I was checking out a new lens and was disappointed with sharpness, started switching lenses on camera and setting iso higher to be sure I wasn't looking at camera shake, while I do need additional tests, and I do need to put camera on tripod, and turn VR off I've come to conclusion that my circular polarizer is biggest contributor to lack of sharpness. Yes it's a low cost one that came in a kit or 4 filters. My question is what brand of filters do you trust to give you best image sharpness. For reference camera is Nikon D7500 and lenses iv'e tried all set at F8 and 135 mm zoom are Nikon 18-140, Nikon 18-300 mm, very old Tokina 24-200, and Tamron 100-400mm

Actually, towards the end of the video, Dr Mikovitz said something that Dr Rosenthal wrote in her book "An American Sickness" a few years back - said book being about how the health care system in the US has turned to such a shit show. In essence, government agencies as well as businesses (FDA, hospital corporations, AMA, big pharma and b=insurance) have colluded to churn money rather than work to actually help patients. Read the book - learn something (warning - it is rather aggravating to see what crap those players pull).

But here is my point - unlike some turd in his mommy's basement wearing bunny slippers and sputing "theories", or even newspaper articles (which can be full of crap but make a "correction" in an issue a week later, on page 56 below the fold, and get away with it), in our litigious society you'd best believe a lot more fact checking is done by the publisher to avoid getting their shorts sued off.

Youtube, owned by Google, is certainly left-leaning - as are the other social media titans. Remember Jack Dorsey (founder of Twitter) actually admitted a few years back that they had tweaked the algorithms to suppress conservative tweets. It seems leftists have a fundamental philosophy of "we know what's best for you!" and "government is a good thing" (government is a drain on society in that it produces nothing - but a necessary evil in some cases - the question is has the US government become far too large). - and so, high atop their insulated towers, they bestow upon the little people the nuggets of wisdom they deem appropriate to that end. ANd hold back that which they deem to be "inappropriate".

Again, I invite you to read that American Sickness book - get a sense of how and, more importantly, why, "the system" sucks completely

With all the turmoil in the market today this might be some good advice. For all of you with any money left, be aware of the next expected mergers so that you can get in on the ground floor and make some BIG bucks.

7.) Grey Poupon and Docker Pants are expected to become: PouponPants.
