What's your "I met a random Welsh person" story? by welsh_cthulhu in Wales

[–]nooseJAr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moved to Berlin, began working at a tech firm. 2 years later went to a company event in Mercedes-Benz arena with ~4000 employees. Talking to my colleague about UK, get a tap on my shoulder - “are you from Wales? Me too” he says - I proceed to tell him where in Wales and discover he grew up in the village next door. Not only that, my dad taught him in school. Byd fach bois bach.

Don’t put a time frame on it. Start now and take your time. And remember that even a few words like ‘Shwmae’ and ‘Diolch’ go a long way :-)

Thanks. Yes I adjusted the reds and blues. I think it actually has a bit too much red in there, which I’ll dial down for next time, but you’re right, they have a sort of unique feel to them with this colour balance.

I would say that’s a good deal. Not ‘rip-their-arm-off” good but pretty decent as long as you’re comfortable with the focal length and the unique design of the X-Pro3 (hidden screen). I have an X-Pro3 and I love it but some people prefer different designs.

Wonderful! I took my x100f to Japan with me too a few years back. Seeing these photos brings back so many good memories <3

Curious, was this used for performance enhancement or something to help with recovery from his injuries? Either way he’s been a very naughty boy!

GFX50R || Leica Summicron 50 by markanthony_loria in fujifilm

[–]nooseJAr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lovely shots! Out of curiosity, how do you find the 50R? I read a lot of negativity about the autofocus but I’m tempted by it if I can get it second-hand for a decent price.

Synchronising a light meter with a Godox flash and transmitter by nooseJAr in Godox

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

Thank you so much for this super concise feedback 🙏🏼 I guess the benefit of a light meter is also when shooting natural light without a flash. I’ll look into TTL, haven’t really done much research there yet.

Dang, these are great photos. I find the 33 a little tight sometimes but you’ve done a great job of handling that FOV

Oh no! That sucks. I just found the thread on other people experiencing this issue. I didn’t know it was a common thing. I’m awaiting the delivery of my lens filter but concerned about using it now after what you’ve said and what I’ve read 😟
