Concerts! I already have the 50mm 1.4, 85 1.4 and 135 1.8 and would be happy to trade off the aperture there for one lens to save myself…

Not sure if I misunderstood but F2 to F2.8 is not 1/3 stop, it is a full stop of light. Its the same sized jump in light as it would be…

Not necessarily just a solo body thing, could complement it nicely with something like the 28-70 F2 or 300 F2.8. Would be more about…

Would be nice to get more affordable options but a lens like this is absolutely a niche and priced accordingly, especially at release when…

In case anyone is concerned about this being slightly oversize, no airline is actually going to care about the exact dimensions of checked…

Yup I hate the way these cards are advertised because most people are never going to see the advertised speeds or even see the difference…

UHS-II alone isn't good enough despite support for speeds well in excess of these cards, you need a reader that specifically supports these…

Just to add to this most devices aren't going to see the advertised speed, its not a matter of the processor being capable or the storage…

Different purpose, ideally you would not really be cross shopping these cards, you either need one or the other. This is an endurance card…

Yeah that's why I said 'some' other suitcases instead of 'all'. The Samsonite 73H series for example, lets you lock the zippers regardless…

I wouldn't be too worried about a large bag being a few cm oversize as no airline is actually going to enforce that. As long as it isn't…

One comparison here Canned air: https://youtu.be/X_ncYXk1cP4?si=vbO7aBMXM-OgVUa0&t=880 Wolfbox:…

This isn't really any significant change in price, this is about the standard sale price for this model since December…

I don't know anything about this one but that looks like an alternative not a replacement, it is tiny and designated MF50.

I already have a datavac and bought this, much prefer using the Wolfbox for the same reason.

CPU of the Pixel phones also has another downside - they are significantly underpowered so its difficult to do any intensive tasks e.g.…

Good price for UHS-II V60 cards, mistook it for V30 UHS-I variant.

This card performs no better in camera than the cheaper V30 Samsung EVO Plus/Select microSDs anyway.

They've almost always checked to sight my items and while in line I regularly see them ask others to produce the items as well. Would not…

Write speed over 100 isn't going to matter for these cards in most devices anyway. Most cameras aren't going to support the advertised…

Coupon can void cashback. It may track initially but Sony can reject it 1-2 months down the line when they reconcile it.

I don't trust SanDisk. Issues with Sandisk SSDs reported by numerous tech journalists:…

Also potential downtime between shots swapping lenses or bodies... I've shot a concert before this was released using three bodies with a…

I've got both and the Wolfbox is noticeably stronger. I didn't have any issues with the Opolar though, I just wanted to get away from the…

On this point just commenting in case it helps anyone that is looking at more intensive use cases. On my Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Lightroom is…

In most devices though it doesn't really matter as they are bottlenecked to 100MB/s due to UHS-I limits. The only reliable scenario for…

I've been told that the new NVIDIA 50XX cards support it now so not a problem for my next PC anymore but basically for people with cameras…

I actually didn't know that! Haven't been keeping up with news there because I wasn't even going to bother trying to get anything near…

Yup, I am running AMD on both my laptop and desktop but if things don't change I will be switching to Intel on my next build for 4:2:2 10…

Yeah F2 from F2.8 is a full stop like f2.8 vs F4 would be.
