I’m not sure if I am an odd case or if there are a lot of people in my position, but I’ve got a decent gaming PC in another room but have HDMI cables run between rooms, so I can use it to play games thru my TV and surround sound in the living room. BUT every time I want to do so, I have to fuss with display and sound…

Santa Barbara and former Ventura resident checking in; 33 beyond Ojai is an absolute delight. Watch out for motorcycles and enjoy the ride!

4. If people don’t seem to understand what you’re saying in English, repeat yourself louder, slower, and with “-o” added to the end of each word. The locals will appreciate your efforts to communicate on their level.

I love them so much. They're too expensive to use for everything but I had a couple of really awkward joints in my crawl space that I was killing myself trying to solder correctly without lighting my floor joists on fire; picked up a couple of the shark bite fittings and I was done in minutes. No leaks yet and I've…

I recently bought the mkIII and I’m constantly trying to find excuses to use it. It goes everywhere with me and it’s always ready for action. It’s so small it’s not really taken seriously but in your hand it feels like a serious tool and the results are unquestionably great.

The white moon is many times brighter than the eclipsed “blood” moon so your wife’s camera was not working nearly as hard to take that shot.

Portland is what happens when the internet spills over into the real world.

Now show me a picture of a regular door that you can open in ANY rain, vertical or driving, that isn’t still going to let a significant amount of water in. It’s a car interior, it’s not the end of the world if it gets rain on it for 30 seconds or so. Your S-Class or Bentley would get wet too. Electric cars clean up…

This reminds me of the way every rich person couldn’t stop talking about how amazing and luxurious and spacious their Prius was. They just hadn’t been in a compact car for 30 years and were amazed that this tiny little thing wasn’t really as horrible as the compact Japanese cars of the 80s.

it LOOKS every bit as opulent as a Bayliner ski boat. maybe it feels different in person when the Tesla forcefield takes over your senses.

I can’t see anything that makes me think they did any visual design work outside of taking the side view of a Model S and stretching it vertically. Maybe it’s more impressive in person.

Tee-Hee. Oh, You!

Even in the relatively wide view you can see that there’s a channel around the weatherstripping for the door opening; any water that flows off the roof is going to get channeled around. Leaving you with whatever falls into the car, which is again not going to be any worse than a traditional door, and at least offers…

Of all the things to complain about, you pick the one situation where a gullwing door is almost certainly BETTER than a traditional door?

I actually sold my old Fuji X10 (not X100, I couldn’t afford it at the time!) to buy my RX100... the Fuji, when it hit just right, it was ON. Beautiful colors, those fuji film simulations, it was the mini X100 I always wanted. But it only hit the shot right about 30% of the time. Otherwise I was constantly fighting…

I think that’s sort of the point. A good quality P&S is almost never going to be someone’s only camera. It’s going to be purchased by someone who already has a mid-to-high end DSLR or mirrorless camera and wants another camera that’s more portable/subtle that will still produce satisfying results.

That was my travel purchase too. I spent months laboring over the decision and the only cameras that can honestly compete are the Panasonic LX100 and the Fuji X100 series. The Fuji is a good bit more expensive, larger, and fixed focal length (but I do love those colors) ... the LX100 handles better but is completely…

That’s the beauty of it, most of the upgrades between generations aren’t make-or-break changes. If you absolutely NEED 4k video then you’re probably OK with spending $900+ for the mkIV and if you need an EVF then you’ll cough up for the mkIII, but if you don’t care much about either of those things, the I and II are…

For low light / weird light situations, for difficult focus situations, for pictures that you want to keep/archive/print and not just share on social media. I agree that most low-end P&S cameras are basically no better than a good smartphone, but a top quality P&S is the tool for photographers who don’t want to have…
