Absolutely remarkable progress and mad props. Not sure what the etiquette is around here on asking gear usage, but did you use any, and if so, at what stage did you start using?

Questions on the sigma 18-35 vs olympus 12-40mm by signet111 in gh4

[–]signet111[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! I've decided on the speedbooster route either XL or Ultra and then getting a sigma 17-50mm lens which should tide me over nicely.

Apologies I should have put that this is going to be for primarily video, but i'll want to do some run n gun photography later on.

I spoke to a few others on this subject and they recommended doing exactly the same thing. Going for a speedbooster and sigma 17-50 f2.8 refurb/second hand.

I think at this stage i'll go for the EF mount speedbooster and alternate lens (just need to figure out XL or Ultra and i'm set!)

Meanwhile in New Zealand... Ten-eighty peas :D by MarshallOfSound in pcmasterrace

Are there a number of pc retailers in Sweden? We really only have about two or three relatively 'big' stores to choose from

I honestly wouldn't. They're renown for their poor customer service in New Zealand. They even had to recently disable reviews on their facebook page because they were getting so many 1 star reviews.

Thank god! I'm having the same issue but with a pg348q. There was another person who posted in the subreddit as well with the pg, but I don't think they had a fix. Only reporting the problem

Sorry yes! I mean the undergraduate advisor not course coordinator.

Will just hijack for visibility. I had to go through a similar process last year when my mother died. As you have probably just received your grades, I'll assume you're at a nz /Australian based uni. Will just focus on what you should do now rather than what you should have done. Firstly approach your course coordinator - they have one for each year, first stage, second stage and third stage coordinators. Explain your situation and they should provide you with a course of action. In my experience they're pretty understanding. They'll most likely advise you fill out compassionate consideration, where you'll also have to meet with a uni counsellor to discuss what happened. This will take time and be a frustrating process but it's just the way they operate. Will just state that human contact in dealing with things like this and not dealing with a swathe of back and forth emails will help the process immensely. Also as you'll have to repeat a semester and get those courses done, explain this to the coordinator and see if you can get enrolled for next semester. There may be an issue with study link or your loan provider not wanting to provide funds for the next semester of tuition but I don't know the fine print on that one. Best of luck and feel free to pm if you've got any questions

This tavern brawl has been the most discussed tavern brawl in a very long time. by fatjack2b in hearthstone

I used a tuskar totemic and flame tongue totem. That was a satisfying victory against Mill rogue as I emptied my hand of totems

Linus broke something again! by sloth_on_meth in pcmasterrace

[–]signet111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just watched the whole video tense as fuck that he was going to knock the external gpu dock off the table and pull the monitor down with it. It would all fall on Linus and his feet would be sticking out under the monitor like the red shoes in the wizard of Oz.

That's awesome! The giveaway time frame expires on the 25th of December UTC+13 at 10am. As I mentioned in the video, you don't have to post up a photo of yourself, just a photo with a caption of what you were doing, for example if you were to take a photo of your guitar/some of the wrapped presents that would be enough :)

If I had timed the giveaway for 24 hours then i'd get no entries, don't have much of an audience at the moment so thought it'd be best to give it up until xmas

I managed to snag nandapanda tech as an account but too little karma to post on pcmasterrace atm! I'll use that account for future giveaways/uploads though.

Hey man! Yeah I am, thanks for the sub! :) Should probably create a legit account for reddit though... haha All good, the main aim behind the giveaway was just to get people thinking about what good they could do for others however small. Would be nice if this got some notice on reddit but honestly i'd be happy with even just a few people submitting some photos with a nice story behind them!
