Is this a Rex begonia? The website I bought it from only had the name "begonia pancake" and no other information. If so did I cover its roots correctly? (picGardener (All For Gardening)
Feeling the pressure to go mirrorless for my photography. I’m looking at my pile of DSLR lenses, and feeling sad about having to sell them all and start from scratch, but maybe that’s what I should do.
All the new development are on mirrorless, in particular Sony. It’s getting harder to find 3rd party lenses with the Nikon FX mount.

Wikipedia's featured article is Jefferson Davis and I'm flashing back 20 years to the time I was invited to drinks at Rosemont, his childhood house in Woodville, Mississippi.
As we stood on that veranda, cocktails in hand, the couple who owned it proceeded to tell me that enslaved people were better off here in bondage than free in Africa because they were so awful to each other there.
Processing the insanity I was hearing made me dizzy. And is one reason nothing about the GOP surprises me.

Currently the U.S is under a corrupt administration directed by either Putin or The Saudis.
No other country should be involved with anything at this point.
Boycott the U.S. until we fix the problem we created. Especially Tourism and trade.

in reply to Dave Rahardja 🎄 • • •You can buy a f to z adapter (Nikon FTZ). This is do you can convince yourself that your F mount lenses will not be wasted. In some ways buying the adapter is just to trick your conscience into giving you permission to change.
But everything about the Z series seems better. Autofocus with a z mount lens is notably faster than the old lenses with the adapter.
I found that I would use the kit lens with my little Z50 rather than pull out one of my primes with the adapter. After two years, the only F mount I use is the 10-24mm superwide and the 85mm lens for portraits. I think that a smart move would have been to be decisive and sell them.
But the Z mount has been around for a while, so F mount is old technology.
As an aside, a consideration for me is that I had a lot of Nikon compatible speed lights and flash triggers which also worked on the Z body.
