  1. Having owned way too many scopes over my time I did find the Taks by far the best (85, 106) but are the thousands extra worth it... debatable.
  2. RE voice generation. A whole channel if you just want Warhammer lore and David Attenborough telling it to you. as I enjoy both its bliss LOL
  3. Peter Cushing's likeness for Tarkin in Rogue One was in the news recently regarding a court case. https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/disney-faces-lawsuit-for-using-peter-cushings-likeness-for-grand-moff-tarkin-in-rogue-one/article68629402.ece
  4. Energy suppliers love this era be it bitcoin mining or AI generation, they make nice profits.
  5. AFAIK that is going through the courts at the moment, as the AI music generator's data sets are based on copyrighted works.
  6. My second Camera was delivered today.
  7. a dust sheet will be fine inside the house as long as it is already dry and at room temperature to avoid condensation issues.
  8. it was a light source, I'm thinking maybe a helicopter as the path is a bit erratic.

      My APC-s to full frame journey was from a Nikon D7200 to a Nikon Z6ii. Should I have not sold my D7200? - Yes, it would be good to still have it. Does the Z6ii do everything the APC-s did? Yes, and a lot more besides. Can I still use my older lenses with the new (March 2022) camera? Yes- with the  F-mount to Z-mount adapter. Has my photography improved? I'd like to think so and certainly would never admit to it getting worse 😂.

      I don't think you'll have any regrets - even on the basis of the improved low-light (and better noise suppression) capabilities that a full-frame (modern) camera offers.

      Enjoy - hopefully with some clear skies (total cloud covered last night's partial eclipse here!).

      Enjoy it - a 50mm prime gives you plenty of options.

  10. Decided to change the framing... or did I forget to check it...
  11. Its got a bit chilly here in the last few days.
  12. I so want to do this somewhere with a Dark sky ! But from the back of the house will have to do for the moment.
  13. If you're going to get into DSO astrophotography buy the best mount you can afford. If just webcam you can aim lower, get something secondhand maybe but with good resale potential if it's not where you want to go.
  14. I have a constant game going with my Dad, we play a few a week on a phone app.
  15. It's catching up with Gaming, why travel to play chess when you can do it from your armchair?
  16. OK i need a tracking mount!

  17. just unprocessed 10-second JPGs made into an animation. F1.4 ISO800
  18. When is see Vlaiv's replies my brain goes into meltdown, how do you remember all this stuff in such detail, I struggle to remember why I went into the kitchen!!
  19. Sam's Nightlapse with a very quick flash of Aroura, is not very good for Perseid's mind..... which was the primary target, did I mess up her framing?
