What mic do you use cos it’s damn good

I feel like 24-105 with some fast primes might be the way to go.

Did I miss the setting for pro default? What do you all use for it?

Thank you for your honest opinion I was so conflicted between these two 😭

I had a dedicated power and x2 Philips, and its same or better sound, to get better sound quality u have to have no and and pay cash like 500 euro+

Just keep both lol

Great video and pocket journal!

can the Kindle 11th Gen be read at night without ambient light (i.e. airplane cabin with all lights off and shutters closed)?

I got the 32gb one and it's so good!

Nice ideas! thanks, appreciated 🤙🏿

The only cons are a lack of Warm Light and waterproofing. They're the only reasons why I ended up going for the latest Kindle Paperwhite, otherwise, this represents great value for money.

You did not show the video / picture comparison 😮

The primary reason I opted for the paperwhite is its waterproofness. I use it a lot for backpacking and the paperwhite works fine after getting wet...

I got the Paperwhite bc tiktok said so, for the warmth, bigger screen and waterproof. I returned it after a month, it was too heavy, i didn’t like the flat slab screen and I never used the warm setting. At first I thought it was a poor purchase and it will dust in my drawers or that I just prefer paper. I got the basic a while later and I love it. I bought zero books since, I walk and read everywhere, i read at night and by the pool and it is amazing. Definitely prefer the basic.

Worst phone camera I have ever used 🤮 the iPhone 11 had a better camera 💀 I’m so pissed

So after a few years playing with different setups.... Laptops (gaming and netbook like), desktops and tablets (both iPad and Android). I find that some device with characteristics similar to a tablet (its minimalistic design and portability) and a desktop PC (upgradability, cooling and power) seems to be my sweet spot for portable work, gaming and upgradability. If I want to do portable work, I can remote to my home desktop PC and utilize its resources, or even log in to my work PC if I need to. If I wanted to game, simply play on the desktop since I can always upgrade GPU/CPU/RAM/Storage if I need to. And if remoting isn't an option - depending on what I need to do, I can simply use the OS and use whatever local software I have installed to do simple work. After experimenting with a cheap $100 laptop, I noticed my only gripe was limited screen variations at that price point, while tablets have more flexibility on screen resolutions and size - getting a good tablet with a decent display can cost a lot. I was thinking of using a raspberry Pi 5 8gb to run Arch and connect it to a big big battery pack so that it can be powered to it and a portable monitor. Plus, I can use my own mini keyboard and mouse without having to be limited in ergonomics with the design of a laptop. If this plan would work reasonably, I would then just create some housing that would keep the monitor and pi together in a pleasing asethetic. So then it looks like a surface pro tablet without a keyboard case sleeve and I can bring whatever input devices I need.

I like my 2018 paper white

For myself....the warm light is worth the extra money. I LOVE they way that looks.

Very helpful video! I’ve been wanting to upgrade my ef lenses and rf makes it so hard because I want them all lol As a hobbyist and mom who loves to take photos I think the 24-70 is going to be perfect, as well as the 70-200 2.8 and now I need to decide on either the 50 1.2 or 85 1.2 ☺️

Holy shit!! Thank you so much for this video. You are probably the only one to make this video. What a god send

Just want the dang warm light and don't wanna pay the extra just for that :(

Nice tip to MC. Appreciate your vibe even more. All glory to God.

When I bought the 24-105 I was surprised at how little difference there was between 70mm and 105mm. Then I opened the aperture to f4 and it was a very bad feeling that it couldn't be opened more ;). I realised that I couldn't live with it. The next day I replaced the lens with a 24-70.

I wonder if his review would change if they both had cases on them.

28-70f2 FTW! Honesly, they are all good, but I'm really loving the 28-70 despite its massive weight and cost.

seriously, im not that educated on general tripod prices but for a beginner a $330 triod is nuts

For me the warm backlight feature is very important. I read mostly in bed 60-30 min before sleep as I want to tire my brain out so I can softly go to sleep. I wont have any lamps on so its pitch dark with kindles backligt. And the warmlight is amazing. try it out. Pitch dark in bed, you are doing your best to not have too much light so you can sleep better. So adjust kindle backligt on to around level 2-4. AND the warmligt adjust it to level 22-23. You get a very soft light that feels amazing to read in the dark. Now try same with the basic. It looks horrible without the soft warmlight! The cold light is just too harsh even if you have it on lowest level in pitch dark. An other issue with the basic is it has only 4 backlights when Paperwhite has 17 backlights. Basic ones screen is very unevenly lit. So no I would say its very worth it to go with the Paperwhite. Only downside is they don't sell it in 8gb anymore and the price is up compared with the first Paperwhite 11gn from like year 2022

I purchased my first Kindle in my life and I choose base model

Great video! I have a Kindle Scribe for home and a basic Lil Kindle for my purse! I love to bring it with me every where!!! 😊🎉

Nutella lens?🤣

I have a kindle that's over a decade old at this point and I can't honestly see a reason to upgrade they all do the exact same thing its not like you need some crazy technology or massive storage to read some books. Also having adverts on a product you bought is horrific and dystopian.

I have a 9 year old paperwhite that I'm considering upgrading. The basic Kindle looks a lot more like what I'm used to.

Good review. My Kindle Basic arrives today. Got it mainly for the small size and long battery life. I also have a Fire 7 and iPad to borrow library books.

im just hoping they dont stop support for them because im seriously thinking about getting one

Hi there! one small correction; the distance is not measured from the rear element but from the film/sensorplane, it has a symbol on the camerabody that has a horizontal line through a circle, the distance is measured from the line. This lens also carrries a secret; if you pull out/push in the focussing ring you can make focussing stiffer in case the camera is pointing down on a tripod.

Hate the camera on my 15 pro max, the pics are so dark you can’t even see the colors of scenery etc.

This was really helpful, thank you.

50 dollars, in Brazil this is 450 reals

Intriguing topic for a video! I guess growing up the daughter of an AV engineer (and now following in his footsteps), I have never liked earbuds nearly as much as full-on, over-ear headphones. But I'm still curious enough to watch this. 🙃 I personally use noise cancelling Sony headphones that are both Bluetooth and wired. (The cable can be plugged in or removed.) Just a random note - Whenever my contractors test our setup for an event, they tend to use songs by Led Zeppelin and Boston and then some random pop songs.

I just ordered mine

Team Kindle Basic here!!!

R5 + 70-200mm f/2.8 and 28-70mm f/2... All i need!

Really happy I stumbled upon this vid. This looks to be the same shape as a GoodWerks Boogie bag which is near impossible to get. Nice review!

It's a bit long, but worth it. Witness by Whittaker Chambers.

I think I land where you did. The simplicity, weight, and recessed screen that's that little bit extra sharp. I too prefer to just have a reading light.

No, you don't need these lenses. EF 70-200 IS II/III can now be found at a very good price and it is a more honest instrument, without the crazy vignetting of a wide-angle lens and with a one-piece design without trunk (hey, we used to overpay for this, it was a feature and not a bug for almost 30 years) 50 1.2 is simply a waste of money. This is nothing more than a way to encourage Canon megalomania. EF Sigma Art will do a great job, and can be found for a third of the cost. There is also tokina - even better. You don't need record sharpness along the edge if there is 2v vignetting on that edge. This is not a tool, this was their way of showing off with the new system in 2018. The proposed wide-angles are kinda ok, but not the best value. EF 16-35 4 IS - very balanced lens from the golden era, can be found at a great price. Again, modern lenses are designed to be amazing at sharpness charts along (very dark) edges at an open aperture - absolutely no one needs this in their work. What is this video all about? To recommend the most obvious and expensive lenses that Canon itself recommends and wants to sell? What's the use of this video? If it doesn't exist, people won't get lost like "uw, we can’t figure out if 50 1.2 is worth it”? These are not some hidden gems or anything. This is what Canon is rushing to the market with and what they want to make money on.

Love the detailed review of how you use it, Steven! Thank you so much for this 😍

Thank You CANON 14-34 f4

This is awesome! Can't wait to get mine 🥳

Thx man, it really help me right now, bc insta isnt for me...i dont like it ( for posting photos). wish u luck and better day
