WTB: tripod leg covers

The real advantage to wrapping the upper section of your tripod legs if for when you Cary your tripod over your shoulder. Hard carbon fiber will bruise your shoulder. Wrap with pipe insulation from Lowe’s and good to go


OMG! I'm 70 and have carried BOTH aluminum AND carbon fiber tripods and monopods on my shoulders for years! Is everyone today a woosie? The issue my be confort or warmth, but neither has made me use a pad on anything except aluminum. Best of luck.

WTB: tripod leg covers
Longlens24 wrote:
I have pool noodle and it is also (like foam pipe wrap) too thick. The wrap is really to protect the leg since carbon fiber does not dent like aluminum(dents but usable) but can crack and then shatter with impacts ( walls, counters, etc.) I was on a workshop and another participant cracked his high quality gitzo carbon fiber tripod leg when it accidentally impacted a wooden table corner in the hotel lobby. Neoprene is relatively inewxpensive, but neoprene tripod leg covers are very costly.


WOW! I have had my Gitzo CF tripod and monopod for over 30 years and have never done any damage even though both have been struck many times. I have never been concerned about this and never will be. If you are that worried then spend a few extra bucks for the piece-of-mind. Best of luck.

On a separate but related issue, I ask Trix if the Samsung T7 can interface with a USB 3.0 PORT.
Thank you.


I know I'm not TRIX, but YES the T7 that I was looking at on B&H 2TB for $165 does. Best of luck.

I have both a Samsung T5 and T7 for many years. Both excellent. B&H has the 2TB version of the T7 on sale right now for $165. Best of luck.

Printing B&W
I agree with AzPicLady. Unless you have the printer and knowledge to do this, outsource. There are too many good national compies to mention them all. AdaromaPix, WHCC, Millers, Bay Photo to name just a few others. If your looking for good quality, don't price shop. Best of luck.

problem with Lightroom/photoshop/YouTube
What CHG_CANON said. Sounds to me like you have a computer issue, but you gave us no information to assist you. Best of luck.

I would suggest that you look into Samsung T7 or T9, which are available from B&H for as low as $165 right now for the 2 TB version. I have both a T5 and a T7 which I have used for tethered shooting for more than a few years. Very reliable. Best of luck.

Lightroom tethering does not recognize my Nikon Z8.

IFFY?


IFFY, in this case, means sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The version of Apple's OS, the version of LrC and the camera firmware play a role. If anything is changed, this will, sometimes, stop working/not work. You know IFFY! Best of luck.

Lightroom tethering does not recognize my Nikon Z8.

If you are using a MacBook the problem is likely with the operating system; this is a known issue. I had this same problem just a couple of weeks ago. I've since had updates to the OS and was just able to connect a Z7ii although LR had to be relaunched in rosetta mode. You might want to check and see if you have the latest version of software and firmware for you computer and camera. The following links may also be of some help. The second link covers a workaround for the OS until the camera manufacturers catch up with firmware updates. I did not try it myself but would have had I a real need.

Good luck, resolving these problems is part of the fun (if it can be made to work).

The LATEST version of the Apple OS is 14.3.1! This issue has been IFFY for quite sometime. Best of luck!

For further help, please provide more information. Versions of ALL software involved (including OS). What Platform. What camera firmware? Type of cable? Connected to what port on camera? On computer? Best of luck.

Compared two apps for denoise
My personal choice is LrC and i's Denoise function. Cost me nothing extra and does a FANTASTIC job. All my PP is done on my Mac Studio Ultra which is extremely fast. Best of luck.

Camera straps: standard or added features?
FWIW, I use Black Rapid and/or Peak Design camera straps depending on my mission. Best of luck.

Differences in MBs ....again/continued
Not sure why you can't look through the viewfinder with the 70-200. I've been using that lens for yers and have had no problem. I suggest you practice and I suspect you will become accustomed to it. Am I missing something? Best of luck.

MAC OS Sonoma 14.3.1
fredpnm wrote:
No issues with updating to 14.3.1. In fact I have never experienced any issues with upgrading any of my OS machines be it laptop, mini, iPad, airpods or even the Ultra 2 watch.

Good luck...


I'm guessing you don't really use too many of the features. Most recently tethering a Nikon Z8 or Z9 using a Mac AND Adobe LrC has not been a lot of fun. Other than that, I have seen no issues as I have my new MacBook Air M2 using it and my Studio 1 version back, to be upgraded within the hour. Best of luck.
