    Bye

    Actually we were bartering way before 'profit' was even a thought. The vast majority of people exchanged things with each other through history. Not money. We were mostly rural up until recent times. Money created the idea of profit, middlemen, accountants and financial capitalist. All of which...

    Just for the record, I'm not overly fond of the flood of Black Friday and Cyber Monday ads but I just ignore them in general.

    Oddly, it's usually the cheaper ones that are considered the best. All the high end ones tend to come out in the middle of the pack. But of course it's all down to both personal preference and your perception.

    Any Questions?

    I've not had any issues with any apps. I use a few of the popular ones without problems. Can't say 100% there are no issues (way too many apps to try) but I think the majority will be fine. Split screen works great too.

    If you want RAW photos you can use Open Camera. Sony's standard camera app doesn't do RAW. You might find a GCam port as well but I'm personally happy with Sony's camera. I personally like the photos I get from the Xperia 1 but it never seems to come up much when they do camera tests. People...

    Move from Sony XZ Premium

    I went from the XZ to the X1. The size doesn't bother me at all. The camera(s) are significantly better than my XZ. I personally think the X1 is an exceptional phone. Unfortunately not many people buy Sony phones for whatever reason. They did well with this one IMO. If you're curious about the...

    Thanks. :) Yes SOOC. Editing night shots is an art form and unless you know how to do it well it ends up looking pretty dire. These are on manual mode as I found the auto mode didn't work as well.

    This thread appears to have died. I guess not many people have the Xperia 1 or whatever. Anyway just some night shots. This is Versailles fountains at night.

    Latest Software Update Aug 2019

    From what I've read it appears to be just the security patch even though it was a large revision change. They may have fixed a couple of bugs but other than that not much of a change. Sony is pretty good with the security patches in general.

    So first up, something I've never run into before but apparently is very Sicilian. This is a gelato brioche sandwich. It's very yummy. Looks aside. There's two flavours there.
