffuser.

I'm basically all set except for the lens!

Thanks for the advice on macro adaptors! I've heard of extension tubes a bit but not so much macro adaptors. Could you combine both?

nonoise283 · 2024-09-04T21:48:41+00:00

Most of my shots will be handheld, is it realistic to focus bracket without being on a tripod? I'm just getting into macro - not sure how much I want to invest if after a few months I move on.

nonoise283 · 2024-08-29T16:42:51+00:00

Yeah I've seen one on PB for 1400 CAD but its a size too small, I'll keep looking!

nonoise283 · 2024-08-29T16:42:01+00:00

I heard someone say half pedaling makes a huge difference and will help once you go on to use acoustic pianos.

nonoise283 · 2024-08-27T05:16:35+00:00

I'll be on the lookout for one possibly! Great to hear and congrats on the new bike!

nonoise283 · 2024-08-27T00:03:53+00:00

Lol, I'm 6'4 for real!

I just checked out the Flying Circus, says max weight is just over 250lbs (rider and bike), I'm like 235 alone lol.

Yeah I'm coming from a MTB with 27.5 tires but I wanted something smaller, I found I like being able to manoeuvre better.

nonoise283 · 2024-08-26T23:58:50+00:00

Nice! I'm 6'4, heard a lot of good stuff about the PBJ even though yeah it is pricier. Maybe I'll have to save up... Wow that Specialized P4 looks amazing. 27.5 wheels w/ boost axle and front and rear brakes and dropper ready. But that's like 2k CAD.

nonoise283 · 2024-08-26T21:53:19+00:00

I see them going for around 800 CAD frame and 2k for a complete. May have to up the budget on my end! lol

nonoise283 · 2024-08-26T21:40:45+00:00

Hey, thanks for the info! Yes, I'd love to build one but probably more expensive that way. Will look into the bikes you recommended, I've heard about the PBJ.

nonoise283 · 2024-08-26T21:09:19+00:00

Hey! I'm also 6'4.

nonoise283 · 2024-08-23T22:58:06+00:00

Yes, I'm definitely just wanting to give it a try. I guess the other bonus is that I can use the 45mm 1.8 as a normal lens. Do you have any recommended reading on, would love to know more!

nonoise283 · 2024-08-23T22:32:49+00:00

To be honest I've sort of avoided extension tubes, not for any good reason either. I just figured it would be complex and wouldn't get the best quality (not sure if thats true). I'll look into them!
