Ballad Of The Wind Fish 8 Instruments

I use this mic to record string and wind (brass mostly) instruments.  The different patterns make it effective in a variety of spaces depending on whether you want to reject other sounds or include reflections.  Versatile and great sound quality.

I like wind instruments. This is that and so much more. Nice features make playing sound like the real thing. Tried it all but haven't used it as a midi controller yet

8 x Splitter works as described. Great unit.

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

I am very pleased that Nikon has recently introduced the 8-15mm Fish-eye Zoom lens. This is a great lens to have on your full-frame camera. I used the Nikon’s first 180-degree fish-eye lens in 1966 and have been a follower of these images for decades. I own and have used the Nikkor 10.5mm fish-eye for ten years, but have missed the round 180-degree image. The new 8-15mm fish-eye zoom lens provides many opportunities to capture exciting and unusual images. The zoom capabilities to 15mm provide a wide-angle fish-eye look that fills the frame. I believe this is an important lens to have for a photographer who wants to move beyond the ordinary. Some examples of photographs that I have captured during my first month with the lens includes: An editorial photograph during the first stage production after a four million dollar theater remodeling A portrait of a beautiful young lady who has great self-esteem and was willing to pose for a fun image Photographing from inside a kids “Crawling Tunnel”. I revisited images of Arthur Rothstein, Farm Security Administration, photos of the 1930’s with the new Nikkor 8-15mm Fish-eye Zoom lens. A high school yearbook photograph of a dance team captures at 8mm for a round fish-eye image. All photographs copyrighted by Don Gorzek, 2017

8GB SDRAM is much better than 4GB in my DELL desktop computer.

First, 60W will probably meet your needs in a small video studio. I only use 2-8% of the output. Secondly, a standard modifier platform (Bowens' S mount), has saved me a great deal of time. The lower cost silent heads would only accept barndoors, gaffing tape and aluminum foil. Far Far easier to repurpose old modifiers or purchase new. Previously, I would have to retape the foil at inopportune times. SILENCE is critical for me. Recording a cast once correctly is worth all the post processing in the world. Nothing beats SILENCE.

It takes some getting used to. I always shoot it at EI 100. It has all the tonal range you need right there. It always requires underdevelopment though, anywhere from 8% -15%. The highlights blow out very easily, and this helps control them. Scratches easily, a bit softer than HP5. The lack of grain looks phenomenal at a large scale.

I just used the battery for the first time to shoot an 11 hour wedding day. I ran it down to 8% and it lasted me about 9.5 hours and around 2900 frames. They say it lasts 1350 or something like that but for me it was double.

Great replacement lamp for all of our instruments.
