Logitech 750I Camera Manual

Works great with logitech camera.

As a previous owner of a Garmin in reach Explorer+, and more recently a Montana 750i, I am now the proud owner of a mini – 2 and I love it! The Explorer + worked ok to track my activities in the wild, but the keyboard was problematic, and the phone app interface was less than adequate. Two years ago, I purchased a Montana 750i. It’s great, it’s a tracker app, it’s a GPS, it does everything. The one thing I learned when using the Montana is - I do not need everything when I’m out. It’s heavy. I Don’t need a separate camera. My phone and my separate GPS on both my mountain bike and motorcycle take care of my GPS needs. All I really need is a good tracker that can get me whether if I need it. The purchase of the mini-2 and then just learning about the Garmin messenger, phone app, make the combination of the two exactly what I need. And the mini, too, I can wear on my body if I get separated from my two wheelers. The battery lasts a very long time, in the messenger program on my phone does everything I needed to do so I do not really even need to touch the mini-2. And, the mini- 2 costs half as much as the Montana 750i and about the same as the explorer+. This may be the last in-reach device I buy, unless you can put it in a really nice watch with long battery life and easy recharge capability. I’ll be buying that if you can accomplish that Mr. Garmin. Thanks again!

This is my fourth inReach device. I started with the original Mini, gave it away and got the 66i, gave it to a friend and got the 750i. I loved the 750i for the camera and touchscreen, but it is big and heavy. I was going on a rugged five-night backpacking trip to a remote valley in the Sierras, so I bought and activated the Messnger. I'll keep the 750i and just use it as a handheld navigator. The Messnenger sends and receives messages faster (more promptly) than any inReach I've used. I think it's the antenna design and the transnit power, but I'm not sure. I just know it sends and receives quickly. I used it daily during my trip just to touch base with my wife and the sends seemed to only take seconds. On a few occasions her replies were very quick, limited by her response time not the device. Also, I love the Messenger App on my Android phone. It's well designed and very easy to use to configure the device and to send and receive messages. My favorite inReach ever and highly recommended.

very useful, found out things about the camera the manual does not show.

I needed a webcam to use for working from home. I was skeptical at first that a small webcam such as this could produce a great image but I purchased anyway. After hooking the camera up and installing the optional Logitech Camera Settings app, I was blown away at the quality and field of view this camera offered. The 1080p resolution is crystal clear, even when zooming in. The zoom and pan options in the Logitech Camera Settings app were a nice touch to allow you to zoom in on yourself or pull focus on something else in view without having to physically move the camera. One thing I was happy to see is that this camera doesn't do that weird zoom/auto-focus thing that many Logitech cameras do where the person goes completely out of focus for a few seconds while it tries to auto-focus. I have a headset that I use for my video conferencing but the camera includes a microphone, should you need one. So far, I have zero complaints on the product. Overall, I would highly recommend this webcam for it's quality and features.

I need to set the camera on manual focus though as I can't see to make sure that I'm focusing where I want to.

Ok, I will be honest, it’s expensive for what is in essence a sort of novelty lens but... you really do get what you pay for. The optics are excellent, it’s super sharp edge to edge. The AF is very fast on my Lumix G85 and G9. It’s so compact and light you’ll have no problems tossing into your spare pocket to use if that “just in case” moment arrives. Back in my days of film I used those cheap Spirotone Fisheyes which were ok but just that, ok. This lens is for serious use. The build quality is solid, which you’d expect for this price. I considered getting one of the Manual Focus Fisheyes from Rokinon/Samyang (they are the same) and they are pretty good quality and far less expensive but I found the manual focusing to be too stiff and they really are fully manual lenses as they don’t communicate any data to the camera (f stop) so you are always shooting in Manual mode, not the end of the world but not as convenient for my type of shooting. I’m a big user of DXO PhotoLab so another key point for me was it is a lens recognized in DXO PhotoLabs Profile Modules which is important to me. It allows me to control how much correction I want from keeping the full fisheye effect to ultra wide correction. Lastly and many people don’t know this but the lens has a built in Gel Filter holder on the mount. All you need to due is cut your gel filter to the correct size and slide it in the holder before mounting the lens on the camera body. So bottom line if you budget allows this is by far the best fisheye lens for Micro 4/3 systems.

Wireless Manual Power Control flash is the best way to shoot and with the TT5 and AC3 on camera, manual flash power can be adjusted at the camera. There's no need to stress when manual power needs changing. No need to hike around to all of the lights. And with the TT5 on camera, the camera and lights can be triggered together with a Sekonic Light Meter.

Logitech is amazing

It's a Logitech product so it just works.
