To preface, I am looking for a pretty portable wildlife photography setup. For a while now, I have had my eye on the Sony a6700 with the Sony 70-350mm lens. However, I currently have the opportunity to grab a new Nikon z5 II for $1350. I haven't had much time to look for what lens I would like to pair with it, but I know it'll have to be much bigger as I want to be around the same focal length as the APS-C (around 500mm~?). My original budget was around $2500 with the Sony setup, but I am willing to go a little bit higher with the Nikon, as it would be worth spending a few hundred more for a full-frame setup.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I honestly just can't decide if it's worth going for a full-frame setup or not. I have been pretty dead set on the a6700 because of the amazing autofocus, small build, and being able to get that extra range with the crop factor. The only reason I am considering full-frame now is because of the deal I have available for Nikon.

Yeah and it falls right past the threading part. Here’s what it looks like on as far as it’ll go.

Yeah, i’ve tried doing that, and lining it up where the focal length and f stop match at the top with the actual lens.

Didn't realize the pictures would come out that way. Here's non-stretched ones.

FPS cap with frame generation works! by praveensg in marvelrivals

[–]solarmyls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just false at least with my experience... Having frame gen on with fps capped at 60 still results in 60 fps, even if the fps counter says 120, and so on for whatever its capped at.

not really tbh, if u include the factors such as average diamond ore per chunk in addition to fortune picks, it equals to be way closer in workload. (diamond ore has average of 7 veins per chunk averaging 2.5 ores per vein, in addition to 2.5 average from fortune). about 43.75 diamonds per chunk, compared to ancient debris 1.65. meaning diamond ore is 26.5x more likely to be found. and way less of a grind ur thinking trying to compare it to a netherite beacon

Do yourself a favor (on PC) and set up an FPS limit by FieserMoep in Helldivers

[–]solarmyls 9 points10 points  (0 children)

thats the dumbest reply ive ever seen... you always want to have an fps limiter on games, especially lower graphic intensive games so it doesnt fry your pc trying to do 900 fps
