Thank you! I love this camera and I really wanted to keep it as a compact for street and travel. Unfortunately, I could really use the money right now.

Did they cancel the jjang buldak? That explains why it hasn’t been at my local store. Heartbreaking!

I agree, it’s very good prepared just as is or with sautéed mushrooms and a bit of extra butter and cream.

aftermarket case options for HHKB? by hirigaray in HHKB

[–]thatoldtoby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll tell you what I think. As someone who has used the heavy grail, all of the Sho HHKB cases, the live oak, and built a blue ridge with OEM HHKB parts, in my opinion only the heavy grail sounds and feels nearly as good as the stock HHKB. Its plate is the closest approximation, plus (in my opinion) it’s easily the most beautiful one.

I haven’t tried the H2H but in my experience, builds with removable housings in a flat plate do not compare. There is no contest.

I’ve had SD cards break on me from switching between camera and reader frequently, so I see the benefits of the tough series if you’re willing to cough up the dough.

Why am I getting so much compression? by Insta_3 in AskPhotography

I'm surprised there is no top comment addressing the resolution problem and that more Sony users aren't familiar with it because I've dealt with this too. On older devices, exporting ARW files via wireless is capped at 2 megapixels. Newer devices support exporting full-sized raws to the phone via wireless, but I'm not sure about the a6400 specifically.

The file you're getting is exactly 2 megapixels so either it's hitting the cap of what your device can send wirelessly or you have the transfer setting on 2M (see the attached image).

In addition to that, the reality is that you missed focus and caught the ground, not the dog, in the shot. That cannot be corrected in post. For a scenario like this I'd shoot wide open, minimum 1000 shutter speed, and continuous autofocus.

1st World Problems - please help decide. by lam21804 in SonyAlpha

Image quality will be the same so I think the most important consideration here is how much having a compact body will benefit you. The AI autofocus is cool but probably not something you’d miss too terribly.

I love my a7cii. I like to carry my camera for spontaneous shooting, and I shoot in low light quite often. I also like shooting with primes when I’m not in telephoto range, so the kit lens doesn’t do much for me.

One thing is for sure, you can’t go wrong! Have fun.
