Moving Ball Sega Sonic Arcade Machines

This has been great for printing decals for our arcade machines.

Moving from a pair of Macs with Thunderbolt 1 ports to a pair with Thunderbolt 3 ports, I needed a way to quickly migrate files form the old machines to the new machines. While not cheap, it did the job with flying colors. The alternative would have been from Time Machine backups over Wi-Fi which would take many hours...I've done it before. This adapter allowed me to transfer the entire contents of the machines in a half hour each. I also own a single Thunderbolt 2 SSD and this adapter allows me to keep using it with my new machines. If you're a Mac user like me who only upgrades to new machines once every ten years or so, this adapter is worth it's weight in gold.

I needed a 1TB MicroSD card for a Fenrir ODE that I was going to use with a Sega Saturn that I owned that had a non working disc drive. Loaded up my games on here and it worked like a charm.

My second time purchasing this ball head. It's the one I go to for heavy lens and cameras. Moving into Star trackers and this does the trick.

This take a little bit to get use to, but once u master it I promise u, u won't use anything else. Its so much nicer than moving the mouse around all u do is use the ball located in the top to move the cursor and the ring around it to scroll the a page. Very nice mouse.

Moving from still photography to video isn't that hard BUT if you are using a ball head on your tripod your movements are going to be jerky and jumpy. Called @ talked with Orlando and ... the VT-2100 shows up and now I'm filming like I should be smooth and no jerk or jump movements.

The ball head on the tripod makes it easy to adjust equipment without moving the tripod itself. JOBY products have great results.

I thought getting a gimbal was out of the question until I saw the price on this unit. I ordered an extra plate, XLong for my 150-600mm lens and it balances easily w/ that and the plate included. Check your tripod head mount screw size , if yours is 1/4-20 be sure to order the 3/8-1/4-20 adapter bushing....item # OB1039/ OB-1039 ($2.49) Adds a bit of weight to your set up, but the advantages over a ball head for fast moving shooting is noticable in the shots Im getting, much sharper. Esp when working with long lenses, the balance factor is killer. Stays right where I put it without even tightening, so when the subject moves, so can I without undoing any balance like moving a ball head, leaving you without any stabilization, unless you have super fast hands to undo and tighten all the time. This is a game changer.

I recently purchased this ball head to handle my Canon 500mm f/4 lens when working with non-fast moving subjects. Mounted on my heavy duty Sirui tripod, this head is able to allow fine control with the 500mm and makes it easier to transport the tripod without the weight of the gimbal mount. No ball head will work for fast moving object such as birds in flight, but if you are shooting relatively statics subjects with a long lens this is the head to have in your kit.

Sometimes it is difficult to qualify excellent products. This ball head is easy to be used, is beautiful, is sturdy and is very stable. When you put your hands on it, it will speak for itself. I use it with a Manfrotto 117B tripod and I can say that, they work nice together. These devices are heavy, weighting 9.0 kg when in bag for transportation. They are absolutely still when in use with medium weight equipments and it is easy to find the system balance moving the plate back and forward. I love them so much because they always give me completely still pictures. They are perfect when there is no need for moving them from place to place very frequently or for carrying them in hands to a further distance. When I was searching for a tripod and a ball head, I wished something more massive for perfect and still pictures and I got it. In the place where I live, there is no option for buying good carbon fiber tripods, so I could not compare them at all and thus I decided to buy this one and I would do it again without any hesitation, because they have helped me to reach my purposes and I am very glad with them. I consider them a good choice, although heavy.
