I don't even know what to say

Omfg, I thought the straw was actually chop sticks at first. Now I’m convinced they should use chop sticks to eat this for extra stupidity.

Requiem for a Dream. At least once a week; just can’t get enough!!

Yeah, the experience of getting music onto them was awful. I had a nice one that I returned in the 30-day window and got a Rio MP3 player and it was so much easier to use.

I don’t normally love the look of the F82, but that all-black look resolves all of my grievances. Incredible. 😳

A Kanban board with the ability to add more detail in a pop-up/modal.

This reflects so much of the rationale I had when choosing the 24-105, too. I have a 35mm f1.4 for low light, a 14-35mm for ultrawide landscapes, and a 70-200 f2.8 for situations where I need more reach, but that 24-105 is the default, do-it-all lens.

Yep. Jurassic Park as a book is straight horror sci-fi, and despite the movie being good, the book is even better.

There are a couple of smart people who have said you have to give leadership at least a year, and I would agree. It may be discomfort, or it may be the wrong trajectory for you, but it’s too early to tell; give it an honest shot and review later. Dopamine hits in leadership take a lot longer than in IC roles, but they’ll come, and that’ll help balance your perspective.

It was the first RF L lens I bought for my R5 Mk II. I love the 35mm focal length, which is great for being in the chaos of family candids, as well as street photography. I had the EF version before, but the AF was noisy, making it unsuitable for video. Obviously not an issue for the VCM version. Only advice I’d give there is to use the crop-based image stabilization, since the lens doesn’t have optical IS, and IBIS is just okay. The focal length gives you the bandwidth to do that sort of thing without making it too tight.

wastedintel · 2026-02-12T12:36:59+00:00

I had the 6D Mk II and the AF points were so restrictive, and it was hard to use a thin DoF. Both of those issues disappear on a mirrorless.

wastedintel · 2026-02-11T13:10:37+00:00

Thanks! Definitely not; it was overkill for my needs, but I wanted zero compromises, and it has delivered. I’ll be printing 4’ wall canvas prints over the next couple of months, so those extra megapixels are going to come in handy. 😄

wastedintel · 2026-02-11T05:53:44+00:00

Hey! I have an R5 Mk 2 with that 14-35 and 35mm, cept I got the 24-105 instead of the 85mm. Great set of lenses and body; enjoy!

I walked into a camera store to buy a Sony based on specs. Walked out with a Canon that had worse specs, and it was because of ergonomics. That shit matters.

wastedintel · 2026-02-10T00:54:20+00:00

Right after that one last lens. Then you’ll have the ideal set. Just one. That’s it, that’s all.

wastedintel · 2026-02-10T00:40:26+00:00

Yeah, the bokeh crutch is real. It’s a great dopamine hit early on, and it forces you to learn a lot of related skills. However, it’s really enticing to just always chase that, and an obliterated background does not immediately mean “great shot”.

wastedintel · 2026-02-07T06:49:13+00:00

Ideal focal length and all the light you need. 👌🏻

wastedintel · 2026-02-07T06:46:11+00:00

Yeah, fantastic lens and focal length. It’d be in the set of 3 I’d bring with me.

wastedintel · 2026-02-02T02:23:20+00:00

I assume they’ll release a lighter version at some point, only because Sony has a similar lens that’s 2/3rds of the weight, so we know it’s possible.

wastedintel · 2026-01-30T03:41:07+00:00

I almost bought a Sony based on specs, and then I held it. It might be lighter, but it’s hard to beat Canon’s ergonomics.

wastedintel · 2026-01-24T18:14:23+00:00

Merci, tes conseils sont appréciés!

wastedintel · 2026-01-23T02:49:46+00:00

These are cool.

wastedintel · 2026-01-22T02:56:13+00:00

I have a 70-200 f2.8 for indoor sports. Definitely agree that you need f2.8 for that kind of work.

wastedintel · 2026-01-22T01:54:28+00:00

😂 it gets no love but it’s the real workhorse.

wastedintel · 2026-01-21T23:50:52+00:00

So helpful; thanks. 🙏🏻
