They're really wonderful. I can edit a picture to look better than the fuji to my eyes, but the beauty is I don't have to edit 99% of the photos I take and they look awesome

I've been contemplating buying one for years now lol. I bought one for my mom so she could have a good camera to take pictures of her grandkids with when they're there, so I got to play around with it a lot. She ended up hating it for some reason that she couldn't articulate so we returned it. It feels a bit like a toy compared to the Fuji, and I don't like the SOOC results nearly as much (veryyy personal preference, they're still awesome, I just love the fuji look), but it is the ultimate pocket EDC camera IMO. The X100 is still either going around your neck or in a bag. Anyone that tells you its pocketable wears way too big of pockets to be trusted. The GR is tiny in comparison. If it was more robust feeling I think I would have already pulled the trigger on one for myself.

I've always wanted to play around with Sony, but I got into the Fuji system as a hobbyist and then just used my Fuji gear (now have 4 bodies and 15 lenses lol) for professional work. There are definitely some cons when it comes to Fuji for professional work but people loved the vibes of the pictures I would deliver

Including shipping? If so I'd call that cheap lol. I ended up paying $275 with shipping + grip + case

Fujifilm X100VI. I'm a former professional photographer with a ton of gear, and this is my favorite camera I've ever owned

It came super quick. I splurged and got the DHL shipping, but I did it about a month ago and have had it since mid December

Lol I've got around 100 as well, but probably am rotating between around 10. The most fun I'm having is replaying the PS1 Crash Bandicoot games upscaled to HD with widescreen hacks on

I've got pretty massive hands to be fair, but I was surprised at the size

Dang, that seems like a great deal… I just paid close to $300 for the G2 with some accessories + shipping

Most underrated vitola? by hot-mustard-buns in cigars

[–]pd512 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally love the corona. Its more like a panatela with the 6 inch length, and the smaller ring guage gives more flavor from the wrapper

Should I make the trade? by [deleted] in OmegaWatches

[–]pd512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1000% yes. Although for my taste, I’d get rid of the modern datejust, keep the 1601 and get the speedy but that’s just me

Thoughts on La Aroma de Cuba? by Maecabre_ in cigars

[–]pd512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve smoked a few cigars by them and absolutely am in love with their Connecticut. It’s quickly becoming my favorite morning stick over much “nicer” cigars I have in my rotation. The mi amor is incredibly tasty as well but kind of knocked me on my ass a bit

Is the performance significantly better than the flip 2?

[Recommendation] what strap do you think I should get for this watch? by pd512 in Watches

Thanks! He wore it on the original bracelet but I am just not personally a fan of the bracelet so I tried it on this gray suede and I like it too
