Gs 300 Rear View Mirror

These radios are amazing. Installed in my Jeep above my rear view mirror and I am stoked about it. It’s small enough to not be in the way but is great for communicating with fellow Jeep’s. I used the ghost antenna so that it didn’t get wiped out by limbs on the trail. I’m thinking of purchasing the 6db antenna to help increase my range. I feel you can’t go wrong with this radio! Will be purchasing another for my sons Jeep.

In the mid-1980s I bought a Nikon 7.5mm f5.6 circular fisheye. Being an older design (1966) its rear elements protruded into the mirror box. Fortunately my F3 had a hard physical mirror lockup. The external viewfinder for this lens attached to the camera on the original Nikon F/F2’s proprietary flash shoe. I was able to buy an AS-3 flash adapter for the F3. With the F3s mirror locked up I also had to use an hand-held light meter. With amazing depth of foield focusing was never an issue. The old zoom lens had six filters on a wheel. One was a skylight and the other five were strongly colored for B&W film. While I liked the circular results, using the lens was a hassle. I often had my shoes or forehead in the picture. On a sunny day, my images suffered from solar flares. My new Nikon 8-15mm AF-S fisheye has none of those old problems. It fits on my DSLRs without any problem. It doesn’t need an external finder or separate light meter. At the 8mm setting (and lens hood off) I get a circular image very much like the vintage fisheye. The new lens is faster and focusable. Like my 14mm f2.8 Nikkor, this zoom uses gel filters inserted in the rear of the lens. I really don’t like this arrangement. This fisheye is similar in weight and size to the 14mm lens. I am also not fond of the electronic aperture control first seen on G lenses. Without an aperture ring one cannot use this zoom on older cameras. At the longer end of the zoom range (12-15mm) the image fills the (FX) frame and lens hood stays out of the way. This image is similar to my inexpensive Bower (Samyang?) 8mm fisheye with its fixed lens hood (and DX coverage). So far I haven’t used my new lens much but I think I will like it.

With 2 powered Sonos subs and 2 Era 300 rear speakers the sound could not be better!

Used it to adapt an old Celestron 300 mm mirror lens to my GH3. It works. Snug fit and no light leaks. All metal and no plastic. Good job.

I bought a pair of Era 300's to use as rear surrounds and upgraded from a pair of One's....Wow!!! So much more sound and well worth the spend. It's taken my movie watching experience almost beyond the cinema experience in my setup. If you're on the fence about doing what I have done, go ahead and do it. You won't be disappointed.

This works well as a head strap but it also works if you want to use it to wrap around something that may be easily scratched. This could mean the side view mirror of a car or maybe just to wrap around your pet. Over all, this product is one to have handy.

This rear cam is small enough to not interfere with your view out your back window. The picture quality is great!!!

love this gs best 1 i have had so far it was so easy to set up

I purchased the Era 300 to replace the Fives that I've been using for my rear surround, and they're great. Before moving them to the family room, I used them for a week just listening to music. Spotify doesn't support Dolby Atmos yet, so that was bummer, but Apple does. Songs recorded Dolby Atmos show the true potential justifying the cost.

I have a small music room. Use the 2 era 300's as my rear speakers, and 2 play 5's as front speakers. Love it!
