Earliest Recorded String 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.

This mic sounds very nice for vocals, plucked string instruments, and woodwind instruments (at least that's what I've tried it on). I highly recommend it!

This a VERY good microphone especially for the price. It provides clear accurate sound of acoustical instruments. Being able to change the directional pattern is a great plus. It allows me to pickup just the instrument or the instrument and room reverberations when recording. The violin and viola musicians I have recorded love the sound this microphone produces (so far those are the only instruments I have recorded with it). It would be nice to be able to change the pattern of the mic without having to change the tip but is is not a big deal to switch tips. For the price this is a great microphone it compares very favorably with mics costing 2 to 3 times the price.

In the earliest days of the film era, I loved my Nikon 35/2.0. A few years back, I had picked up the 35/1.8 AFS because I could not see myself spending the money for the 35/1.4 AFS. I need this 35mm for events ( eg. weddings ) but not needing to shoot at 1.4 because most of pictures taken with the 35mm are around 5.6-8.0. Well, for the Z system, this lens is what I need. Sharp ( and sharper across the frame compared to the 35 AFS - very important for group pictures ) and not expensive ( yay ).. High recommended as part of a set of lenses for events.

As an amateur photographer and professional software developer, I have used memory cards from the earliest (smallest & slowest) to the newest and fastest as the technology progressed. But I have always used SanDisk. I have never had a Sandisk memory card failure for any type of card, Compact flash, SD, or micro SD in a camera, phone, music recorder or player, or being used to move data around from devices to computers. I've only used this new card for one large shoot on my Canon R5 so far, but I don't expect it will ever give me any trouble based on past experience.

I recently inherited almost 2000 family pictures, the earliest 1905, through the 1970s. The pics, mostly loose, are all odd sizes, not standardized like today. I settled on this album with 4x6 openings, bought blank 4x6 index cards, and mounted the pictures on the index cards to make the size uniform to fit the sleeves. It worked so well, I have just bought my 5th album. The albums are very sturdy and the leather will last. I have bought burgundy, navy blue, and hunter green, and they are all beautiful.

A quick way to not string cables across the stage.

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

Recorded audio sounds like you were actually there.

I like the softness of the string and when inside my ears. Great Sound!
