Its a chromecast. Just, newer, better.
Works like a chromecast.
The built-in HDMI cable is great.
Often get great deals through chromecast app for free movies etc.
Anyone who hates on the "lack of functionality" doesn't know what they bought. This allows you to stream from your phone or chrome browser... and does a great job of that - period.

This is an amazing card. It goes on sale often, and worth every dollar.
One thing to note, is many cards have a fast read speed, but slower write speed. If you are doing video, you may need higher write speed. This one has both!

Likely, if you are looking to get this camera, you already know how good it is.
In comparison, I found that the kit with the 24-120mm f4, and current prices made this unit a better option than the D610 for a "getting into full frame with a new camera" criteria.
Even for professional work, I would be hard pressed to justify the 810.

I am currently using it as a speakerphone in the office. Worlds better than the speaker on my phone, and surprisingly goo/loud for music as well.
I'm gonna enjoy using this in the garage when working.

As pretty much anyone will tell you - this is a fantastic, cheap, fun lens to own.
Once you start to get used to your camera, and want an upgrade to a better lens - this is a great one to pick up.

I have one of these SSd's in a small server that runs 24/7. I have had it going 24/7 for almost a year with zero issues. So, I just purchased another for a second server.

I got this TV on sale. For that sale price it was worth it, and is a decent enough 40" 1080p TV. I am very picky and usually use high-quality items (My Computer monitor cost twice as much as this TV for example). And despite that, I still think it was a good buy. and would do it again if needed.
You do get what you pay for, and spending an extra 100-200 on top of the normal price will definitely get you a much better TV. But when on sale, this guy is great!

Nikon - AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G OR Nikon - AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G?

which lens to pick for use with Nikon D3000 and D7200
Nikon - AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G OR Nikon - AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G?
Because those are "Crop Sensors". the 35mm will end up with a ~50mm View, and the 50mm will end up being ~75mm view.

So, choose based on that. Either are fine for that camera, all depends on what you want.

Wifi

Does Nikon DSLR only make wifi cameras that are equipped to go to smart phone I pone or tablet? Or can you send the pictures directly from the camera to social media such as twittier of facebook with out sending them first to a smart phone or tablet?
You must send to a phone first.

Some Mirror-less cameras may have more functionality - but even those do not have direct capabilities.

How long to fully charge the battery?
Is NFC supported?
Is it water/dust resistant?
It says on the packaging 6 hours of life.
NFC is not supported
It is NOT dust or water resistant.

I am not sure on the other items. I have not charged the unit since buying it, I use it plugged in on a desk.

How to hook up with Dish?

I have an older box t.v now that is equipped with older style RCA (red. yellow, white) combination cables, How do I hook Dish up to the new flat screen if purchased?

Thanks
This TV has the RCA plugs (yellow, red, white). So, you can plug into your dish box with no issues.

I would recommend upgrading dish box, though, as running low-quality non-HD signal into a new HD TV, the quality is noticeably worse.
