And sometimes even make multiple jumps from one topic to another waiting for the next moment to talk.
Or in the case of when a few of my buddies and I hang out we will talk for hours and our topics will be as wide as the ocean and as deep as a puddle. Or the opposite, as deep as the ocean and as wide as a puddle.
Literally had a newer friend ask me once how I got on a topic, I explained it and in the process of explaining it queued up a new topic that I just kinda slid in at the end like it was always there and pivoted again.
They looked at me flabbergasted and said, “Nevermind, I guess we’re talking about public transit now.” And the convo continued until our break was over.
Those are the best conversations. Well, as long as the other person is willing to keep up and isn’t thrown off completely.
The funniest thing is that I even make the simplest and most logical things unnecessarily complicated.
The other day, the word deer reminded me I wanted to look up telezoom lenses. Well, I’m into nature photography, the conversation even started with photography, so that makes sense without any detours, right?
I’m also into nature photography though I haven’t gotten any great shots with my telephoto lens really. It’s bloody hard to line it up not to mention focus it. I’m getting better but it can still be tough.
Now close ups, portraits, and landscapes are my jam.
I hike a lot (probably too much) and drag my camera gear with me almost every time unless I’m spelunking.
I usually just shoot the birds in my backyard with mine, anything further away doesn’t work because the flange focal lenght doesn’t match. Old manual lens adapted to a DSLR.
Oh yeah, I think this is where the deer comes in. I saw one while on a walk, but it was too far away for me to focus on it. I’ll need to get me a mirrorless camera to eliminate the flange problem with those old lenses.
I’ve got a Lumix G9 and the telephoto lens I use is a 100mm to 300mm which is a lot of zoom.
I dig my camera and that lens but man is it great for old manual lenses too.
I’ve got an old Soviet 50mm lens for 16mm film projectors that has bonkers depth of field isolation. Basically if a subject is behind another one I can focus on what’s behind it. Basically like this.
Oh hell yeah

Explaining the connection while seeing the other person progressively lose more faith in humanity is never a dull moment.
X reminds of 6 reminds me of b reminds me of ℅ reminds me of 278 reminds me of d€1hG reminds me of π÷s8Ga&j
So very clearly, X has everything to do with π÷s8Ga&j
Straight up facts

Haha
Makes total sense to me.

Those old projector lenses have aperture values that are just insane for photography. Hell yeah.
Fastest I have is a Minolta MD Rokkor 50mm 1.4, very nice glass, that one. But very far from producing anything like in that video.
