Yes, you are right. It could be right for you. I realized my presumption in declaring it was not too late and the time limit to edit had passed so I couldn't delete that part.

I've...

The playpod design isn't very good. This knock off (no longer available) is better because it has a slot allowing you to slide the tripod head as needed depending on the way your camera balances...

"I was about to say... this is a great ad for a drone, not a ballhead."

That's what I kept thinking through the whole video - "Why do they keep showing POV shots that have nothing to do with what...

"the pistol grip on the below linked tripod"

That looks like a good option, especially since it is ambidextrous. The Manfrotto version I linked to is for right hand use only, which limits its...

Sorry, it's not for you. It's not much more one handed than a regular ball head. It's made to be used with two hands - they even say so in the marketing. One to hold the camera to adjust camera...

Dunno, I refuse to buy any camera support products unless I see the product maker has access to a fancy sports car and a camera drone... So the video totally sold me on this head that won't ship...

They don't need the $18,000 they claim to be raising on the Kickstarter. I'd say they spent significantly more than that making the self-indulgent video. (Dude, how can we charge renting sports...

" don't know where this "24fps is best" obsession started, but that frame rate is terrible for action and panning."

People don't even realize that the issues this low frame rate are so bad that...

According to the article you have to have version version 7.2 specifically. Google doesn't necessarily roll out the updates to everyone at the same time. So you may have the "latest" available to...

If I remember correctly, Google prevents server overloads by rolling out updates over a period of time.

I don't believe the Astro mode is meant to be used hand held. It takes multiple quarter minute long exposures to combine and needs to resolve fine detail, so unlike the Night Sight mode for low...

No update for the Pixel 3a yet. At least not for me. Version 6.3.026..../Aug 27, 2019 is listed as current rather than 7.2.

Yes, the fancy video for the kickstarter probably cost more than the kickstarter's minimum funding goal.

"When's the last time you saw a vlogger wearing a headphone? "

Never, but I'd assume many do check their takes, and you need a headphone jack to review video and sound on camera. I'd want it for...

Specifically missing: 10 bit video

The Sony stills division is clearly deliberately withholding features to avoid cannibalizing their video division. The GH5 and the BlackMagic "Pocket" Cinema...

The fact that lensrentals has a sophisticated in-house testing and repair facitlity gives me a lot of confidence in renting from them. They clean the sensors *every* rental. And they can evaluate...

@Zoom Zoom Zoom writes "Shoot RAW with a proper camera app in manual mode, use a long exposure and then fix the image yourself. Better yet, use a real camera instead of a stupid phone with a...

As AXYZE notes, the Google Night Sight mode isn't just multi-frame noise reduction, it uses sophisticated processing and the camera's motion sensors to decide what parts of the image to use, as...

"False images should always come with some kind of warning, generate false expectations and distort reality."

Just choosing certain angles that look better than others is already "false" in your...

"Do you know what the best sky is for a shot? The REAL sky at the moment you shoot."

Why? No, really. Why? It's a photo, not reality. For journalism, sure, it shouldn't be altered. But for...
