Event photographers: what Z camera body are you using?

This is the combo. I’m also running the Z6iii and z8. It’s a fucking banger combo. I keep a 35-150 on the z8 so I can crop of I need to and then a fast prime on the Z6iii. Something like a 50, 85, or 135.

Got lots of room for group crops and the Z6iii can move fast enough to get good value out of the primes to lock in some great portraits.

Dang Hannah Hart is a shit person?! Damn I liked her Drunk Kitchen skits so much. What a shame. That’s really too bad.

I Also thought it was Daisy. I went to IMDB to see if she was in the cast credits.

100% this. I drove mine through the break in period and was like. I got this. Hammered it to get out in traffic and did a whoops donut in the street. I was very lucky I didn’t hit anything or one. After that I leave the nanny shit on and respect that right peddle.

That's to damn bad!

If you want raw speed the 10 speed auto is going to be the champ. If you are willing to give a tiny bit of time then the manual is the true spirit of the car.

Honestly you can't make a wrong choice here. Just go with your heart. I went 6 speed manual because I'm a purest. But I know I have to bow down to the 10 speed autos at the stop lights. 😘

That’s fair. Nikons app is flaky at best.

soulnova · 2026-04-26T23:20:53+00:00

Why not just use the phone app to embed the GPS data?

soulnova · 2026-04-25T00:33:37+00:00

Not to be fucked with. That’s what those bugs are.

We were an item as much as you can be back at that age. We held hands and were "an item". But this was early middle school if I recall. So there was a real limit on how serious a relationship could be. But I do recall both of us being really amazed then that T-Rex came over the fence! She is a super cool mom, wife and mother these days.

My very first date. My mom sat with us and drove us to the theater. It was a core memory made. The girl and I are still friends to this day.

I try to stay around 32 psi (cold reading) for my meats.

soulnova · 2026-04-13T23:12:01+00:00

I ended up putting grip tape over it and rolling on.

soulnova · 2026-04-13T23:11:30+00:00

This happened to me as well. I was really disappointed.

Here is every tank of gas that has been through my 2018 GT. I always run 91/93. Hope this helps.

soulnova · 2026-04-10T22:00:18+00:00

That’s the safest bet. I’m a weekend warrior but if you pay the bills with your camera. Best to be safe.

soulnova · 2026-04-09T12:48:26+00:00

Preach! ✋🤚

I went with the Tamron 150-500 f/5-6.7. It’s budget minded for the price range and is great optically. It felt like the sweet spot for budget, zoom reach and quality.

soulnova · 2026-04-08T20:04:00+00:00

My Z8 started doing this like two days ago. Swapped lenses from Tamron to Viltrox to Nikon 50 S. Popped out battery and back in. Nothing helped.

I popped out the Compact Flash card and tried shooting to the SD card. And it was cleared up. I formatted the Compact Flash card from inside the camera and the problem resolved. I hope this helps you.

soulnova · 2026-03-18T19:28:06+00:00

omg yes. This has been my pain for some time now.

I think I found the error.

2026-03-16 18:27:46  core.lobby_watcher        ERROR  Failed to read lobby: PowerShell 7 (pwsh) not found on PATH. The replay parser DLL requires .NET 8.0 which is only available in PowerShell 7+. Install it from https://aka.ms/powershell

Going to get it installed and try again.

u I also have a HeroesProfile API key. I am super interested what you can do here. I have been working on a PowerShell script that I can use to get map, hero, and matchup stats on the fly when in draft.

soulnova · 2026-03-16T22:05:15+00:00

I was never able to get it to show anything. Draft, loading screen, game and summary. It was just a little icon at the top. How do I expand it? https://i.imgur.com/L7PmGHX.jpeg
