I have lost two camera to weather. One simply because the humidity killed it. One simply because of a little dust in the air. This had till now severely limited my pursuit of photography outdoors. This camera is a little miracle! It's weatherization allows one to use it in most outdoor situations without having to take great pains to protect it from the weather, or other adverse conditions experienced outdoors. I don't need any contraptions to protect it - it simply hangs from my neck and is easy to operate. The camera body fits my hand easily, and provides easy access to all controls. The lens provided (which is also weatherized) is excellent for the broad range of situations I encounter outdoors. This camera truly is a little miracle for those who wish to expand their skills in outdoor photography. I have attached 4 sample photos - be aware that each had to be sized down to meet the size constraints of the website. One is a shot of a cardinal high up on a tree top. It was taken at max zoom, handheld. Another is of a pileated woodpecker that I was able to get closer to. It too was taken at max zoom, handheld. The dual stabilization does a fantastic job. Another shot is of the near total eclipse of the moon on 19 Nov 2021, at maximum extinction. It was taken at max zoom, handheld, at below freezing temperatures. Finally is a picture of a dramatic sunrise, taken at mid zoom, handheld.
This camera has opened up a whole new world of photography for me. I highly recommend it!

 Philips - Wireless Over-Ear Noise Canceling Headphones- Black - Black
Philips - Wireless Over-Ear Noise Canceling Headphones- Black - Black
The Philips PH805 headphones give you control over what you hear and what you don’t, no matter what the day brings you. Enjoy your favorite songs in Hi-Res Audio during your morning workout in wireless freedom. Switch to Google assistant to check your flight information with a touch, and then enjoy your flight in silence by activating noise canceling. And enjoy your videos in high quality sound once you get to the hotel. One set of headphones can now cover all of your needs. With the PH805, you control what you hear and what you don’t hear. A tap to the ear-cup will activate noise cancelation, so you can be enveloped in a shroud of silence when you need to concentrate or rest. If you want to turn the volume down on the world but still hear louder sounds like someone speaking to you, simply activate Awareness Mode with another tap. The PH805 comes with Google Assistant, which allows you to manage your life on the move, without taking out your phone. Just touch the headband to activate it. Open your calendar, read notifications from your phone, call or send messages to friends, or check the weather simply by asking Google Assistant. The PH805 is also a quality headphone set that delivers detailed, high resolution sound, which you can use as your go-to headphones for home or on the go entertainment. Hi-Res Audio means that they are capable of playing back lossless audio at a higher sample rate than most headphones and CDs when connected to a high-res source. The benefits of the PH805 last for a full 30 hours, making them an ideal solution for every situation you find yourself in throughout the day (and night). You get up to 30 hours of play time (or talk time) with noise canceling off, or 25 hours of use with it on. If you need an extra 2 to 6 hours of battery life, 5 to 15 minutes of charging will be enough. The Philips PH805 has you covered. And when you are finally through using the Philips PH805s, they fold right up into a compact travel case, making them convenient to take with you wherever you go.

This is a set of noise-cancelling, wireless headphones that has the most important qualities of its much more expensive competition. But it does miss some of the features of those headsets. Its pros are: it has good quality sound; it has good battery life; it has good bluetooth range; it connects to sources well; it is comfortable; it has a nice case. Its one most obvious fault is that it comes with only one EQ setting. That setting provides pretty flat response across the spectrum -- it works well for vocals, instrumental, classical, pop, operetta, opera. I find it also works well with tv programs - if there is any lag it is imperceptible to me. If you are looking for a set of wireless headphones that are of good quality, but can't justify paying a high price, these are a good choice.

Get a workout while sitting down with the Cubii Jr. Seated Elliptical. This compact elliptical machine has an ergonomic design to reduce joint stress and an assortment of tools to help customize a workout based on individual health and fitness needs, including eight resistance levels to help adjust intensity to appropriate and challenging levels for each user. This machine, which is made to work quietly, does require some light assembly (it comes with a tool to attach the pedals).

This Cubii is excellent for getting some exercise regularly during the very cold and icy winters of Minnesota. It is a quality product that will last a very long time. It is whisper quiet, and does not dominate a room - making it great in a modestly sized apartment. I recommend it highly.

This headset has very good audio! I have tested it on my Xbox One X console, my S7 Edge cell phone, and on my desktop computer. It has good audio with the mic, but the mic needs to be positioned close to your mouth. It is a very comfortable headset! It is a solidly made headset, and looks sharp but not garish. I recommend it highly!

These are excellent speakers for my vintage stereo system. My 45 year old Kenwood KR-2400 receiver/amplifier is rated at just 17W/channel, but is well matched to these new speakers and sounds great. It provides plenty of volume for my modestly sized apartment living room with these speakers. I got a pair of Rockville stands to put some distance above the floor, and provide some acoustic isolation (important in an apartment complex).

I was very fortunate to be able to get this multi-disc CD player -- good ones are very hard to find these days at a reasonable price. I obtained this as an "open box" item, advertised as in "Excellent" condition. It was as advertised - it appeared someone had opened the box, and peeled away some of the soft wrapping, but otherwise appeared brand new, and never used. All the accessories were still sealed in their bags, and the manual also sealed in its bag. The player is excellent! I ran it through its paces. Everything worked well, and it sounded great! It is a large device -- 17in X 17in X 5in, and heavy. I suspect the previous purchaser did not realize just how big this is. I sit it on the top of my stereo cabinet, with the turntable on top of it. I recommend this player most highly!

This camera has all the features I have wanted for some time, and is within my budget. It is a premium travel camera that has a 1-inch sensor with 20-Million pixels, a very good Leica lens with a 10X optical zoom, and very good optical image stabilization. It comes equipped with a 3-inch touch-screen that allows a host of controls directly. It has very good automatic image control, that makes the camera very easy to use. It also allows one a host of means for manual control, and facilitates this with a control ring on the barrel of the lens and a dial on the top of the camera - and each of these can be user selected for different exposure controls. The camera is small and compact - easily placed in a jacket pocket. It is unintrusive - important for candid shots. I carry it with me on my daily walks, something I would not do with my larger cameras.
The attached photos of a deer family and of a cardinal were each taken at 10X optical zoom, with automatic image control. The camera was handheld, and indicate the quality of the optical image stabilization. The sun rise photo was taken at maximum wide angle, again with automatic image control.
Some accessories I would suggest include:
- SanDisk - Extreme PRO 128 GB SDXC Memory Card
- Case Logic - Era Camera Pouch
- Spare battery (DMW-BLG10PP)
- "Photographer's Guide to the Panasonic ZS100/TZ100" by
Alexander S. White
I highly recommend this camera to all!

Keep the action going with the Xbox One Play & Charge Kit. Recharge while you play or afterwards, even when your Xbox is in standby. The long-lasting rechargeable battery fully charges in under 4 hours. Say goodbye to disposable batteries and having to swap them out in the middle of a game.

I bought this as "Open box - Excellent" because it was unavailable new. It looked new to me! The only evidence it had been opened was the broken seal on the box. The contents looked like they had never been removed from the box. It has worked out very well for me. It takes about 4 hours to fully charge the battery, but once done I can use it about 2 hours a day for about two weeks. I purchased a 6 foot USB 3.0 extension cable so I could play while charging (I sit about 12 feet from the console) - and it works just fine!

How big is the power supply in this unit? Can I add a Nvidia 1050 GPU without upgrading the Factory power supply?

The unit has an internal 180 Watt power supply. I believe you would have to replace it with a higher power supply to run such a card. I did a little research on upgrading the power supply for this machine. It is not so easy. I would recommend sticking with the built in graphics. The machine was not designed for higher end gaming.
