  • My crop sensor is also able to use Canon’s full frame lenses. I don’t think Sony or Nikon do that.

    The sony E-mount works for both APS-C and Full-frame. You can even mount an APS-C lens onto a full-frame, but you are down to 10-12mpx on the a7, I think.

    If you rock bigger hands, you may want to go for a slightly bigger body for comfort.

    My a6100 grip is serviceable with my medium hands. Some fancier a6x00 cameras use the newer and bigger battery, which improves the grip size.
    I also have an a5100 and the grip is way too small, but you can hold it like a waist-level TLR camera and it’s okay. It’s missing a viewfinder, which is absolutely terrible. It’s my e-mount backup camera that came as a lens cap for a lens I bought.

    For reference, I use my a6100 with a 70-350mm or with the 18-135mm. I sometimes slap on the sigma 30mm for low-light.
    I’m happy with it, and I think even a a6000 would have been perfect for me (the a6100 is my starter camera from 3 years ago).









  • I actually bought myself an ergonomic keyboard months ago that does support tilting it in the other direction, with a curved wrist rest to help.
    It works quite well, but I also like the concept of the one I built.
    I’s like to tilt it to make it more comfortable, if it turns out I like using it.
    From what I understand, you can have all the keys you need on a keyboard like that, but it requires muscle memory of key combinations, and I do not know yet if that’s for me. I’d have liked to start on a board with more keys, but it’s expensive just to see if it suits me or not.
    I can also see it being useful in VR while playing games like Elite Dangerous, to have one half per arm on a chair with a HOTAS setup.
    It’s definitely a niche thing.

    edit: just read your other comments and I think you should chill a bit. I see these things as specialized and personalized computer input interfaces. People are different and input methods should be too. It might not fit your bill, but it might for some people here or maybe they like experimenting to find what works for them.
    I don’t want this to become a VI vs Emacs flame war analogy.









  • I’ve had some thoughts pop up when reading the post and your reply.
    So beehaw said this may be temporary… But I can’t help to wonder what that means.
    Let’s say lemmy.world closes registrations and beehaw refederates. Are they going to be flooded with all the posts that happened while we were defederated?
    The amount of stuff suddenly appearing everywhere would be unmoderatable, and if I’m not wrong, it also kind of makes defederation permanent if it goes on for too long. Who would want to refederate instances and tsunami their own with things they don’t know about?




  • Sorry for using acronyms; I hate when people do that and I just did…

    MOC stands for Map of Content if I’m not wrong.
    From what I understand, MOCs are notes that contain a table of contents that links to other notes.
    You can open such a note to quickly access other notes by clicking on the links in it.

    LYT stands for Linking Your Thinking.
    It’s just marketing for Nick Milo’s way of organizing obsidian vaults.
    He’s an entrepreneur that teaches his organizational techniques.
    He uses MOCs among other things, but I’m having trouble understanding his implementation.
