Where are the rest of Rumare slaughterfish!?
I've been looking for them for freaking 4 hours now.
The green marker is freaking useless and one was flipping around on here on the map lmao
I've been playing Monster Hunter Rise for about 70 hours now.
I was enjoying it at first but it's getting repetitive now and I'm not sure if I wanna go to Sunbreak (already bought the expansion).
I recently watched some videos of Dark Souls 3 and it looked really interesting. I also heard Elden Ring is really good.
Which would you recommend?
Rise is my first Monster Hunter game, and I’ve been playing Long Sword. I’ve just reached 7★ Hub Quests after about 60 hours. I already bought Sunbreak, but I’m not sure if I want to start it.
The hunts are beginning to feel repetitive, and I’m wondering whether Sunbreak adds enough new mechanics or variety to make the game feel fresh again, especially for a Long Sword player.
If you felt the same way at this point, did Sunbreak change your mind? What made it fun for you?
Budget: Around USD $900 for the body. I have a separate budget for lenses and accessories.
Country: USA
Condition: New and used
Type of Camera: Mirrorless
Intended use: Photography
End use: Personal use, social media, and occasional small prints
If photography, what style: Street photography, landscapes, travel, and everyday photography
If video, what style: Video is not a priority
What features do you absolutely need: A durable and reliable body that can survive many years of regular use, a good electronic viewfinder, weather sealing, and the ability to create and save custom JPEG recipes in the camera
What features would be nice to have: Image stabilization, strong autofocus, a good battery, tactile controls, and an enjoyable shutter feel
Portability: Small enough to carry regularly in a small shoulder bag. It does not need to be pocketable
Cameras you’re considering: Fujifilm XT3, Fujifilm XT4, and Sony A6400
I am considering the XT3 because I like its physical controls, tilting screen, film simulations, and relatively compact body.
I am considering the XT4 because it adds image stabilization, a larger battery, and improved durability, although I am unsure about the fully articulating screen and additional weight.
I am considering the A6400 because of its compact size, fast autofocus, and responsive shutter feel.
Cameras you already have: I currently use and love the Fujifilm XT1. I especially enjoy its physical controls, build quality, and compatibility with manual focus lenses. I previously owned an A6400 and liked its compact size, autofocus, and quick response, but eventually sold it because the XT1 felt more enjoyable with manual lenses.
Notes: My biggest priorities are durability, long term reliability, and enjoying the act of taking photographs. I also want to create pleasing JPEG looks inside the camera without spending much time editing.
For people who have owned both systems, which body would you trust to keep working for many years? Which one do you actually enjoy taking out and shooting with?
Hey! I’m 37 and Japanese. I recently moved back to Japan after spending about 11 years abroad, mostly in Australia.
I’m pretty easygoing and love good coffee, finding nice little cafes, spontaneous trips, photography, and just having a good conversation with someone I click with.
I’d love to meet someone for a relaxed coffee and maybe something sweet somewhere in Tokyo. Nothing too serious or formal at first. Just hang out, get to know each other, have a laugh, and see where it goes. If we click and it naturally turns into something more, even better!
I’m happy to chat a little first, and if we’re both comfortable, we can exchange photos too. Always nice to know who you’re going to be sharing cake with 😄
So don’t overthink it. Feel free to send me a casual message and say hi! Tell me a little about yourself, or just tell me your favorite dessert and we can start from there ☕🍰

I'm trying to simplify my camera collection, and I've narrowed it down to these two cameras.
The Nikon D4 is huge and heavy. It's definitely not something I casually throw into a bag. But every time I use it, the whole experience is incredibly satisfying. The shutter sound, the viewfinder, the handling, the responsiveness, it makes me want to go out and take photos. The process itself is enjoyable.
The Fujifilm X-T1 is the complete opposite. It's small, light, and easy to carry everywhere. Because of that, I naturally end up taking it out more often. However, I don't enjoy the actual shooting experience nearly as much. The shutter sound and overall feel just don't give me the same satisfaction as the D4.
So I'm stuck.
One camera encourages me to go out because it's easy to carry.
The other makes me enjoy photography much more once I actually start shooting.
If you could only keep one, which would you choose, and why?
Edit: One more question!
If you shoot JPEG, which Picture Control do you usually use, and what do you use it for?

Ladies and gents,
I know mirrorless cameras have largely taken over, but I’m curious if anyone here still daily carries one of Nikon’s flagship DSLRs like the D3, D4, D5, or D6.
Not just for paid work, but for everyday photography, street photography, or simply because you enjoy shooting with them.
If you do:
I’d also love to know what lens you usually keep mounted.
I’m considering making a pro DSLR my everyday camera again, so I’m interested in hearing how other people actually use theirs in real life.
Thanks!
Bought a cheap Nikon D4 recently and I’ve been having so much fun dialing in the colors in camera. Shooting SOOC only has been a refreshing challenge, and honestly I’m enjoying it more than I expected. It’s amazing how much you can get straight out of the camera. Anyone else still shooting a D4 or other older Nikon bodies?
I’ve been trying to declutter my game collection, but I’ve still got a pretty big Switch backlog.
At the same time, I’ve narrowed my PC library down to basically just XCOM EW and XCOM 2.
Those are the only PC games I still keep installed.The problem is, the bigger my Switch backlog gets, the harder it is to actually start any of those games. And every now and then I get this overwhelming urge to go back to XCOM EW, which makes it even harder to make progress on my backlog.
With all the news about PlayStation supposedly moving toward a fully digital future around 2028, I’ve started wondering if I even need new games anymore.Honestly, I feel like I could happily spend the rest of my life with XCOM, plus maybe five really great Switch games, and never buy another game again.
Anyone else feel this way?
I’ve always loved cameras and have owned quite a few over the years. The problem is that I often enjoy buying cameras more than actually using them.
Because of that, I’ve been decluttering my gear collection over the past few months. I started with 12 cameras and have managed to narrow it down to just two:
My goal is to keep only one camera. I feel that if I keep both, I’ll continue overthinking and end up not taking either of them out as much as I should.
I mainly shoot landscapes and street photography. The X-T1 is compact and enjoyable to carry around, while the D4 feels incredible in the hand and is a joy to use despite its size.
If you had to choose only one, which would you keep and why?
Please don’t suggest selling both and buying something else. The decision is strictly between the X-T1 and the D4.
A few months ago, I finished my first playthrough as a Warrior on Normal difficulty, and now I’m playing through it again as a Rogue, also on Normal.
This is actually my first Diablo game. I haven’t really been able to get into most modern games lately, so I started looking for older games and eventually found Diablo 1. I ended up getting completely hooked. The simple gameplay, dark atmosphere, and soundtrack are all fantastic.
I know this game is ancient by today’s standards, but are there still people actively playing it?
Also, how much replay value does Diablo 1 really have? Is it the kind of game people sink hundreds of hours into, or after I finish a playthrough as a Sorcerer, is there not much left to see?
At the moment I’m absolutely loving it. I’ve settled into a routine of playing for 30 minutes to an hour whenever I have some free time, and it’s become one of my favorite ways to relax.
This is really fragmented, but I’m writing down everything I can remember. I’m looking for a European movie (not American), probably from the 90s or early 2000s, with a dark tone. I don’t think there were any famous actors in it. There was a group of around 4–5 young male friends who had known each other since childhood. I vaguely remember them deciding to do some kind of “big crime” together. At the end of the movie, it’s revealed that one of the friends betrayed the group. The final scene takes place in something like a barn, warehouse, or old building. The main character walks outside, while the traitor stays inside. You don’t actually see the shooting happen, you only hear a gunshot from inside the building, and I think the movie ends there. I could be mixing up details from different movies, though.
