One hopes the screws are the same.

I bought a box with funny looking metal pieces sticking out of it. Is this one of those CIA mind control things I've heard of?

I was always a book person until last year I bought a Kindle Paperwhite and switched over to electronic books only. I do most of my reading in bed before I go to sleep and the Kindle is very light, and also easy for me to adjust text size for my old person eyes. I like that my bookmarks are stored so I can pull books up on my iPhone or the PC Kindle software and pick up where I left off. Before the used bookstores in my area shut down I sold my books when I was done with them so it's not like I was building a personal library. Switching to ebooks has been nothing but an improvement for me. I still have my very small collection of books that I love (two or three shelves) but that's enough for me.

Right, I immediately imagined what you're talking about after responding. I wonder if my monopod is strong enough, maybe I'll look into a sturdier one with a grip near the bottom. I could even attach the Atomos monitor near the base for better monitoring. Thanks! Comedy option: My featherweight graphite boom microphone pole.

Why would I use a monopod, isn't a gimbal fundamentally just for stabilizing moving shots? Especially with a load like that, the monopod gives you a bit more to hold on to, plus you can use it to lift the whole thing up high for faux crane shots or get it really low to the ground without killing your back. The screw mount on the bottom should be a standard 1/4” screw so it’ll go onto any tripod type deal

I would never buy this. I just kept hearing/reading that it was actually good so why not. I'm wondering what cocktails could be made. I usually just drink bourbon and irish. edit - it's a peanut butter liqueur, I didn't taste any whiskey. It was sweeter than I expected but vanilla, apple, and other whiskeys are also sweet. It's def. for mixing. Good peanut butter flavor if you're into that. colas has a new favorite as of 02:15 on Dec 20, 2019 |

Got myself an Xmas present. 5.5 quart enameled cast iron Dutch oven. The 5.0, 5.5, and 7.0 were all the same price. But the 5.5 was the enameled one.
