Actually, everyone got it, except you Frank. So why use one to describe yourself?

Please, this belongs in the Off Topic forum.

That's too bad. These forums are for all of us to learn from each other. Don't mind the obnoxious and unhelpful critics.

Can we see the original photo without the modifications?

If you can't perceive a difference, both cameras are superior to your skill at using them. So don't worry about it, keep on shooting and improving your skills with both. Eventually, you will ...

None of these media are archival Back up to media that can easily be "refreshed" (copied) periodically (I suggest once a year). HDDs are much more convenient for this than CDs or DVDs. You can ...

HDMI and DisplayPort are both digital standards. Ones and zeros. If the signal gets from one end to the other (i.e. you can see the output on the monitor), there is no difference in "quality". The ...

Yes, but the default is Disk 0, and if you had plugged it into a different port without changing the BIOS that might have caused your problem. Yes, that is what unallocated means. It's a good idea ...

Like partitions, RAM disks were completely obsoleted by operating systems many years ago. Modern operating systems use disk space for Virtual Memory, and also use available RAM to cache ...

Congratulations, that is impressive. A good pair of headphones is a revelation, definitely worth it. Go to a live concert once in a while, and enjoy the photography!

Too bad you went directly from obsession to being happy with bad sound. You missed the place in the middle where you can enjoy good sound without obsessing over it. Quality of life is a matter of ...

Here's a funny joke: lenses and bodies don't work well when they're cut in half! Wait... they already repeated that joke... on every slide...

Keep it simple.

I used to really like Olympus. How sad.

But I'm telling you, they aren't getting anywhere near me with those retro Olympus endoscopes.

... and I like both. The G7 is the best-handling camera I have ever owned or handled. Great grip (who wants to buy a camera that requires an optional grip?), front and back control wheels, every ...
