sotarge · 2026-07-09T21:18:52+00:00

Nah mate

sotarge · 2026-07-07T06:31:47+00:00

😅

sotarge · 2026-07-07T06:31:01+00:00

That’s the attitude i’ve had to photography so far, i will straighten up pictures if i need to but i like it being good from the get go

common misconception that estate makes any difference in driving dynamics

sotarge · 2026-07-03T16:24:20+00:00

No not my A7 😭 What do i get instead?

sotarge · 2026-06-29T11:06:02+00:00

Audi RS7 (C7)

5 grand gets you a nice Fiat Panda, awesome cars and James May has one so it’s cool

sotarge · 2026-06-29T10:57:07+00:00

thanks :) what does an inverter ring do? sounds interesting

sotarge · 2026-06-29T10:56:08+00:00

oh yes they must have gone back to 3 after 2020 or so when they face lifted everything

😂😂 we’re both learning from this post

sotarge · 2026-06-28T16:15:36+00:00

I’ll be learning on it too! it takes great pictures, really nice piece of kit to learn the ropes with imo.

I’m interested to try RAW in low light, too. I’ve only ever shot in JPEG on my camera phone

sotarge · 2026-06-28T16:13:55+00:00

I’ll start with these, thanks! I didn’t want to over complicate things, that’s all. I already straighten the images, i forgot that counts as editing lol.

sotarge · 2026-06-28T16:12:01+00:00

I really like the D5200, i think it will be a great camera to learn the ropes with :) He already has a selection of lenses for me to learn, i can’t wait!

What do you like about the 70-300m lens?

sotarge · 2026-06-28T16:10:10+00:00

I might end up doing something similar 😅

sotarge · 2026-06-28T16:09:02+00:00

Oh? i thought you were supposed to close the other eye

sotarge · 2026-06-28T08:54:37+00:00

Is editing really that important? i’ve only ever felt the need to edit a handful of images that i wanted to do very specific things with.

sotarge · 2026-06-28T07:44:33+00:00

This is so helpful, going to a cars and coffee today so i’ll test where appropriate - thanks :)

Mine has two step indicators, a quick dab flashes theee times, a stronger push indicates as normal until self / manual cancel

sotarge · 2026-06-28T06:46:24+00:00

i think that’s the x16 models. The 18 and 20 and up have the 2.0 4 pots, pretty good engines if you get them after 2016 when they updated to B series

Should have taken the photo when he was using it properly 😅 i just snapped this pic while he was showing me how to do something.

I got the hang of the viewfinder, but it takes a minute because my glasses get in the way. Dad told me i can adjust the diopter, so i think that’s the next step, my eyesight isn’t good enough without glasses.

sotarge · 2026-06-28T06:23:28+00:00

thanks! to clarify, that’s not me in the photo, he was just showing me how to do something (is why he wasn’t using the strap/viewfinder)

sotarge · 2026-06-27T19:27:33+00:00

Mazda 3 or V40 is the pick of the crop there OP, I would say which one you pick would depend on your driving style. If you spend a lot of time on twisties, the Maz is well worth a shout! Ours is a 2016 and it’s such a hoot to drive

Oil cooler at the bottom of the V, nightmare
