| 15:47.45 | youtah | BigBen212, you like that last shot? |
| 15:47.51 | youtah | I am so happy with this new Nikon D850 |
| 15:47.58 | BigBen212 | yes |
| 15:47.58 | youtah | it is night and day different from my Nikon D800 |
| 15:48.17 | youtah | and it works with my Nikkor 24-70 SO MUCH BETTER |
| 15:48.24 | BigBen212 | hah, I have long since given up on being up to date on camera tech |
| 15:48.37 | BigBen212 | Still going with my EOS 40D |
| 15:48.50 | youtah | I only really keep up on the high end cameras |
| 15:49.00 | youtah | and a few of the Sony Mirrorless |
| 15:49.09 | youtah | and the specialty cameras like the P900 and P1000 |
| 15:49.11 | BigBen212 | too much of a cost |
| 15:49.21 | youtah | They were selling the P900 for $450 |
| 15:49.26 | BigBen212 | I do think that I'd rather go mirrorless next |
| 15:49.27 | youtah | I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO tempted |
| 15:49.40 | BigBen212 | just to be able to carry the camera around more often |
| 15:49.55 | youtah | Yeah |
| 15:49.59 | youtah | that is why I got my A6000 |
| 15:51.00 | BigBen212 | I *think* I want a canon mirrorless |
| 15:51.18 | BigBen212 | just because I've got glass that could be used if I wanted to, with an adapter |
| 15:51.38 | BigBen212 | maybe once I'm done paying for all the yard improvements and furniture |
| 15:51.40 | BigBen212 | :| |
| 15:52.05 | youtah | Both Canon and Nikon are behind the curve... like... 10 years behind the curve |
| 15:52.10 | youtah | I'd just go with Sony |
| 15:52.14 | BigBen212 | should have never left the townhouse to move into a "real" house |
| 15:52.16 | youtah | despite the glass |
| 15:52.34 | BigBen212 | I do really like my 70-200 |
| 15:52.42 | BigBen212 | would hate to just see it collect dust |
| 15:53.33 | BigBen212 | besides the fact that you only just got the 850 on your trip, is that a camera you would take on a trip? |
| 15:53.58 | youtah | it entirely depends |
| 15:54.10 | youtah | if I am going to be doing landscapes or "work" then I take the D850 |
| 15:54.25 | youtah | where when I went to Chicago, or going back somewhere, where I've been before, I take my Sony |
| 15:54.29 | youtah | like Moab for example |
| 15:54.34 | BigBen212 | almost everywhere you go these days you get either looked at weird or plain told that you can't take photos |
| 15:54.50 | youtah | lol, I still take the photos |
| 15:55.01 | youtah | but I make it extremely obvious as to what I am doing |
| 15:55.09 | youtah | Tripod, backpack, etc. |
| 15:55.13 | youtah | then they usually leave you alone |
| 15:55.27 | BigBen212 | tripod, I have not taken that anywhere in years |
| 15:55.31 | youtah | I have been asked to leave off the church's property downtown sl more than anywhere else. |
| 15:56.13 | youtah | Maybe it's my beard |
| 15:56.30 | youtah | Church/BYU: "uh oh, beard. exterminate him" |
| 15:56.42 | BigBen212 | got really annoyed at a museum one time where they had a lifetime's worth of reading with every exhibit |
| 15:56.46 | youtah | Everywhere else: "oh, it's an artsy fartsy bearded hipster" |
| 15:56.49 | BigBen212 | and I took photos of the signs to read them later |
| 15:56.57 | BigBen212 | and they told me they have a policy against doing that |
| 15:57.23 | BigBen212 | so I asked the guy to show me the policy and he came back with a piece of paper that simply said that it was their policy to be respectful |
| 15:57.34 | youtah | Mirrorless is great for that, Silent shutter, very discrete |
| 15:57.46 | BigBen212 | what the hell is that, taking pictures of signs that people put efford into writing is not respectful? |
| 15:57.53 | youtah | lol |
| 15:58.01 | youtah | I took tons of photos of the signs |
| 15:58.03 | youtah | in France |
| 15:58.27 | BigBen212 | yeah, but at least in France you can always say "I don't understand" when they complain and shrug your shoulders |
| 15:58.28 | youtah | especially in places like versailles |
| 15:58.35 | BigBen212 | this one was in Germany, so I couldn't just talk my way out of it |
| 15:58.51 | BigBen212 | but I did get into a bit of a discussion with their employee there |
| 15:59.12 | youtah | "Don't worry, these are respectful photos" |
| 15:59.23 | BigBen212 | yeah, he wasn't going for that |
| 15:59.24 | BigBen212 | :) |
| 15:59.26 | BigBen212 | I tried |
| 15:59.33 | youtah | "I forgot my reading glasses, so I can zoom in to read it." |
| 15:59.43 | BigBen212 | I specifically wanted him to show me in their policy how this was not respectful |
| 15:59.56 | spangborn | takes photos of youtah at work |
| 16:00.04 | BigBen212 | those people just get into their power trips |
| 16:00.13 | BigBen212 | and they make up rules |
| 16:00.51 | BigBen212 | other times, going to basketball with the 70-200 they told me at BYU that I could not take in "cameras with lenses" |
| 16:01.03 | BigBen212 | so I asked the guard to explain to me what a camera without a lens looked like |
| 16:01.40 | BigBen212 | and at the Huntsman Center for the Women's Basketball I now had to get a Media pass because they started with those same rules |
| 16:02.02 | BigBen212 | they see a large lens and they assume professional, so you have to have a permit |
| 16:02.46 | BigBen212 | but at least the media pass means I can bring in my backpack, so that's nice. And I'm sure everybody feels a lot safer now because of it (?) |

| 16:40.13 | programmerq | not sure if he found you |
| 16:40.25 | spangborn | I found eightyeight once |
| 16:40.34 | spangborn | He was at the front of a room with a microphone |
| 16:40.37 | eightyeight | someone reached out to me last night on reddit about it |
| 16:40.44 | programmerq | I did make it to UTLM. Sandra was super nice. |
| 21:36.35 | shalkie | did eightyeight direct you there? |
| 21:37.13 | eightyeight | nay |
| 21:37.20 | eightyeight | i would like to go though |
| 21:41.23 | shalkie | For some reason I have never visited. I know of them, I have used their website many times. Never occured to me to actually go though. Maybe next year around a Bees game. |
| 21:42.06 | shalkie | programmerq: I saw the tweet that you got something installed, but I don't recall seeing what was inserted. Care to tell? |
