… just venting because I watch too many Youtube videos where they complain about the autofocus

Yeah, I don’t watch many of them. Wish they figured out that one better. My bigger gripe is when they lean away from the mic. Video is hard enough to edit, audio even more so.

Is it just guessing? 😅

Pretty much, you can either do a wide angle and crop the result, or try for where you think you see the most of them. Overall it’s still guessing for the highest quality ones

Depending on how much of the explosion(s) you want recorded, make your exposure time longer and adjust aperture depending on how much light you want in each shot (smaller for longer exposures)

When I did photography, I used 1-5 second exposures and adjusted aperture if it was too bright or dark (don’t remember the aperture settings)

A tripod or some method to keep the camera still is a given for longer exposures.

It can be done with SLRs, DSLRs, and advanced camera apps, but the quality of the device and internal camera hardware with phones vary so, professionally I’d recommend an SLR or DSLR camera, unless you have a phone that’s great for those kind of photos

Edit add: ISO setting should almost always be low (250 or less is best) to prevent noise

Lock focus because auto focus for this kind of thing will almost always result in blurry photos

Disaster

Oh no, my work won’t be scrapable by AI, whatever shall I do /s ¯⁠\⁠(⁠◉⁠‿⁠◉⁠)⁠/⁠¯

Not to mention the new flagpoles at the white House, both measuring 88 feet.

Yes, it sounds like it’s not real, but you’ll find it easy in a search

This take is so broke your soul probably has socks with holes in them

I worked there before a few years ago so I may be a little inaccurate, but somewhere in the realm of 18"-22".

They are massive, definitely bigger than your usual pizza delivery box/bag

If I ate 1/4 of my pizza and my gf ate 1/1 of her pizza, but the hidden context is mine is from Costco and hers is from mod, who ate more pizza

In short, transphobes see being trans as so laughably stupid that they “identify as an attack helicopter”

Anyway, I like to find ways to include the flags of communities I’m part of within the thread count I have (used to be 8, now it’s 16) and it’s a fun challenge

Sounds like the horns for class war are being blown very loudly

I got the bian, I just need the Les :3

I understood your goal. Many people see the votes as expressing their opinion, and I don’t fault them for that, but it does make for less reach when it’s not understood as an engagement/reach tool

I’m already 1.5 of those

That button will get smashed into eternity until I get the full 2/2

I will up vote, not because I like it, but because more upvotes means it’ll get on the “hot” list which will mean more people will see it and be disgusted by it, like myself.

I usually turn to shattered pixel dungeon

No Trump stickers, I give it a pass

For my past 3 phones I just bought straight from the manufacturer.

I recommend it and hope phone unlocking gets pushed through despite their whining

Im with you, he lacks presentation (megamind reference)

Relax for the first time in my life
