When I first heard about Arsenal, it sounded like a neat addition. I wanted to purchase one and told my wife. She asked me how it works and how using it would benefit my photographs. Then she walked away and I thought about my response and hers. I decided against buying one because gone price tag is too excessive. My wife really knows how to keep my photographs in check. Also, she dies know how to control my bouts of GAS!
Happy Shooting!

my suggestion is "please don't even think about buying this product. it is a scam.i purchased it a while ago.it simply does not work as the manufacturer and their technical staff claim.their technical staff do not have a clue about this product.they come with some vague explanations as how this product is supposed to work in your camera but why it does not work. i was told that this product should work with my fuji X-T1 but the technician does not know the specifications of my my camera or how my camera operates.i was very frustrated with their tactics and i finally returned it for a refund.i am surprised that they are still trying to ell this useless product and they are still in business.the new DSLR cameras do exactly what the manufaturer of ARSENAL falsely claim.

Arsenal was originally funded as a Kickstarter campaign, and like so many ambitious ideas promoted and crowdfunded on Kickstarter and Indiegogo, the sales pitch far out-promoted the final product... many failed to even deliver a product, leaving the project backers empty-handed.
I personally lost $800 on a failed campaign promising to re-create the Myers-Optic 75mm "P 75 II f1.9" - suffice to say, it was the last crowdfunding campaign I funded.
Similar disappointments in other campaigns led me to abandon my faith in crowdfunding altogether, though there were a few that worked out, including the Litra brand portable LED lights.
As for Arsenal itself, just think about it: companies like Sony, Nikon, and Cannon have decades of experience, teams of engineers, and pretty deep pockets to fund the development of the algorithms that go into developing the software in their cameras. I'm not convinced that some lone-wolf engineer could develop a product that vastly improves their AUTO settings, with a one-size-fits-all device that could otherwise be built INTO a camera body: were it truly as remarkable as claimed, it seems like a camera company would license it or otherwise build the software and sensors into their camera bodies.

No, and wouldn't wany wany experience. Quit looking for the magic elixir and simply learn how your camera works. You are the intelligent assistant.

By far, the very best advice. You can say the same about Lightroom.

Have one and it mostly sits on my shelf. Difficult to use if not on a tripod. Just my experience.

Warning! RE: SAS.
When asked by your wife "What do you think of these shoes?"
DO NOT ask "Are they comfortable?"
