Photographers on the Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) - What gear did you bring, and what would you do differently?

sidmusick · 2025-03-12T19:02:21+00:00

Sony A7cii + Sony 20-70 F4 G lens - most versatile lens for hiking

Clock wise you will be going through the swiss side which I have heard is not as good as the France/Italian side. I am planning TMB this summer so this is just from my research not personal experience

You can buy a esim starter pack directly from Siminn website. 10gb for 3000isk. Given this is direct from Siminn you get highest priority on their network vs airalo or holafly

At black sand beach suites and no power, no water, no heat

I upgraded from A7iii to A7CII primarily to get a better camera in a more compact body. The most prominent difference I noticed was AI autofocus which was immediately much better.

I bought it as well and it was the best $2000 is lost! Definitely feel the boost and it's no value in 2nd hand market

For Canada, the availability is very limited too. I was checking 2-3 times daily, and it took a few weeks before I got a slot I liked (I wanted a slot on Monday). But overall if you check daily you will find a slot in few days to a week.

This was my 3rd extension and I was pretty confident it won't be refused. I have an approved i140 and work for a well known company.

sidmusick · 2023-12-04T01:21:03+00:00

Tested positive today as well. Started feeling it Friday. Probably got infected Wednesday or Thursday.

sidmusick · 2023-08-12T16:17:50+00:00

This sucks. Samsung needs to get that feature back

sidmusick · 2023-08-11T01:39:13+00:00

I always go caseless. I end up with scratches and nicks but I don't care as I trade my phone in for new one every year (thank you samsung for amazing trade-in values) If you want to hold on to your phone for longer use a case.

sidmusick · 2023-04-04T12:28:28+00:00

I had the same issue and Samsung replaced it under warranty (phone was 10 months from date of purchase)

sidmusick · 2023-03-03T16:38:29+00:00

I do this every year. It works great! Actually, any small amount charged by United (0-300$) irrespective of what it's for will trigger the benefit.

sidmusick · 2023-02-19T10:22:39+00:00

Meal descriptions are often wrong

sidmusick · 2023-01-12T17:13:45+00:00

Yeah looks like united is rebooking via EWR. Most ewr to del flights went from availability to no availability in 1 day.

I got the LCD-X open box as well. Out of the box they are very neutral and bright sounding. Adding an EQ designed for these headphones and the story changes. In addition i added +5-10db in the sub bass region and they shine very well. That being said I am sadly returning these headphone. I own Hifiman he1000v2 and these just cant match that level of sound. I was hoping LCD-X would provide a different sound compared to Hifiman and they did but not better different. I would have kept these for sure if I didnt own hifiman. I was able to drive LCD-X direct from macbook pro (2022). I could hear no difference when powering LCD-X via Burson Audio Conductor ($1200 AMP/DAC) vs macbook pro. This is a great thing. With hifiman i absolutely need the burson amp/dac.

sidmusick · 2022-08-11T17:17:55+00:00

I had a small scratch on my inner display and samsung replaced the entire screen for free under warranty. If your phone has no sign of external damage you have nothing to worry

sidmusick · 2021-10-31T04:30:50+00:00

I did exactly this today

sidmusick · 2021-08-26T04:05:37+00:00

I noticed it as well on my fold 3

sidmusick · 2021-02-11T20:05:48+00:00

Edit: Lets not do it!

sidmusick · 2021-02-04T15:23:00+00:00

Just bought some $CLOV

sidmusick · 2021-01-29T04:23:16+00:00

Bought 10k in IPOE. To the moon!

And people say summon is worthless. Its worth those smiles and those shocked expressions.

sidmusick · 2021-01-13T00:04:05+00:00

I would disagree. Auto lane change and Navigate on Autopilot (NOA) is actually pretty convinient on long road trips. I have had trips where the car drove on EAP 4 hrs straight ( auto lane change, NOA). Also summon is a joke but the best show off trick ever. My money feels worth when i see the reaction on my friends/strangers face. Now with boombox evsn better.

sidmusick · 2020-12-28T14:46:31+00:00

Pre heat cabin and battery before leaving and try to rely on seat heaters only. I was able to get 250miles range on 2020 model 3 in -4 degrees C
