    My gut is thinking the USA will do very well under Trump's leadership.  A person can keep whining and make excuses as to why he is in office, however, there comes to the point to support the man and hope for the best.  Only time will dictate the truth.  Speaking of media - Rebel Media (independent)...Trump stands up to a Saudi Prince.  Interesting.  5 minute video.

     

    Oh god no.... He will be a disaster, the question is how much. There isn't an ounce of data to support your hunch that the country will do very well. I would put money down he doesn't even know how laws are passed. He's shown profound ignorance on issues with any substance. He will delegate as much as possible and serve more as a figurehead while Pence hires failed republicans like Gingrich, Christie and Giuliani to prominent positions. They will proceed to do what they have always done... figure out how to best enrich themselves and their buddies.

    And "hoping for the best" is exactly why the country is in such terrible shape...... just kind of hoping things work out while everything around you is deteriorating. Stay passive and marginalized and get.......

    I'm sorry this is so stupid, I don't even know where to begin. Love him or hate him, he received the worst media bias against him than any previous nominee in recent history.

    The Main Stream Media has become diabolic and evil. And the quality of reporting is worthy of sending reporters and channels to jail for fabrication. It is a phenomenon that isn't endemic to the US alone, in the last few years.

    I agree that something must be done about it.  They have blown all morality to the wind. 

    They sell advertising for a living..... that's how and why they exist. They are not moral institutions. There is a guise of a free press but nobody should believe that.

    The answer is independent media funded by people..... not businesses, where the number 1 expense is advertising in order to shape or manipulate human behavior.

  3. Sony quote 13-15 stops for all their recent cameras so that's nothing new. I would expect it to perform similarly to the A7R II in its Super 35mm crop mode.

    What I like about the A6300 is more the promising new AF tracking system and the amount it packs in for a price.

    New low(ish) budget king!

    It tops the NX1 with 16-50mm S lens for about $1500?

  4. Trump is quite clearly a misogynist, pandering demagogue, but he is a wildcard as a politician because he really hasn't substantiated much in terms of his policies. He also has a history advocating for things antithetical to the republican platform, ie universal healthcare.

    With Cruz, you get a definite and dangerous nut cake. Clinton is a corporatist, like Obama, and 100% status quo.

     

  5.  I agree with Mercer that the NX mount is DEAD and it's terrible news for anyone that invested in NX glass like me.   Nobody is going to make an adapter to use NX lenses on any other mounts, so when my NX1 (which I love by the way) falls behind the tech curve in a few years, my two Samsung S lenses that I bought for $2,500 and my two other NX lenses become useless to me.  

    Or if you can somehow manage to scrap up $400 at the time, you will be able to buy a used NX1 off ebay probably and continue using your expensive lenses.
