Great Video editing software
on April 22, 2016
Posted by: Dartagnan007
from Knoxville, TN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I am just getting into video editing and wanted some software to help with post processing. The industry standard is of course Adobe but it requires a subscription and a step learning curve. I read good reviews about this and watched some videos online. So far the learning curve is not to bad and I am having fun using the software. There is a newer version out so I got a really good deal on this software. Also the Ultimate is worth it for the extra filters and software you get.

I love these things. I bought 2 sizes and use them both at home and work. They are great for keeping cables where you can reach them and keep them from falling down behind your desk. I am giving them 4 stars due to the cost. Wait and grab them on Sale if you can.

Acer 27" S271HL DBID LED HD Monitor: The thin design lets you place this large monitor almost anywhere — even hang it on the wall (wall mount sold separately). Great for playing video games, showing movies, viewing documents side by side, and enlarging photos during the editing process.

Not as good as other monitors offered.

I bought 2 of these to update my computer at home for Photo and Video editing as they wer eon sale. The color recreation on these is terrible. No matter what I did I could not get a natural color with these monitors. I had this problem with both monitors. I traded these in on the ASUS monitors which I highly recommend. Spend a little bit more and get something else.

Great Cover and genuine Apple Product

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this cover to go with my Belkin Keyboard. When I am not using the Keyboard and can detach it from the case on the iPad and attach this and have a totally covered iPad that is then and light. I love this cover and how easy it is to prop up the iPad when using on a desk or in your lap to watch movies. What else can I say except that it is a great Apple product but has the Apple cost which is why I am only giving it 4 stars.

Great kit for Cleaning Lenses at a great price

Posted by: Dartagnan007
from Knoxville, TN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for something to keep the lens clean on my Phantom 3 Pro as I have various lenses for it and it is hard to change them without sometimes getting finger prints or dust on them. This kit was just the thing. Best Buy carries 3 different kits. They have one for GoPro and one for DSLR and this one. With the GoPro one you are paying for the name GoPro which I do not recommend. The DSLR kit is just a basic kit and a good price. THis kit is the combination of both the GoPro kit and the DSLR kit at a great price. I highly recommend this kit and I use it for my GoPro, Phantom 3, and DSLR.

Great little item I did not know I needed

This is a great little item that I happened to notice at Best Buy one day when I was browsing. I decided to buy 2 different sizes and I must say they are the best gadget I have found that I did not know I needed. It keeps my cables where I can reach them when they are not plugged in. I use them at Home and work. The only reason I am given them 4 stars is due to the cost. I would wait until they go on sale or you have some rewards built up that you need to use. I highly recommend them otherwise.

Excellent Micro SD Card
on April 22, 2016

from Knoxville, TN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this Micro SD Card to use in my Phantom 3 Professional which records in 4K and takes Raw images. I wanted a card that was fast and at a good price. This card was the ticket. I have used other more common brand Micro SD cards and this one performs just as good if not better than some most of them. This is a great card for any camera as I will also be using it in my DSLR. I highly recommend PNY memory and just keep an eye on Best Buy as they put it on sale quite often.

Excellent Monitors
on April 14, 2016
Posted by: Dartagnan007
from Knoxville, TN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I just decided to upgrade my aging monitor and decided to go with a dual monitor setup as I use one at work and love it. I first purchased the Acer 27" monitor from Best buy as they were on sale. They did not reproduce color very well and they both looked different when showing the same image side by side. At that moment I decided to return them. After doing some research and reading reviews here and else where I decided on these ASUS monitors. My computer has an ASUS motherboard and I recently purchased an ASUS video card so I thought it would be a good match. I was not disappointed. These are great monitors. I recommend downloading the color correction files from ASUS. They are under the other section in the downloads I believe. I can not remember exactly as I read it under another review somewhere. Remember these are IPS monitors so they produce very nice color. The only thing that I saw is they are 1080p monitors which is a lower resolution than my previous monitor which was built for gaming. It is a small difference and not worth loosing a star as I went from a 24" monitor to 2 27" monitors so I have a lot more real estate. I highly recommend these monitors.

Better than a Scuf
on January 8, 2016
Posted by: Dartagnan007
from Knoxville, TN
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had a Scuf controller for about a year and half that I love. I liked the look and custom-ability of the Elite so I gave it a try. I have to say the layout of the levers on the back is much better than the Scuf and the Elite controller was half the cost . If you are not playing with a controller with paddles on the back you are playing at a disadvantage. They take a little while to get use to but they are worth it. Buy one and give it a try.

Get everything you need to monitor your home and keep your family protected with this Samsung SmartThings ADT Home Security Starter Kit. Including the ADT Security Hub, this kit connects to your enabled device for effortless monitoring and alerts. Window and door detectors, along with a motion detector, give this Samsung SmartThings ADT Home Security Starter Kit all-encompassing function. Your home security system needs a brain, so get started with an ADT Security Hub. It features a 7-inch touchscreen control panel, a built-in siren, battery and cellular data backup, and dual- encryption wireless technology. Connected devices and services sold separately. Requires an ADT Security Hub, plus one or more compatible ADT devices. ADT professional monitoring services may not be available in all areas and may require permitting or additional service fees.
 

Are there any glass break sensors that are compatible with this system and will trigger ADT? I am very interested in this system, but lack of that capability is a deal breaker for me. Thank you!

No there are currently no glass break sensors. It is a great system and I hope they add glass break sensors in the future but I added an entry exit sensor to every door and window for now.

Help protect your home and family with an ADT Motion Detector. Initiate optional ADT professional monitoring services when an intrusion is detected in your home. Receive alerts if there’s unexpected movement. Set lights and other connected devices to turn on and off as people come and go.Requires an ADT Security Hub, plus one or more compatible ADT devices. ADT professional monitoring services may not be available in all areas and may require permitting or additional service fees.
 

I have a 15 to 20 year-old ADT System made by GE. Can I add this motion detector to that controller? My controller somehow now has my motion detectors set to fire without delay? Is this mandatory? While OK in some areas, it's not in all.

Sorry these only work with the new SmartThings ADT Touchscreen hub. Hope this helps.

will these work on the old smartThings hub? Or are the old hubs obsolete now ? Hate to buy New system...

Sorry but this will not work with the old hub. It uses a new encripted radio that is only in the new Smartthings ADT Touchscreen hub. WIth the new ADT hub the only these are the only devices that can be monitored by ADT. I hope this helps.
