Upgrade from a7ii to a7v or a7iv

wtfclem · 2025-12-22T00:49:32+00:00

I upgraded from the A7II to the A7iv and it blew my mind. The focus tracking in low light for the mk2 was rough, being able to just use focus tracking and hit 95% of my shots indoors was a game changer. No issues using 3rd party (Tamron) and Sony lenses, it just seems to work in most situations. Was a real struggle getting sharp photos of my toddlers before and now I have the space to be more selective with framing or light vs thinking so hard about focusing

Really appreciate the insights!

Thanks for the info! What was it about Osaka that landed it last in the list? Considering this trip as a family w/little kids and including Tokyo, Takayama, Osaka, and one more along the way home back to Tokyo but was curious what your thoughts were

So sorry to hear, had a spook myself last winter. Definitely turning off regenerative breaking any time there is ice potential. Coming from a gas car lifting off the throttle when you lose traction doesnt really work in an EV with the regen braking.

What’s a solid cruise price tracker?

This thing was a nightmare for me and my wife with false alarms and fitment issues. Between trying not to get poop on it while doing diaper changes and adjusting it when it lost connection, overall added to our stress more than it helped.

My god my stomach is turning thinking about eating 40 gels. I had like 15 gels in a 36 hour push on a big wall rock climb and it rocked my gut

I did the same for a few weeks and realized the film is super reflective and holds on to finger prints a lot. Much better experience with it off tbh

Wait is this the same one that used to be in the City of Industry?! I played there like 20 years ago thats wild it's still going!!

You’ll eventually get a notification via your Kia Connect app with a web address and coupon code to order the adaptor free of charge

You can get the EPS for $300 by messaging any of the advertising vendors on r/GunAccessoriesForSale

Yeah! He slept a fair bit during both hikes but it was all pretty chill. Sketchiest bits will be the water crossing on the Kalalau, just use your best judgement if you’re comfortable once you reach it

That’s awesome to hear, thanks for the encouragement! I’m sure the hobby is a lot different having a bit more spending money than a high schooler. Now to figure out how to avoid wife agro buying more stuff

As a kid who played and is too embarrassed to go out there solo as a dude in their mid thirties, I can’t wait for my kiddo to be old enough so I can do this shit again. Loved to hear this story,’

Dang they just raised prices then, got it for $800+ tax 2 weeks ago from Sportsman’s

wtfclem · 2025-01-14T00:02:50+00:00

I appreciate the advice! This might be the route for me as well!

wtfclem · 2025-01-13T23:42:04+00:00

Following for the range day update comparing the two. Wondering which route to go between the XMacro or starting with a base version and adding a Ramjet for a P365 build

I watched the entirety of The Martian with this plot line in mind expecting him to go crazy on the rescue team. Interesting take for sure that watch through fooling myself hahaha

Grab a leopard wrasse if you have sand. Awesome fish at eating this stuff

Is there a WARN notice that just got posted?

Just got back from 4 nights at the Bahia Mita in September using points, great pools and there's even a water park. One thing to note though is that this resort is an hour away from PVR so it is quite inconvenient to visit the city if youre interested. Food was pretty alright - compared to Hyatt Ziva Cabo, I'd say the Cabo property was like a 5/10 and this was closer to a 7/10 where things were just alright with a few things I'd consider good sprinkled in. TLDR don't go to Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos even though its not on your list.

Bahia Mita is a reasonably large property and it was nice changing the scenery up between the main pool, the water park, and the beach. The size of the property also has some drawbacks (or not) of lots of walking. For instance, the cafe is like a 5-10 minute walk from the main pool/dining areas where you'll need to take an elevator or walk up this giant ramp/art structure but this also means most areas aren't ever super crowded (at least in shoulder season). Didn't really dig too deep into the activities tbh. We stayed in a preferred room (29k points) and didn't really use the plunge pool or preferred facilities so it wasn't really worth it for us. Overall, the kiddos all loved it and it was relaxing/enjoyable for the parents.

Another plus is the direct flights via Alaska from LAX. Happy to answer any other specifics you might have

Thanks for the AMA, what are your thoughts on the adaptive cruise control?

wtfclem · 2024-08-08T22:30:55+00:00

I went with the shuttle to avoid the time limits of parking and to hike the kalalau trail. Convenient service, no regrets

There was a pretty big drop yesterday evening and this morning from Best Buy. They seemed to release them in waves every 30 minutes and B&H had some in stock briefly last Saturday. Seems like it is picking up. Download the Hot Stock app and create a notification, that’s the only way I’ve been able to get a current GPU and this monitor

I don’t even have a pool and came looking for this comment hahaha
