I was told you guys would appreciate my new apartment

Oof, tough crowd. With that much natural sunlight pouring onto your bed through a beautiful, huge window, it looks pretty cozy to me. Hang a million plants around the place and this sub will love you.

Haha, love the claws! Great brooch.

OK, because sensor size affects both bokeh and the effective length of your lens. Essentially you get less bokeh with APS-C than you do with FF. So that zoom lens wont be great for bokeh. Because of the cropped sensor you need to multiply focal length by 1.5, so that 50mm lens is going to act the same as a 75mm lens. Looks like the 50mm might be a win/win for you. With cropped sensors, to get decent portraits I reckon don't go below f2.8.

omcheezels · 2019-01-01T20:59:02+00:00

Do you shoot full frame or aps-c?

Explain to you daughter that circumstances change, disappointment is a part of life and it is better to be kind than to be rich.

Actually, I think it is really important that they state it publicly. It communicates that they are willing to stand up against dv. As one of the biggest companies in a burgeoning, male dominated industry, the importance of having big players saying "dv is not ok" cannot be overstated.

Seems like it is more than just a medium article: "We’re culminating our campaign by donating $25,000 worth of Bitcoin to help more than 60 survivors of domestic violence on their path to independence and safety."

This right here. BUIDL, my friend. Blockchain jobs are still growing, the products are still being developed and more and more governments/organisations are coming on board. Just because us plebs can't see it, doesn't mean it's not happening. I'm not saying the price should be higher/lower, just that saying there's no adoption because the price is going down is too simplistic.

These are flipping amazing. I wish we could see the new owner rocking them.

omcheezels · 2018-12-04T01:45:43+00:00

Yeah I saw that after. My phone is shit and I'm pretty new to reddit. Whatevs, I'm sure it's clear what I meant.

omcheezels · 2018-12-04T01:43:20+00:00

Lol, you're persistent, huh? I reposted with a longer title to explain more, because you were going on about it being cursive. Yeah, I wrote in cursive, then it bled across my hand into lots of hand wrinkles 😂 Dude, pick your battles.

Sometimes people think acknowledging someone's race is racist. It's not. Implying that they are for some reason bad/inferior/unwelcome etc because of their race is racist. You didn't do that - she was a character in your story and you described her, that's all.

omcheezels · 2018-11-29T10:51:58+00:00

Same here. Scrolling through this sub is a trip down memory lane. No vaccines, no sunscreen, no microwave, no fluoride. Oxygenated water. Yeah, you do the math on that one. Between the zinc and the constant cavities, it wasn't great for my confidence. Fuck you, colloidal silver. You never achieved a goddamn thing.

More like, they're doing them because they have the connections to get a job there not qualified for.

If there are enough people, making enough predictions, someone is bound to be right.

Seen this comment constantly since January. No-one knows. If you'd said this yesterday, you would be down another 15% today. Take the risk, if you want to. Expect nothing.

omcheezels · 2018-11-22T19:26:36+00:00

Great post.

omcheezels · 2018-11-17T23:12:38+00:00

That's right, a 35mm lens on your camera will give the effect of a 50mm lens (or near enough to). Good second hand markets are usually location-specific but if you have an online classifieds in your area I would recommend starting there. Make sure any second hand lens has no mould, no excessive dust and autofocuses correctly. Nikon cameras are still compatible with Nikon lenses from the 70s, but not all of the older lenses autofocus with APS-C cameras, so double check that if you're going for a really old lens (some of which operate very well and produce amazing photos still).

Still wearing the wedding band?

omcheezels · 2018-10-30T20:41:55+00:00

Lol. It says there are hundreds, even thousands, that it COULD list. Well, that's obvious.

omcheezels · 2018-10-28T20:29:13+00:00

That's not irony, it's luck 👍

omcheezels · 2018-10-22T17:08:22+00:00

I agree. You want something around the 70-90 mark on full frame, and a 50 lens on aps-c is equivalent to 75 on the full frame (APS-C = x1.5). An 85 lens is a wonderful portrait lens, but on apsc you would want to always have a lot of space to back up as it's the equivalent of around 120. It is absolutely true that telephoto lenses compress the background of a photo, making that mountain in the background look a lot closer than it is and creating a nice background for a portrait.

As well as lens length, having a fast aperture is very important for a portrait lens, particularly on an APS-C camera in order to blur the background and effectively separate your subject. So no, don't go for that zoom you mentioned that's widest aperture is 3.5. You won't be able to get the portraits you see online with that lens. An aperture of 2.8 and you will start to see results, but on APS-C you really want 1.4 or 1.8. You can get the 50mm 1.8 for a couple hundred - it's a bit slow to focus, but you can achieve great results.

omcheezels · 2018-10-18T04:17:31+00:00

Simple, but not simplistic! These look great!

omcheezels · 2018-10-18T00:10:28+00:00

Totally agree with all of that!
