Nice side of the road landscape. The only things I could think to improve it is maybe compensate the exposure for the highlights a bit more since you seem to be clipping the clouds on the left side of the frame; and perhaps bring up the shadows a bit more for the land in the shot.
 
Here's a vintage computer still life I did. Lens is the FA* 85 1.4 and the camera is the Pentax KP. Bounced a flash off the wall to the left and filled in the right side with a bit of aluminum foil. Terminal is the Wyse wy-60 with the included keyboard.

Happens all the time with Amazon too. This isn't shady it's just how logistics is sometimes..

Of course it will work (if not being a bit overkill). MSI tends to put on pretty good VRMs so it'll boost properly and it won't do anything weird.

Assuming the camera itself does not change bitrates in the background, yes. You will use half the data (theoretically, probably not exactly) using 30 over 60.

I think the shotgun mic suggestion is a very good one since it's incredibly directional. But any cardioid/supercardioid microphone should work. Something like the Shure SM57 mounted on a boom arm directed towards your scene with the gain bumped up. The interface you use will need a decent noise floor so I'd suggest something like the MOTU M2 or the Tascam 1x2HR. I'd avoid behringer like the plague for a project like this.
 
Goodluck!

Surprised you needed ISO 6400 for this shot, but a little grain never hurt. Love a bit of bokeh in street photos, puts more of a central focus in the shot. Well done I like it.
 
Here, have a duck. Pentax KP with the SMC M 75-150 f4.

It took me many hours of research for my current audio setup. If you need any help you can shoot me a pm.

Depends on your use case. In general the reason most people shoot film these days is for:
 
1. The look. Film generally has colors and looks that change with the film you use. Think of it being like having the ability to change the sensor on your camera whenever you wanted. Fine grain, cool colors, whatever you want.
 
2. The process. Analog photography is a much more "connected" experience to your work, especially when you use very old cameras like a pentax spotmatic or a film leica. Having to imagine your scene without chimping is really fun. And all the manual dials and lack of handholding really make you connected to the pictures you take. It's a fun experience and one every photographer should experience every now and again.
 
Another reason someone might consider film photography would be larger formats. With digital, even today, there is very little progress in the medium format and large format spaces. The sensors are still crop from their original film formats and you can never really achieve the same field of view or the raw quality of a 4x5 field camera or even a 6x7. Not even gonna mention 8x10 because we all know a digital 8x10 will NEVER happen anytime soon lol!
 
So film has its reasons to exist. Be it purely for aesthetic, hobby or practical purposes. The actual look of film isn't actually easy to nail down since it changes with the film you use. Sometimes a film shot will look as good or better than a digital shot depending on the format used.

Anyone not expecting something like this had their head in the clouds. There's no way an 8 core 16 thread is going to beat or even match a 4 core/8thread CPU in non multithreaded optimized loads. The quadcore just has more headroom for higher clocks while the 8 core is far more of a generalist CPU. 
 
But this is why I think the 6 core offering will be much more popular from AMD, still benefits from the additional cores but will close the gap in terms of raw gaming performance.

Not a fair comparison because Bulldozer was actually shit. Ryzen is poised to be incredibly good.

Facts are facts and the benchmarks used by AMD were industry standards. While I still think it's wise to wait for unbiased and well conducted reviews before EVER committing money to something like this, there's almost no doubt in my mind that these chips are going to cause an uproar.
 
As for your concern on pricing, the reason they can price these so low is because of great yields obviously, and the fact that intel has no doubt been price gouging due to a complete lack of real competition. GloFo's 14nm yields have been insanely good so there's probably very little lost per wafer.

Because tbh, CES is meant for the crazy stuff in my eyes. I'd look at normal launches if I wanted normal things...

I think this kind of tech would be way cooler for stuff like museums. Talk to great minds of the past.
 
Here it just seems sad.
