Sony DVM60PRL Mini DV Tape 60min Premium Data Cartridge 10 Packs Order Now


Its simple. Over the years I have shot with every brand of tape and every tape format from pro level 1" Type C and 1/2" Betacam SP to home formats like VHS, Super VHS and now, Mini-DV. Most name brands are good. Some are excellent. Sony is both -- and consistently both.

In the production process, tape is the least expensive but in many ways the most important item because the information recorded on it is the culmination of ones day at work. And when you are shooting an event or story that you cannot go back and do-over, consistency of quality counts. And that's the reason I tend to use Sony.Get more detail about Sony DVM60PRL Mini DV Tape 60min Premium Data Cartridge 10 Packs.

Apple MA348LL/A 15-inch MacBook Pro Battery (Retail Packaging) Right now


Like other reviewers I went around and around on whether it was worth the extra dollars to purchase battery from Apple or another manufacturer. In the end I opted to pay the extra and get the OEM version. Yes its expensive but replacing my MacBook is too. This way I at least get some piece of mind. I paid for next day delivery and got it the next day. As far as its functional use, well it operates like a battery. Charged to full capacity first time and holding its charge for a reasonable amount of time, anywhere from 2-3 hours depending on what I am doing. Overall am happy with it but I am someone who recognizes these things need replacing from time to time.Get more detail about Apple MA348LL/A 15-inch MacBook Pro Battery (Retail Packaging).

Although I was happy with the print quality, I think Ive had other cartridges last longer. Pretty good bang for your buck though. However, this last cartridge I had leaked toner.

Save XLR male to XLR female Microphone Cable - 15 feet


Everyone develops personal preferences over time for one reason or another. I have a personal preference for the XLR ends with the really fine threaded plastic cap on the outside (first to slide down the cable) with a 4 legged gripper underneath that slides next down the cable and pinches down as you tighten the plastic outer cap into the metal housing with the solder contacts causing the gripper to strain relief most cable diameters. Unfortunately that design isn't used here, but I chose to award the 5 star rating for value because you get 15' of good quality shielded cable with 2 XLR ends (M and F) for well under $1/ft.

As for pinout it's straightforward, pin 1 is tied to the metal grip and shield and connects between both ends, while pins 2 and 3 are run isolated between both ends. The end design chosen uses the single set screw connector (the tiny one that gets lost so easy if you need to take it apart) and the rubber bumper design on the back which I haven't had the best of luck making quick changes in the field with, however for interconnecting equipment on a temporary basis these cables are an important starting point of any audio engineer's kit because they will be used not if but WHEN the need arises.

Another favorite of mine is the 6 pack of 3 foot male to female cables which do use my favorite XLR ends mentioned above, which amazon will rush you: GLS Audio 3ft Patch Cable Cords - XLR Male To XLR Female Black Cables - 3' Balanced Snake Cord - 6 PACK - these are very easy to open an end, change phase, lift ground, or input someone's oddball source signal. Having 6 on hand means you won't quibble over cable costs before the show starts and that channel will be in the final mix.

Back to pyle's product here, I basically took away 1 star for not using the easy to open and re-wire XLRs but gave them a star for value in the product since it's 15 feet long and will reach between my mixer and most anything else inside the booth for under a buck a foot. It's also great when someone yells "it's too short I need a cable stretcher at the podium!" and quickly adds 15 feet of noise free movement to a stage snake that either wasn't planned for or got moved/quit working. For the price they have saved many installations from being torn up or rewired which means no surprises opening the next showing.

I finally equipped my cable kit with the usual XLR to RCA, 1/4 TRS, hi-z transformers, and the above mentioned 6 pack of 3 foot cables to quickly gain access to the XLR terminals if need be, plus 2 of these 15 foot cables mainly to solve distance problems, and a roll of gaffer's tape for good measure to prevent tripping hazards. I used to have 2ea 50 foot XLR cables but no sooner than the box was opened one became a permanent addition to the stage snake so now I have one left for my kit. With all that I had to build an emergency XLR to 2.5mm TS all metal shielded connector for a mike input on short notice so a soldering kit with misc plugs got added to my cable bin. Even though all this was under $100 it has saved the day more than once and made the show go on, so a bit of "what if" thinking and judicial purchases can make you look like the miracle mixer in the black painted room and justify your existance when the owner's daugher's toy musicbox becomes a channel in the house mix thanks to some quick cable magic.

My last cable advice is never deconstruct something you custom made. It will no doubt be needed again, and since you made it you'll know why, how, and where it was used before, thus you save time not recreating a past fix rather pulling it from your magic box of tricks and solving the problem. People think you can hook anything up where others tried and failed furthering your staff position. My only exception goes to cables that violate every standard and didn't serve to fix the problem like that phase reversed ground lifted XLR 4 pin stereo Y splitter to dual TRS female cable I made for the harmonica duet where the performers had nose rings and lip bars pierced and kept getting static with their mics when they held the harmonica up to their jewelry. I chalked that up to being part of the intended musical signal, wondering just how much it hurt to play with all the piercings scraping along the harmonica when I setup my monitor speakers to listen to just that (stereo) channel in rehersal at the console.Get more detail about XLR male to XLR female Microphone Cable - 15 feet.

Order Eye-Fi Pro X2 8 GB Class 6 SDHC Wireless Flash Memory Card EYE-FI-8PC


Honestly, I was blown away with the concept of wifi being added to a flash memory card, but also skeptical if it would live up to the hype. I think there's room for improvement with the software, but the card itself actually works quite well.


Easy Setup

Just plug in the USB reader and SDHC card to launch and install the software and you're up and running within minutes. The wireless connection to your router might be where some novice users run into problems, but I suspect if you know what wifi is, then you're probably smart enough to figure out how to enable the connection. It's really no harder than connecting to a wifi hotspot at home or in your local coffee shop. Nothing complicated there, so let's move on to the true test...


Shooting Pics and Vids

I dropped the Eye-Fi into my Canon HFS 10, switched the cam's record settings from internal memory storage to this Eye-Fi -- and voila -- I was ready to shoot. And I tell ya, it's pretty cool to take a picture, and then seconds later, see it automatically pop-up on my computer screen and download into a folder on my hard drive. Videos obviously take longer to download than pics, but it still works and is pretty neat. Though honestly, I doubt I'd rely on this Eye-Fi to transfer my HD vids. The files can be pretty large, and I'd be concerned about file integrity over a sustained wireless connection. Anyone who has worked extensively with video footage knows how easily files can be corrupted. And for me, there are still circumstances where hardwires are just better and more reliable than any wireless connection. I guess I'm just old school that way. Besides, I prefer using my video camera's interface and software since it catalogs my videos in a way I'm used to working with. Maybe with some time to acclimate to the change I might use the Eye-Fi to transfer videos too, but for now, I'm gonna stick to just using it for pictures and transfer my HD vids manually. Besides, it's only 8gb, which isn't all that much when it comes to AVCHD video.


Software

The weakest element here is the software. Don't get me wrong, it works just fine. But it feels a little restrictive and the user interface is limited. But then, maybe it doesn't matter all that much since I already have my favorite photo editing and organizing programs. I guess it could just be a little more obvious about certain things, such as, why thumbnails remain viewable to pics that I've deleted. But I've since learned those files are refreshed every few days, so the orphaned thumbnails iron themselves out in the end. But overall, maybe the pared down interface is best. It takes a bit to get used to, but aside from setting up the wireless connection and selecting where to store files, the software really doesn't have to do much else for my needs.


It's Orange!

Meaningless as to how it operates, but I love orange, so...
:oD


Bottom line - the price tag is a bit hefty, but make no mistake, this is a cool little gadget. And since it's rated for class 6 speeds, the memory card itself is more than capable of handling speed intensive applications like AVCHD. Add to that a wifi connection -- and voila -- Eye-Fi has turned something as boring as disk storage into an exciting and pragmatically useful product. I just wish it was 32gb instead of 8, but I'm sure that's coming down the pike soon enough.

Shop For CaseCrown Genuine Leather Vertical Flip iPad Case (Black) for the Apple iPad Wifi / 3G Model 16GB, 32GB, 64GB


There are build quality issues with the case. The iPad's top edge is always hidden under the case. The front of the case is never square on the iPad , no matter how much you try to push or pull.
If I had no problem with the build quality, the only concern that I would have had is that the case does not have a hole for the light sensor which I guess can be solved by punching a hole and also the latch is magnetic which makes the built in compass in iPad go crazy.Get more detail about CaseCrown Genuine Leather Vertical Flip iPad Case (Black) for the Apple iPad Wifi / 3G Model 16GB, 32GB, 64GB.

Marware Eco-Flip for iPad Top Quality


Haven't had this long enough to rate durability, so this is a "first impressions" sort of review.

The design is excellent. Can prop up iPad in landscape or portrait modes - the flip-over style is much better at providing a secure portrait platform than an opens-like-a-book style.

One thing that looked stupid in the product description, but is actually both smart and handy is the elastic strap on the back (when flipped over) under which one can put one's hand. This is remarkably convenient and comfortable for one-handed holding, leaving the other hand free to manipulate the screen and/or keyboard. One of the problems of the iPad is that its size makes it awkward to hold in one hand - the strap cures that. If it's stupid but it works, it isn't stupid.

The case seems to be very protective of the iPad. I have no qualms about putting it in a briefcase with files and miscellaneous hardware. The thin elastic retaining strap keeps the case closed, and is easy to use, one handed and without looking. How long it will last remains to be seen, but it hasn't shown any signs of premature wear.

I use the iPad in a professional setting, so I am looking for something that looks professional. The case is quite attractive without being obvious or garish - it resembles a commonly encountered leather portfolio. This blends in nicely for me, but will disappoint someone looking for an I-gotta-be-me fashion statement. In the so-called real world, if they're distracted by your toys, they're not paying attention to your presentation.

An added bonus is that an iPad is still rare enough that it is a theft magnet. The case makes it less obvious that it is an iPad and thus reduces its profile as a target.

I do not comment on the "case" versus "no case" dialectic. For use around the house, there is really little need for a case, although the enhanced one-hand use and ability to prop up hands-free would be a bonus anywhere. In the workaday world, a case is almost a necessity, for the reasons referred to above: protection, ease of use, focus, and theft temptation reduction.

One lack is that the iPad won't fit in the dock with the case, and you can't prop it in portrait position with the docking cable attached.

All in all, this is an excellent product of its type. If it lasts it will deserve the fifth star. So far, so good.

AmazonBasics USB 2.0 A-Male to B-Male Cable (6 Feet / 1.8 Meters) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging] Best Quality


Definitely liking these cables, especially at the price point. Kind of slick to have cables branded by Amazon, even if they're made off-shore. All the reviews about the quality are definitely on the mark and I definitely feel good about this purchase after having them in hand and using them.

I purchased this one in particular to replace the (ugly) gray, cheap-as-possible and of course too-short cable that came with my external HD enclosure. Talk about an upgrade. You don't know crappy your cables are until you replace them with something that looks and functions much better.

Again, this was definitely worth the measly price and the quality speaks for itself. I would absolutely purchase these again.Get more detail about AmazonBasics USB 2.0 A-Male to B-Male Cable (6 Feet / 1.8 Meters) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging].

Save HP 96 Twinpack Black Inkjet Print Cartridge with Vivera Ink (C9348FN#140)


The only reason I gave this one star is because it was the wrong cartridge for my printer. Despite what the "will this fit your printer?" FAQ box says, this cartridge did not work with my HP psc 1610 all-in-one. It fit all right, but the printer itself told me, "The 96 cartridge is not for use with this printer." The box itself didn't list my printer, so I called Amazon before I opened it. I got the OK to open it, tried it out with the Amazon rep on the line, and it wouldn't work - so he's sending me a shipping label to return it despite my having to open it. This is another reason I love Amazon - they try to make things right when they're at fault, and even sometimes when they're not at fault. They're supposed to change the FAQ box, but this is a heads-up just in case.Get more detail about HP 96 Twinpack Black Inkjet Print Cartridge with Vivera Ink (C9348FN#140).

Cheap AmazonBasics 4.7 GB 16x DVD+R (100-Pack Spindle)


Firstoff, I have burned about 600 of these with no coasters. I am using the default HP BD/DVD drive that came in my laptop, so no fancy burner is being used either.

The ID of my DVD+R's was AML-003-00 (the AML's are rated as very terrible on some websites, but my results show the complete opposite). I tested these against the extremely highly rated Verbatim DVD+R single layers, and they actually outperformed them in terms of errors per sector.

Here are the results from the tests:

AmazonBasics DVD+R (AML-003-00)
PI Errors (Should not exceed 280 maximum): Average 16.04, Maximum 160.6 (the relatively high maximum was a single spike, so I ignored it as a test error)
PI Failures (Should not exceed 32 maximum): Average 0.01, Maximum 12.2

These results surprised me greatly, as they are VERY GOOD for most discs, much less a BUDGET DVD+R.

Now for the Verbatim DVD+R (MCC003)
PI Errors (Should not exceed 280 maximum): Average 29.04, Maximum 360.1 (There were 2 single high spikes, the rest of the test was very good, and since there were only 2 spikes, I didnt pay it much heed, but I would like to test another Verbatim DVD again).
PI Failures (Should not exceed 32 maximum): Average 0.04, Maximum 14.4 (There was only 1 single high spike, so I ignored it. The rest of the data was fine).

Also tested the 'terrible' Memorex DVD+R's that everyone complains about (they got 3/5 stars on amazon):
Memorex DVD+R (CMC MAG M01)
PI Errors (Should not exceed 280 maximum): Average 21.02, Maximum 140.1
PI Failures (Should not exceed 32 maximum): Average 0.02, Maximum 12.1


So all 3 DVD's performed extremely well, especially considering they are 'low-cost alternative' brands, not top-of-the-line DVD's. If you want more info on ECC PI/PO checking/errors, check out MYCE. great info there. All testing was done with Nero CD/DVD speed.

I will buy more of these when I get the chance.Get more detail about AmazonBasics 4.7 GB 16x DVD+R (100-Pack Spindle).

Cheap Leather Carrying Case Cover/Folio With Built-in Stand for Apple iPad 3G tablet / Wifi model 16GB, 32GB, 64GB (BLACK)


Alrighty, I have read a lot of reviews from Amazon regarding this case. I have to say that after thoroughly looking throughout the case here are my findings.
Pros
Nice design
Looks stylish and professional
Leather feels nice and soft.
The multiple angle stand is truly amazing.
Covers the the top of the Ipad around the edges.
Snug and easy fit.
Cons
Not trimmed perfectly, and I find the stiching just above average.
Has magnets for the stand and that may cause issues with some apps, but I myself have not had any problems.
The button to close the case is a little misplaced in my opinion. It should not be placed on top, it should be placed on the side.
Distant wierd china product smell, but it dissapears after a little bit.
The best case for its value, at an average price of around $11.00 this case is superb! I had the oppurtunity to test out the apple case and I found the case to be somewhat overpriced. Fortunately for me, the case was out of stock. I noticed that the Apple case collected dust, like itnwere its job! The case only had one angle for landscape mode, and it didnt seem to sturdy. The actual material of the case was my biggest complaint. All in all, I feel like this case is a must-buy!
