I liked it. Right from the off it wore it's Seven Samurai influences on it's sleeve and ran with it. Much like the series itself which is essentially doing this

Oh ! I thought that was the finale ! It’s having an Xmas break then ?

Wasn’t really sure where they were going with the finale until

I wouldn’t get your hopes up as the previous season hasn’t hit the UK yet either

It's something you have to sort in post. Even lab scans will do that - try to lift exposure and/or shadows to try to resolve detail that isn't there. Normally I'll just crank the blacks down until they're clipping

Jungle Cruise - Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt - Based on Disneyland Ride

I’m sure they’re trying their best to channel the African Queen in that trailer also -
@Fargo Buy it second hand. CEX in particular seem to be awash with A6000 at the moment and offer a two year guarantee with them. You can get one with the 16-50 for £290. Alternatively the A6300 with 16-50 is £530 second hand

@Loik V credern You ok hun?

There appears to be a fair few Blue Note vinyl re-releases recently and picked this up today. Partly for the amazing cover, but mostly because I didn't really know Herbie outside of Headhunters and Rockit. Needless to say this is great

Disagree, I think it's fine. It sounds like a 90's af film camera when it focuses, but apart from that I have no issues with it.

Early 80s home computer "homages" to classic arcade games

Pfft Atari 400/800 please. The C64 version was a port. Loved Dropzone. -
I like those. Funnily enough was just browsing David Burnett's Holga photos which i've not seen before. https://www.davidburnett.com/gallery.html?gallery=Holga+Eye&folio=Galleries&vimeoUserID=&vimeoAlbumID=#/0

The ZX Spectrum Next - Kickstarter Now Live! : Now Funded!
Ste_S replied to Robo_1's topic in Retro & Arcade Gaming
Or alternatively they've run out of money and the keyboard is just a smoke screen for the delay whilst they try to get additional funding to enable them to release it. -
Not knowing much about it . Regardless, looks amazing.

@Scratchy Bollock It depends I guess ? I've never really progressed beyond phone apps when needing to meter for long(er) exposures, and that was long before I learnt about reciprocity failure charts. This was phone metered

I'd definitely go down the second hand route if you were considering Fuji on a budget. I buy all my cameras second hand, with MPB and CEX both been good on returns when the cameras have turned out to be duds. Ffordes (I've bought a lot of film camera gear from them, recommended) have a X-T20 with 16-50 for £500 https://www.ffordes.com/p/SOR-18-021278/mirrorless-fuji-x/x-t20-16-50mm-xc-silver

Just as a counter point I'd go and have a look in your local Jessops, John Lewis etc. Half the thing for me with cameras is the ergonomics. Sony A6000 is a solid choice. At the cheaper end there's the Panasonic GX80, at the more expensive end there's Fuji's like the X-E and X-T series. Going second hand from somewhere like MPB, CEX, Ffordes, LCE (where you get a guarantee) opens up more options. Edit - Given that you mention street photography, I'd recommend a second hand Fuji (X-E1, X-E2. X-T1, X-T10, X-T20) as they offer minimum shutter speed on Auto-ISO. It's invaluable for street, and is something Panasonic, Olympus or Sony don't offer in that price range.

Pacific Rim: Uprising / Independence Day: Resurgence; for similar reasons. Star Wars: The Phantom Menace / The Last Jedi The Hobbit films (although I've subsequently warmed to them, slightly).

The ZX Spectrum Next - Kickstarter Now Live! : Now Funded!
Ste_S replied to Robo_1's topic in Retro & Arcade Gaming
Are they trying to launch a second kickstarter before the first has delivered machines to backers ? If so it wouldn't be because they've spent all the original kickstarter money and need more cash to manufacture the original machines would it ? -
Avatar 4/5 Not watched it an age and holds up surprisingly well. Even feels kinda relevant given what's happening in Brazil

Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker (December 2019)
Ste_S replied to Jug McKenzie's topic in Film, TV & Radio
There's also Finn's parentage mystery box. Will they be dumb enough to make him Lando's son ? -
It helps that frying pans keep getting used as weapons. At times it reminds me of a daytime soap, but with really good fight scenes. I love it.
