Britt Iowa Weather Underground

I've been using this as my long glass almost exclusively for nearly two years as a photographer for The University of Iowa athletic department. I'd heard great things about it and couldn't wait to try it out, and I've not been disappointed. The extra reach is great for sports like football and soccer, but I can also use it on the baseline of a basketball game to shoot as tight as I can when the action is at the other end of the floor. The only drawback I've encountered is at night, where I would still prefer either a 400 f/2.8 or a 600 f/4. Overall, I'd give it a 4.75/5.

Here in Iowa it can be very winding and especially near a large lake. This reflector is easy to maneuver, light to carry, easy to direct and feather the light. Set up is pretty simple and easy. I like the fact that I can collapse this reflector and store it in my VW Jetta. I have used the Westcott colapsible style reflectors with poor results. The fabrics are good, however the frames in the wind flap in the wind and its tough to get good results. These are pricy but they work. For simple use, I mount this loosely to a Mathews Hollywood head on a light stand and then direct the light where I want/need. I looked at other options and for me this was the best.

In the past I've set up stereo systems in homes and the best I ever found was a speaker system by Iowa it was all electric it was only 1 in thick speakers this bose this little box fills my whole apartment with the sound I don't know what Bose did but it's beautiful it's true sound you can even hear when a guitar player slides the g-string it's just like those electric Iowa speakers that are installed 40 years ago

I have two of these. I use then for my APAP equipment. I have one at my home in Texas and one at my home in Iowa. When I travel, I put my APAP, humidifier, power brick, mask, and hose in the Commando bag. The size is perfect for that, and the bag is also a perfect fit in my personal item space under the seat in front of me. I can also get a couple of sandwiches, some granola bars and my prescription meds in the bag, along with other miscellaneous items, such as spare batteries, my Nook, and usually a couple of bananas. If I leave the humidifier out on business trips, I can get a couple of camera lenses in there. I carry one camera body and an 18-200 lens in my backpack.

These binoculars have served me well over the past few months, birdwatching in forests and prairies of Iowa. Vortex has an excellent reputation for a Chinese-manufactured product, and I have to say that the quality of these has met my expectations. The carrying pack also keeps these binos very secure and simple to carry along. I wear it on cycling trips and can whip these out at a moments notice. I'll attach a couple digibinned images of a rare egret in my area, needless to say I've been very impressed with the performance of these binoculars.

Great vest. I'm using it in an underground coal mine. It's like having an extra pair of hands. It distributes weight evenly. I use it for batteries, flashes, all sorts of accessories. There are no pockets for big lenses, but that's O.K. It would make the vest too heavy and cumbersome. It's pretty good at repelling lime and coal dust and water and is not likely to tear easily. Pockets are lined with soft material, which is easy on lenses. These vests are a little pricey, but worth it. They're professional gear and are made for rugged use.

Solid takes abuse perfect for poking the gopro into strange places underwater and underground.

So far so good! Using as a backup power supply for an underground dog fence and so far is working great.

We mostly use it to protect our lens for our camera at work, being as we drag the camera through steam tunnels, in mud trenches, inside underground vaults, and through all sorts of other environments. The filter screws on firmly to the end of the lens and protects the lens from scratches, dirt, dust, etc. without distorting any of the pictures.

I use 50+ of these routinely for delicate electronic sensors that are buried underground in very wet Florida environments for over 6 months at a time. I love the color-changing pattern on the exterior of the pack that let's me now when it's due for replacement or refreshing in a microwave. I used to use the metal type that needed to be baked for 3 hours, but those too long to replenish and were small in comparison.
