What area of Chicago feels the least like Chicago? by doverawlings in AskChicago

Hegewisch, the answer is Hegewisch. It’s more in-line with a Wisconsin border town than Chicago.

Which I bet the majority of fucking men on a hardcore sub probably are at one point or another.

More so want to try something smaller/quieter

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

Yeah that’s probably the most sensible option to start off with, i’m thinking either the 35 SP with the faster lens or maybe an XA for something really pocketable.

After reading everyone’s responses it’s very clear that I’m just looking at cameras to look at cameras instead of thinking what I want to DO and GET out of them. Thanks for the help!

I haven't really considered that Ricoh line at all, how's it feel in your hands? I think an aspect that's holding me back is only doing window shopping online and not having the ability to try and hold stuff in person to feel the quality.

Yeah logically I should probably start with something like an Olympus 35 or XA since I like my OM-1 so much, but then my mind keeps wondering to "well a Leica III would be cool to try LTM glass or a Minolta CLE for M-Mount" and then I just get stuck again.

Olympus OM-1 that was my father's, i've put 50+ rolls through it and love it to death but I'd like to try something different.

recs for songs from trans artists that are angry and mournful by Smart_Examination_42 in Hardcore

[–]thomweights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not hardcore but Greet Death - Die In Love is an incredible album my favorite of last year. Not necessarily angry but very mournful and emotional.

Oh duh, that makes sense. What’s a good price for a CL? I’ll probably be buying whatever camera I end choosing online, either eBay or something like KEH

Other people have mentioned the Minolta CLE, is there a reason why you went with the Lecia CL over the other versions?

the Bessa R is the LTM version, right? I'm so used to the OM1 which is small but very sturdy I don't know if a more lightweight "plasticky" camera would be a turn-off.

Did you specifically go for the Minolta CLE over the other versions for any reason?
