If your camera supports it you can try registering faces to prioritize the auto focus for a few of the standout players.

If your camera doesn’t have any ibis and you’re shooting with a crop at 200mm I think maybe you’re right that 1600 isn’t quite fast enough. You could go higher or maybe try out a monopod to help stabilize.

There should be a tracking AF option where you can select a focus point and then let the camera track the point but your camera may not have that option either.

If no tracking AF try using a larger point. My camera calls it zone AF where it focuses on one of the 9 boxes made by the lines of thirds.

It could also be a “get good” situation where you just have to anticipate a little of what might happen and try to be ready for shots a few seconds ahead of time. Practice makes perfect after all.

I hope that maybe this helps!

Im so confused why this wouldn’t work and I didn’t see anywhere in the article the actual reason. Can anyone explain it better? Can you not just play a vr video file? Is it blocking the sites? I’m just confused.

I really like his videos but those past ones about the pinball machines would put me to sleep so fast! I’m glad he’s doing another photography topic!

I saw Bald and Bankrupts short series on the Darien Gap and it looked insane. Huge respect to these people putting themselves through that for a chance at a better life.

Does anyone know any alternatives to their products? I’m assuming they’re about to get much worse in the name of corporate profits :(

I’m kinda torn on this thing. I watched the LTT Wanshow segment about it and it seems cool. But also seems very gimmicky or like the entire thing could have been just an app. It will definitely be interesting to see how this technology grows and changes in the coming years if it really takes off. I know they sold out a bunch of their preorders so that might mean good things to come.

Depending how much you want to play around with it, you may be able to configure something with Shortcuts to get the desired behavior. I have something similar set up for screen brightness and media volume based on what WiFi networks I’m connected to or places I’m at.

Is this any different than EPA rated MPG listed on vehicles? Obviously their quoted range is an absolute best case scenario. Still fun to meme on the cyber truck though.

Wouldn’t that be great! Unfortunately,I feel like the us will never get to the point of having any decent socialized healthcare. :(

What sort of argument is this? Obviously if the net catches a fucking person then yeah good job nets. But the root of the problem isn’t people falling off the bridge on accident. It’s people with unaddressed mental health issues wanting to kill themselves. How about we address the mental health aspects instead of just making them jump off a different bridge or shoot themselves or any other of a million different ways to kill yourself. If I really wanna die a net on that specific bridge won’t stop me I’ll just find another way.

What idiots are downvoting this? The problem isn’t that the bridge is too high. It’s that the people who have suicided there in the past had no access to mental health care. You downvoters are not looking at the root of the problem. You really think all the suicidal people are just gonna magically cure themselves because they installed nets?

The money spent on not only the nets and installing them etc but also the lawmakers that wasted their time coming up with this idea and meeting about it etc etc is ALL a waste of public funds and could have been put to much better use towards the actual problem.

This is just Americans patting themselves on the back pretending they’re doing a good job 👏🏼

 

Hi everyone! I just found out about this sub and am happy to be subscribed. Just wondering if you all watch YouTube videos on the subject. I really like Adrian’s Digital Basement and UsagiElectric. I’m very interested in the vacuum tube computers from the latter and trying to figure out how those work!

Does anyone have any recommendations for other channels with a similar sort of educational-ish style? I like being not told exactly wtf is happening with the electronics but the diagnostic and repair and explanation parts are the best!

Anyways thanks for reading!

I really enjoyed /r/photocritique (I believe that's what it was - don't wanna open reddit!) community and have not yet found a good alternative on the fediverse. Does anyone know of a place? Or where/how could I learn how to create a place for photography critique and guidance?
