Google “best camera strap” and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a list that doesn’t include Slide Lite. A slimmed down version of our famous Slide strap, Slide Lite is the most versatile pro camera strap in the world. Unpadded and slimmer than Slide, Slide Lite offers an ideal combo of comfort and packability—most use it for mirrorless cameras, but many find it equally comfy and low-profile on full-frame cameras with large lenses. Slide Lite is versatile: wear it as a sling, neck, or shoulder strap. On one side, the webbing is smooth and glides over clothing. Flip it over, and a silicone grip prevents slippage off your shoulder. Dual quick-adjusters make Slide Lite configurable to any activity. When not shooting, cinch your camera tight to your body to keep it secure while moving about. The crux of it all? Our unique Anchor Link system. Anchors provide instant ultra-strong connection to your camera. Instantly swap Slide Lite between camera bodies, or switch to a different Peak Design strap. Multiple attachment points enable carrying your camera with your lens facing forward or down, making Slide Lite ideal for a huge range of camera/lens setups. Plus, Anchors work with Peak Design tripod plates and many 3rd party plates and L-brackets. Now available in 5 beautiful and timeless color-ways.
Good, but expected better

I expected something a bit better, but it's still decent. Being able to quickly remove or put the strap back on is clearly the key selling point of this, and it works well. What I don't like is the seatbelt material the strap is made from, while comfortable enough, is still essentially a seatbelt material, and doesn't flex very well (compared to say a traditional strap). This makes the strap feel bulky, especially when trying to store it or just collect it up in your hand to reduce slack. I also thought the little "levers" on the adjustment clips would lock it in place, but they do not, and really don't do anything at all. I also find that the strap may slip through the adjustment clips easily. But the ability to easily add/remove this strap is the big selling point and is why I keep using this on my camera.

If you love the classic JRPGs, this game will scratch that itch easily. I love how it looks like a HD interpretation of the 16-bit era of RPGs. But it doesn't limit itself to the 16-bit mechanics and really looks nice playing on the Switch screen or a large TV. I also love the music, which always has me turning the volume up one or two extra notches. Some may complain the story isn't very cohesive, which I suppose it can be at time as you jump from one characters story to another; but I think each individual characters story is interesting enough to keep the game moving. If you like JRPGs, you should get this game.

The Surface Book 2 is a great laptop with a great solid premium feel. It looks and feels modern, but not gaudy like laptops by HP or Dell sometimes can be. I think it captures that "feel-good" feeling that Apple has been able to capture so well with it's devices. But beyond look and feel, the rest of the laptop delivers the premium feel as well. The hardware is solid, with keyboard that feels great to type on, and nothing feels flimsy. Pop the screen off from the keyboard base, and you have a top-of-the-line tablet that feels light for its size, but still feels like it has substance.
Windows handles the attaching/detaching of the screen very well. Though the actual physical removing and reattaching the screen I've found to be a little awkward. The pegs on the keyboard that the screen attaches to are magnetic, so when trying to put the screen back on, the magnets are pulling together while you're trying to line the thing up. Then when detaching the magnets loosely hold the screen in place and I'm just afraid of pulling too hard.
My only other grips are minor. I was a little underwhelmed with the i5 performance. So much so I'm returning the i5 model and upgrading to the the i7 model. This may just be a matter of expectations. It still performs very well. I also wish the screen had maybe a USB port of some sort. That would add a little bit of versatility to it while using the screen as a tablet by itself (pro tip: the charger can be plugged into the tablet/screen where it connects to the dock, to charge the tablet/screen independent of the keyboard base).
Battery life is great. I was able to get 6 hours of use importing and editing photos in Lightroom. Farcry from the alleged 17 hours, which is probably measured on light web browsing and document editing, but I don't doubt you can easily get a full day on a single charge. It seems from 100% - 80% the laptop discharges both batteries. At 80% the tablet/screen battery stops discharging and it uses just the keyboard battery, until that's down to 50%, then it starts using both batteries again. I haven't noticed if there is another point at which it stops using the tablet battery. I imagine this discharging pattern is to maximize battery health, and also favoring the tablet battery so you have as much charge as possible if it's disconnected. I don't know if the way it discharges the batteries can be changed.

If you're into JRPGs, this is definitely a game worth looking into. Solid mechanics, and traditional JRPG elements, mixed with a unique art style that makes the game look like a Graphic Novel, and memorable unique music. My only complaint is that sometimes the game pacing feels a bit slow and some of dialog drags on a bit. There have been times where I already understand the plot elements, but the game insists on constantly repeating and explaining them over and over. Besides that, I love the uniqueness, without being different just to be different.

Experience legendary performance and sound of ASTRO Audio V2, with the convenience and freedom that comes without wires. The A50 Wireless + Base Station for PS5 /PS4 / PC delivers top-of-the-line acoustics, ergonomics, comfort and durability that gamers demand. The all-new Base Station provides clear, low-latency voice communication, while making headset pairing and charging simple. The ASTRO Command Center software allows gamers and streamers to tune every input and output parameter of the A50 precisely for their specific setup. Experience absolute audio immersion with the A50 Wireless + Base Station.
From past reviews on the A50s there was a charging station to headset connection issue. In this new A50 headset has that been fixed? Does the mic take out background noise up to how many DBs? Does the RF automatically select the best frequency?
I never had any connection issues. I don't know how many dB's of background noise this filters out, but it did pick up wind noise. The headset does not give any indication of what specific channel it's using or if/when it changes. It does operate in the 2.4Ghz spectrum, which can be pretty crowded (but 90% of wireless headsets are going to be 2.4Ghz; even bluetooth).

With the built-in memory card reader, any SD or CF card's files can be transferred to Mac or Windows computers. A remote shutter controller included in this Insignia camera accessory kit gives users the power to take a photo while also being part of it.
From the other questions I gather that the remote works with a nikon d3400. Can someone tell me how to sinc it. Thanks
It is IR (infrared), and doesn't need to be synced. You will need to put your camera in remote shutter mode though, and point the remote at the IR receiver on your camera. You should check the D3400 manual on how to change the shutter mode on your camera, and where the IR receivers are on your camera.
