um excuse me posted:Go Pro? Definitely the wide angle you want plus they're endlessly useful for other stuff. A hero 5 shoots 12 MP still with RAW and can easily be had for under $150 used. Interesting idea. You inspired me to look into the numbers. https://www.amazon.co.uk/YI-Action-Camera-Sensor-Bluetooth/dp/B00UFFZUO6 A YI Action Camera is about $50 new and has a 155° lens which I think is equivalent to a 3mm lens on a crop body? http://www.bobatkins.com/photography/technical/field_of_view.html

Personally, I prefer a faster lens than IS. It's nicer to look through when composing, af works better in low light and it's better for capturing moving subjects in low light.

DJExile posted:but yeah I'd still be leery of their overall reliability. I think my photos are worth at least an extra $10 to have a card with a lower failure rate than a Walgreen's special. (well, to be honest, maybe a full card full of my photos is worth almost that)

qirex posted:Yeah, I'm talking about buying $25 Sandisk cards instead of $55 ones. Ah, yup, that is a wise move. Sandisk is an awful lot of marketing bollocks. As DJExile says with his usual wisdom, just buy whatever class your camera needs and ignore all that 'XtremeMegaXtremePro' shite.

um excuse me posted:The Xtreme ones are supposedly built to meet a larger temperature range. Great for things like dash cams where they can range from 0F to 150F. Interesting, but the cynic in me felt that was dubious, given that microSD cards have always been designed to sit next to warm phone batteries so you inspired me to google a little: quote:Temperature proof: quote:When it comes to flash cards, Kingston Technology is one of the most renowned brands today. Kingston offers a wide array of flash products including a wide line of micro SDs. If you are looking for a tougher kind of micro SD that can withstand harder temperatures, Kingston also got an offering for you, the Kingston Industrial Temperature microSD UHS-1. Average microSDs has operating temperature range of only -25º C to 85º C. The Industrial Temperature microSD UHS-1 has operating temperature range of as low as -40º C to 85º C. Follow us today as we check out the Kingston 64GB Industrial Temperature UHS-I Micro SD. I mean, it's been a bit cold recently, but I think I'll be okay with the standard cards.

ugh whatever jeez posted:I store my photos on NAS (1 Gbps connection) and most of the time I let Lightroom import directly there, only when I'm importing shitload of photos I put them first to SSD, I find that the speed difference isn't really that big. What does drive me up the wall is Lightroom building previews, have to make them or working and moving between photos is painfully slow, and it takes AGES. This is one thing I miss about Capture One, it was so fast. I import to the SSD, build the previews and then move them. I am sure that this is a faster method.
