Uni Ball Alpha Gel Mechanical Pencil

Great lead supply for my mechanical pencil. These are very thick and so far, not a single has broken even when I extend a bit. Very happy with these lead refills.

Was looking for a smartphone/ tripod adapter with an Acraswiss plate to allow for one ball head that would allow my Sony Alpha camera & lens to be quickly interchanged with an iPhone 15 Pro Max. This product is not only a well known brand, it performs the desired task flawlessly.

As a filmmaker who likes to shoot outdoors, and likes to get audio of natural sounds, I've been wanting to get a Baby Ball for some time. I hesitated for quite a while because I was not sure it was worth the price. I have a Rode blimp for my shotgun microphone, and was able to use that to house my pencil microphone when needed. But it was a time-consuming and laborious process to switch out a 10 shotgun microphone for a five-inch cardioid pencil microphone. After purchasing Baby Ball Gag, it is easy to use my Behringer B-5 microphone outdoors--and to record the relatively faint sounds of insects and birdsong. I also find it useful for capture dialog in a quiet outdoor setting. I usually prefer the sound from the cardioid B-5, than that of the shotgun. I'm able to get a fuller, more nuanced recording of a person's voice. If you are a one-man-band, using a cardioid can be more forgiving than a shotgun, which will require a person to keep it pointed at the talent's mouth during the shoot. I also use it indoors when ceiling fans are in use. I'm about to begin working on a VLOG, and plan on using a combination of the B-5 with the Baby Ball, along with a lavalier microphone, to ensure the best possible sonic coverage (within my budget and setup). The Baby Ball Gag is THE solution to using pencil microphones out of doors. For me, a completely worthwhile purchase.

I put it on my UNI-LOC tripod, SUPER!

Nice looking gel for these lights!!!

Used with a gel, this thing pops!

Identical to the one that came with my Sony Alpha 9.

Nice pencil.

The best mechanical hard drive I had ever used.

I took my entire gel mess that was in the lid of my light kit and put it all into the Gel Roll. It makes my traveling a lot easier. I can hand the roll to a grip and have them look for the gels I need while I'm getting out the lights, we're not crowding around the same case. Plus, I like the yellow straps and handle, it makes it easy to spot on a dark set. I should have bought one long ago.
