Left Hand Guitar Position Technique

I used this to store my daughter’s guitar in a standing position so that it doesn't keep falling. It’s excellent.

Well - constructed lense that yields sharp images. Hand holdable with good technique, even better on a tripod. Highly recommended.

This was purchased from B+H and recieved when a friend hand carried it over. (no she wasnt thrilled to learn it was 'only' 21lbs boxed, and not the 32lbs stated on Carton) Used it straight out of the box, only change was a wimberly foot to replace the Nikon foot. Amazingly sharp, the colours and Bokeh are superb. Whereas the 400mm 2.8 didnt impress at first (it took a while to be comfortable with it, and get the sort of sharpness i was looking for) the 600mm has performed amazingly well from the outset. perhaps the technique learnt with the 400 being the reason. Its not handholdable, (if you are lucky it is for about 1 shot for mere mortals), and benefits from a wimberly head or monopod. VR does help at times, but i generally switch it off and shoot wide open on AP, (thats what i bought it for)quality from edge to edge is absolutely superb, and provided you have good long lens technique, this is a truly amazing lens which is worth every one of the lots of cents it costs!!

I like to keep a few of these on hand as spares, because they do eventually wear out, or sometimes pop off and become lost. There is a bit of technique involved with putting them on, but after you have done it a time or two, it is no problem, and it is a very occasional thing, anyway.

This Lift Vertical Left Handed mouse fits my needs perfectly: great design, quality made, right size for left hand (I am 5'4 male, 140 lb. with regular hand size.) The moment I inserted Lift mouse's USB-A adapter to my iMac 21.5 2017 model, without needing any additional app. installation, it works right away. I am right-handed. I used to use Apple Magic Trackpad with my left hand just to train my left hand, and Logitech MX Vertical Right Handed mouse with my right hand. After more than 6 months, my left wrist started hurting, so I switched the MX Vertical to my left hand and Apple Magic Trckpad to my right hand; My left wrist pain was gone, but using the MX Vertical Right Handed mouse with my left hand was quite awkward: The scrolling wheel, the left and right buttons are not designed for the left hand to use. I am right-handed, but I always use my left hand to do some non-dominant hand tasks just for self-training purposes. Since I started using Logitech Lift Vertical Left Handed Ergonomic Wireless Mouse (Graphite) with my left hand, the scrolling wheel works softly and smoothly, the mouse size fits my left hand perfectly, the left and right buttons are very responsive, moving the mouse on the mouse pad accurately acts on the computer screen. My left wrist feels normal. The price of $69.99 for this Lift Vertical Left Handed wireless mouse is acceptable, and I feel the nice quality and the well design of this mouse is worthy of this price. I will definitely purchase it again and I will recommend it.

Use this for lighting technique.

I am a singer songwriter and perform regularly in a guitar duo. My legs have been getting very sore after a couple of hours of standing so I decided to sit half the time. This bench is not too heavy, very sturdy, easy to adjust, adjusts within the perfect height range with a firm but not too hard seat. It also folds up easily so it doesn't take up too much space on my equipment dolly. It is just as good at home or for a gig. My only complaint would be that when it is collapsed there is nothing to lock it in the folded position so it can easily flop open. I opted to use a small belt type of strap with a Fastex buckle which works okay but not great. I might put my mind to it in the future to make some sort of clip that would hold it firmly in the collapsed position. Other than that it is a great tool right out of the box.

You can use it nearly anywher and even when closed it can help steady the camera when you hold it your left hand.

When the family gets together, which is not that often with the pandemic, someone wants to take a group shot on their phone. Then you have to figure out how to position the phone and who gets left out. This solves those problems beautifully.

On my 2nd one; 1st lasted over 8 years. (Also have a right-handed one.) Got my first one around the same time as getting a Kinesis Freestyle keyboard, and this mouse took longer to acclimate to. It's not just that it's vertical mouse, it's a different shape. Usable initially, but comfortable in a few days ... so much so, that I had to get one for my work computer. Not convinced that it would be helpful? Hold out your mouse arm, straight away from your body, and rotate it till your hand is in position to use a normal mouse. Now rotate that same arm so the thumb is in the highest position of any digit. Which position is more comfortable? Extra buttons: Top button is for left clicks, middle for right clicks, bottom button is for double left clicks. Thumb controls forward & reverse web page navigation. And the scroll wheel displays the desktop. Thought these extra buttons were gimmicks, but now I cannot live without them.
