Continuation of Star Trek Series
on December 2, 2016
Posted by: sglmom
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is another Star Trek Movies, and a continuation of the series.
As it goes, I've listened to ones which I consider better, but that's not the point here ..
IF you remember Star Trek from the 1st time seen (yes, original series) .. you realize quickly that sometimes, CGI is not as good as having imagination and just good acting.

This works!

Well .. since the spine fusion, I needed a backup camera to help me out when parking and also in backing up to the trailers I use (rural home life). As a result, since my SUV didn't have this from the factory, an aftermarket was desired, and this fit the bill.
I will say this .. I went to a local windshield repairer to have the mount for the Rear View Mirror moved downwards (my SUV (like others) has that extra space to hold eyeglasses securely and this does mean that the existing mount wasn't able to hold the new one comfortably and be usable) .. so that windshield place was able to remove the glued on mount and move it downwards enough to make this replacement rear view mirror (With the viewscreen on it) down enough so I could comfortably use the mirror as intended (for night and day driving).
I will state this .. there is no problem viewing the backup camera in either night or daytime at all while backing up (it does work!).
I've also got to say the Best Buy installer did a great job tucking everything into the panels so that all the wires were hidden as meant to be.

Spare USB cable for SUV/Truck

Let's face it, when driving and using GPS .. power goes fast and it always helps to have a separate USB Cable to use in one's USB Port in your vehicle to charge your phablet/phone.

Think big with this Samsung Galaxy Note7. The massive 5.7-inch screen gently curves around the edges of the phone, so it has plenty of space for you to work and play, and the S Pen lets you quickly use it without smudges. Iris-based security and 4GB of RAM make this water-resistant Samsung Galaxy Note7 a valuable professional tool.

sadly .. this is now history
on October 21, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
Quite frankly .. I didn't have the problems that got this phablet the attention of the CPSC and the TSA ..
(it never overheated on chargers, didn't overheat in the cases, no overheating while charging in the SUV/Truck .. and definitely did not overheat while used)
What was excellent .. the s-Pen, the LARGE size, the ability to adapt to disabled needs and the excellent (Fast) ability to change between apps and the originally on the device apps (including Windows Office software)
Along with the water resistance and the expansion slot for a MicroSD Card (which I do like considering I have business, hobby and personal data on separate MicroSD Cards that I do swap in and out during the use times) ..
This is what made this phablet a joy for me to use.
I now have a Galaxy S7Edge .. it's too small, NO s-Pen or stylus, it DOES in fact overheat while on chargers and in cases, is not as adaptable to my Disabilities, and is just a clumsy device (Due to the tiny size of the touchpad keys (which when you have arthritis makes it impossible for any sort of accuracy) ..
This has left me with a phablet/phone that is not good for much at all ...
(and it does hang up .. is slow to transition between files, isn't as responsive when using voice commands ..)

I'm very UPSET at the fact that to Travel I HAD to turn in my Note 7 for a phone that is not that useful overall .. and now am stuck (Because, let's face it .. we can't purchase up front anymore on any carrier). Hopefully a new Note Phablet will be seen in the future (near term).

Works well with my HP Envy x360

Needed something since the computer didn't come with a dvd or BD drive .. so this was small, compact, and easy to fit in a pocket with the laptop 2-in-1 device to travel with ..
Used to view some movies I purchased on down time while traveling .. as well as uploading older software that still has physical discs ..

Excellent for nature photography
on October 7, 2016
Posted by: sglmom
Verified Purchase:Yes
First off .. this is a HEAVY LENS (you do need a tripod to help you out)
and yes, that case it comes with (and the shoulder straps for the lens itself) is very HANDY INDEED (it stabilizes me and prevents it from falling when I put it on the camera body)
but I do enjoy nature photography and nowadays being older, I have a rolling small airline case that I use to hold tripod, lenses and camera body
So this one does indeed provide a great choice when photographing birds in wild (I wouldn't have gotten my eagle shots without it!)

Being older, and having injuries, I keep walking each day so that I can continue to enjoy life as best I can (I have prior injuries)
so this device did help me confirm that I am definitely walking between 2-3 miles daily (which is a good thing!)
The only complaint I have is that it doesn't quite record the staircases that I am climbing up and down, but I do think that the medical devices implanted are potentially interfering with the ability of the device to read my exercise/efforts.

Always protect your lens purchase
on September 2, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
one practice I started long ago with my first film DSLR and its lenses was to also buy with the lens a starter UV Filter (along with lens cap keepers and a case for it too).
This was the choice at best buy and I have no complaints so far.

It's equipped with an image stabilizer, so you can create sharp photos and video while using slower shutter speeds. And when you're not shooting, the zoom lock button lets you keep the lens securely fixed in place.

Never had a problem with Canon lenses
on September 2, 2016
Posted by: sglmom
Verified Purchase:Yes
Had an older 70-300 that I've had almost as long as my film camera, so that lens was able to migrate to the DSLR and I've used it for some extra years.
Now that one is needing a bit of repair/tightening, I decided to purchase a dedicated digital in this zoom range and yes, it is quite easy to use (even for someone my age (elder) and having arthritis)
