Unless it's a cake or similar where accuracy is vital, just understanding how to balance flavours and not overcook things will get you 80% of the way there with most food/meals

As the saying goes, cooking is art, baking is science.
Like, with cooking you have a lot of room to mess with things
Baking? Screw up the important ratios or cook time and it simply wont work.

Dishes I do really good at: Dahl & Larb Gai
It's hard to find restaurants that do good larb gai

I love cooking

what this mean
If scene has strong shadow and light that film is easy to overexpose or underexpose part of it
foggy steppe
Also err towards overexposing
errant linden
ive used a disposable like twice

I generally expose cheap negatives 1 stop brighter than metered
Negative film has much greater highlight dynamic range than shadows

why not just get a gfx at 8k <:borrysit:1130560534178189342>

yeah i can get an alright one for 50k
timber spruce
a cool million here because aus housing prices make sense
i know

damn 50k

makes sense haha

since defrent economy and stuff
and the houses keep getting up
no as fast as the west tho

Phase ones are for like the millionaires there only then

One day large format digital will be accessible

One day large format digital will be accessible
yeah when the tech for the lenses get better
imagine a lens that covers large format digital
but like $1k
foggy steppe
I wouldn't mind using old large format lenses if lf digital became a thing
Those lenses are pretty solid
static ruin
but like $1k
It could be done now for $1k, it's just not going to perform well
timber spruce
I wouldn't mind using old large format lenses if lf digital became a thing
LF might be a nesh thing in the next 15? years
maybe
static ruin
Doubt it
timber spruce
tho for the next decade i'm more intersted in MF sensors
foggy steppe
It'd take a pretty hefty leap in sensor production
timber spruce
i'm really going the larger the sensor the better
static ruin
Even if the sensors become cheaper, the lenses aren't going to drop in price
foggy steppe
Lf starts at like 16x the size of ff or something after all lol
timber spruce
Lf starts at like 16x the size of ff or something after all lol
yeah it would be a supre nesh thing like how the phase none is rn
since it's hard to make and will cost my whole house to get one
foggy steppe
I'm sort of ignoring gfx and waiting for phase one style sensors to become semi accessible
timber spruce
i want a gfx since nothing that i do is fast
foggy steppe
Gfx is difficult to justify over ff with only .8 crop
timber spruce
i mean honestly even if it is 100 ii still gonna be faster than my 5dm2 
foggy steppe
44 vs 35

it's an expensive toy

r5 and a7r5 is gfx/x2d for sensible people lol
timber spruce
r5 and a7r5 is gfx/x2d for sensible people lol
true
i still want a gfx tho
but meh
foggy steppe
a7r5 is even the same pixel density as gfx 100 i think
timber spruce
can wait for the 100 ii to get as cheap as the 100
timber spruce
a7r5 is even the same pixel density as gfx 100 i think
i mean x-t4 is more pixel density than the a7rv iirc
foggy steppe
xt5 has the pixel density equiv of 90mp ff lmao
timber spruce
oh i meant that
yea
i don't really care about pixel density as much as pixel size
like kinda wanna balance between the two
tho it doesn't really matter when you're taking long exposures
also ibis exists
timber spruce
tho it doesn't really matter when you're taking long exposures
on a small scale
foggy steppe
yeah gfx 100ii seems to be pretty damn good even considering how high its res is
timber spruce
yea
that and the 90mm the 50-55mm equiv
since fuck me if i don't get a good 50mm
i really like 50mm
it's pretty 
timber spruce
i think so as well
yea it's just the 110 is just unfunny how sharp it is
one other lens i want is the RF 50mm
the f1.2 L
heard really great shit about it
foggy steppe
oh yeah the rf 50 and 85 1.2s are meant to be fuckin perfectly sharp too
the 85 1.2 on the r5 is probs pretty damn similar to the 110 f2 on gfx lol
timber spruce
the 85 1.2 on the r5 is probs pretty damn similar to the 110 f2 on gfx lol
yep
rf 50 1.2 is like the sharpest 50mm i've seen
idk if the GM 50mm is sharper or not
timber spruce
the 85 1.2 on the r5 is probs pretty damn similar to the 110 f2 on gfx lol
and the thing is they're still as sharp at 1.2
which is another rant i've
foggy steppe
i think the rf primes are sharper when i checked charts
tho the gm is already like perfectly sharp visually
85 1.2 at 1.2 is insane
timber spruce
people buying really fast cheap lenses for the apature but the sharpness is shit
fleet edge
tho the gm is already like perfectly sharp visually
If canon do a big balls and release a 90/100MP R5 we gonna need that razor sharpness haha

I have them
bring the 50mm 1.2 and i will come to europe 100%

even sony and nikon dont want to give full support lol

canon was like theyll consider releasing it for lenses they dont plan to make
but theres a patent for fucking everything in rf

wait nvm i need that for events
timber spruce
thats like $30k of lenses lol
half a phase none
foggy steppe
wouldnt be sure about 28-70 on like a 60+mp cam

honestly for a lens like that idc about the sharpness as much as i care about having good low light preformance

Good on 24
foggy steppe
24-70 instead probs
timber spruce
yeah that's what i'm thinking
foggy steppe
use the extra money to save towards a 50 1.2

I use them because they're really good for events
