Band Instruments In The Form Of A Comet

I got this lens - in no small part - to photograph Comet NEOWISE. I wanted a little more reach - the comet appears small - but something fast. I haven't had much chance to use it beyond this but it seems sharp and focuses nicely.

I have had some form of Aftershokz/Shokz for several years now and absolutely love them. I even gave my staff their own one year for Christmas. However, with my short hair, the band was always a struggle and wished Shokz would come up with a version without the band. While not bone conduction, I've still gotten my wish with open ear and no earbuds blocking sounds around me. Not to mention the comfort; I forget I have them on at times. Thanks Shokz, I love the Openfit!!

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

I was searching for years a way to get my 30 years old Comet PMT 1200W battery pack flash on the road with my DSLR for outside portrait. The Hasselblad (film camera at the time) allowed my to get a shallow depth of field because of the 1/500 sync and the medium format lens with a shallower depth of field than 35 mm optics at the same aperture. But with a DSLR syncing at 1/200 (Canon 5d series), if I wanted to underexpose the ambient light with a bright sunny day, I was ending up at f/11-16 not that much of a bokeh.. ; ) When I learned about the Phottix Odin II combo I gave it a try As usual I received my order in Canada way before expected (2 days..and it's free.. ; ) Unpacked the transmitter and receiver, read the instructionsthe older I get the more I read.. ; ) And without having to play with the ODS (adjustment to find your optimum high speed sync with another flash than Canon or Nikon), it synced my 30 years old Comet up 1/8000 right out of the box I went outside the next day to test it with a bright sunny day (B&H doesn't provide one on arrival of my gear.. ; ) and asked my kid to ride his electrical scooter as fast as he could..1/8000 later, I think I have a winner, big time ! Yes I'm sure that it won't be as crisp as a high sync speed Broncolor or another Elinchrom or whatever is now the king pin of flash duration, but for $400 it sure revive my 30 years old Comet that is now going for another 30 years of service ! B&H your rock !

I bought this to protect my comet antenna analyzer .. after cutting out foam the analyzer fits perfectly and has room for accessories and connector/adapters. It does a great job to protect my expensive equipment. When I build a GO BOX I will certainly look at Nanuk products. Best price i found on the web, shipping was reasonable.

Great replacement lamp for all of our instruments.

Haven't used them yet , but am sure they will securely hold my instruments down .

What else can be said about the 57? Instruments, vocals, everything.

I have only had a chance to take this out to use a couple times but I am so far very happy with the results. I was able to take some very nice shots of comet neowise with sharp stars when shooting at f/2.8. Would highly recommend this lens for the price.

Received 2 weeks ago. Very easy to set up and get going. After the second night I  was able to find comet 46P Wirtanen with the help of Heavens Above. I am looking forward to using it as a travel guided mount. The only trouble I have is my iPhone wants to jump back to my home wi-fi requiring reconnecting mid session. It should not be a problem when in the field.
