Middle East Wind Instruments

I bought the lense about a month and a half ago, since then that is the only lense I have used in all my trips (Portugal, Middle east, Sri Lanka and Back to the US) No other lenses beats the quality, portabilty and speed of this 28mm. I do carry a second body with a 70-200mm VRII but for 90% of my photos I use my A7s with this great lenses.

I live in middle east, this product was shipped to me from US, i was expecting the scratches/breaks to happen. It is safely packed and delivered exactly to my place. I have a 6" celestron telescope and this mount is just fit my needs with all my attachments on, stayed as a solid mountain.

I am currently deployed to the middle east and use this case to move around my photo equipment and electronics. This is a solid well bit travel case. I can throw my camera equipment and laptop in this case and move about the desert worry free. The case is able to keep all dust and sand out of it as well as stand up to the abuse from other gear and ammo beating on it. Great case.

I purchased this as a way for my wife to track me while I was traveling in the Middle East. Although half of my trip changed due to the current situation, I felt comfortable know that if She needed she could locate me.

Winter is here in the Middle East with mornings at around 5 degree C. Wore them yesterday for the first time for morning marathon and boy they were good. The magnets are a clever idea.

The one that I just bought from B+H will be my third one: the first one I gave away to a friend in the Middle East, the second one lasted me for 27 years or so. I've been using it for both SLR's and video and I have it with me whenever I go out to take pictures. The only minor thing I can think about is that you can not replace the ball-head when it is worn-out as happend to me this time, but let's be real, replacing it after 27 years.... no problem.

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.

I like wind instruments. This is that and so much more. Nice features make playing sound like the real thing. Tried it all but haven't used it as a midi controller yet

Very east to use and hook up.
