  1. Correct. Although when you look at who Trump has appointed in the cabinet, you have to say that the majority of those Americans aren't a very astute judge of character, or perhaps they're simply unawares. Lesser of the two evils? Trump's tariffs will destroy the US economy and triple inflation, and it doesn't need a 'mainstream media outlet' to tell you that. It's simply logic. If he does what he says he will, and nobody stops him, then he could also crash the global economic outlook as well. The stock market has already fallen following his batshit crazy cabinet picks. I can't in any way deny that the Democrats completely messed up this election... Too cozy with corporate culture and lobbyists, ignored men, ignored Bernie Sanders, can't claim a good record on the economy when normal people aren't feeling it and only big businesses are... And involved in two depressing wars. But the fact that people think Trump is the lesser evil just seems completely wrongheaded to me. It's as if you folk have been brainwashed by a cult leader. I agree... Too much divide and rule in today's pre-war world. Absolutely... Shelter is unaffordable, food is a rip off, and society is becoming clinical, sexless, dull. In fact property prices, rent prices, food prices, are a big reason Biden lost the election. And he ain't responsible for any of it. Global population is growing, resources are not keeping up, and the US public will find out soon enough that whether they elect a politician or a celebrity, it won't make a damn difference in the long term. You have a celebrity apprentice government with unserious, inexperienced demigods and narcissist in it, and somehow they have been able to resonate with the public. That shows how vast the failure of the liberals are... That a convicted felon was able to resonate with the everyday American family better than the morally posturing vacant Harris. They didn't lie at all the polls were very accurate, it was a close outcome in the few key states where the voting mattered, 51-49% is a similar margin to Brexit referendum in the UK which was always on a knife edge, and in these situations even a Joe Rogen podcast can sway the result last minute. Why do you think Trump is the lesser of the two evils then, he is the ultimate divide and profit by media candidate. He is not out for you. He is not out for anybody but himself and his racist rich friends. I am all for it. No hardened personal feelings towards you at all.

  3. Never mind. I finally found one with a serial number 7511105 with significant yellowing according to the seller. That would mean one with a serial number lower would definitely have it too. I'm still not sure when it stopped. I'm fairly sure they made this lens into the 80s and they wouldn't have done it then. It's so easy to blow time on things like this.

  4. What they are calling "overclock" isn't. This looks like some kind of industrial high speed camera. It's just a different operating MODE. Just like on the spec sheet. And the so called downsides are more to do with the engineering side on the camera (thermals and data pipes) not keeping up. And 1000% certain that Fuji aren't going to offer a menu option that says "overclock me baby"

  6. It is exactly this - everyone is trying to get a piece of the ZV-E10 (which is a HUGE seller for Sony), but positioning the cameras as hybrids. A good move, I should say. And with the dedicated button to switch custom picture profiles in the Z50 II, now oficially Fujifilm (which created the market for "filmish" picture profiles) is the worst brand if you want to use custom picture proflies. Great job, Fuji.

  7. Is suspect the reasons for leaving out IBIS (other than the Mk 1 didn't have it) are cost and weight e.g. the Sony ZV-10 ii doesn't have it either. But it's still larger and heavier than the A6700 and X-S20 (which have IBIS), and has the worst battery life out of the three. Nikon seem to be targeting the ZV-10 ii & X-M5 market price area but with the EVF as added value (in exchange for heavily cropped 4k60p, a larger & heavier body and less extensive moderately priced lens choices). Prices from Wex in the UK: Size/weight/battery life spec extracts from dpreview.com: Z50 ii: A6700: X-S20:
