Reviews
"Overall, my husband and I liked this product."
"Due to me being worried about the saltwater affecting it, I would soak it in the sink after we would get back to our room."
"Solid GoPro stick."
"Its good quality and sturdy but it doesn't have a remote button connection so you can't use it unless you put on a timer."
"Great little stick, a bit pricey but well made, I ordered it for a friend I wish I had ordered this unit for myself."
"I wouldn't use this for everyday travel/GoPro use and the screw stops are quite time consuming."
"The security system is not good, is very easy to loose the screw because is separated from the stick."

Reviews
"The pole will fill with water once it's submerged, but the water quickly is purged out of the opening where the wrist tether is mounted on the bottom of the hand grip when the pole is completely retracted to it's shortest height. This enables you to unscrew the top aluminum camera mount after your finished SCUBA diving and flush the inside of the pole with freshwater to get ride of any saltwater."
"Afterwards I quickly and easily disassemble to clean, dry out and apply a light oil (salt water dives) and the pole seems built for the long haul even with this usage."
"Great product overall but I can't seem to get the camera mount to tighten all the way, so the camera is a bit loose..."
"I emailed SANDMARC and explained the situation, and that I was hopeful I could get my pole fixed before my trip."
"Don't take on carry on in airplane( when I travel I travel light with no check in bags), I had trouble and the stewardess kept it in the front with them the whole flight but returned it when we landed."
"I have used this in the water and have not had any issues with water getting in."
"It's too heavy and will sink a GoPro even with a floaty backdoor, speaking from experience :(."
"The all metal end cap is fantastic compared to the plastic."

"works great with the gopro... my only problem is with the clip adapter on the top, it isn't a perfect fit for the clip so the gopro kinda shifts around a little."

"Great light for diving!"

Reviews
"The other one is a small EDC flashlight, from Orcatorch and I love it, so I already knew I could expect a quality product. The D520 has all the marks of a quality flashlight: -The finish is very good, no uneven, crude surfaces, cheap materials, etc. In general I notice that the attention to small details (like including some spare o-rings) is something that often is absent with really cheap flashlights. It doesn’t have a switch (which is something that could always potentially break) and instead relies on twisting the head of the flashlight to turn it on and off. A lot of people don’t realize that rubber needs oil or lubricants just as much as leather and other products. You can still use it as a normal flashlight for a short amount of time as long as you hold it in your hand. If you need to drain the battery so that you can fully charge it, just turn the flashlight on and put in a basin full of water like I did. One thing to keep in mind though is that the human eye perceives warm lights as less bright than cold lights, so with the same lumen output a cold LED will seem brighter than a warm LED."
"Battery life in 63 degree water was adequate for short use during a 5 dive day without charging."
"This is a really good bright light, perfect for night dives."
"This is very well made."
"Got it for my brother!"
"I wasn't expecting too much as I've had some issues with other lights, but this one is awesome.It's bright, lasts a long time between charges and comes with 2 batteries."
"Battery life is great, great brightness, great price."
"I've only used the light once , but it worked good and was bright enough to see good in water with only about 30 ft visibility."

Diva Ring Light Super Nova 18" Dimmable Ring Light
The DivaRingLight DRL-2 Dimmable 18" ring light is a lightweight, portable beauty light that renders soft shadow-less light. Dimmable feature allows for softer light options (dims to 20% of full power).
Reviews
"This light ring is part of setting up a studio that stays set up so that it's fast and easy to have good lighting. - Diffuser cloth: This helps a lot - not just for the results on camera, but also for your eyeballs because you can look at the camera without feeling Blinded By The Light (."
"I wish that the stand (the part that can sit your camera in the center of the light) would work for cameras like my Sony, but since I don't have a DSLR camera yet I just have to use two tripods to accomplish filming. I do have a problem being able to screw my light together to the tripod correctly now, but other than that it works out fine."
"It's a bit of work having to screw and unscrew the camera mount, but this is a huge delicate piece of glass so its worth the effort. This does bring me to the one fault I see with this product: the tiny screws that connect the camera mount to the light. It is so easy to strip the head, and I can't imagine how these two little screws are going to hold this product safe in the long term."
"Just make sure to remove the foam around the bulb as this can cause issues!"
"As a makeup artist, I can't imagine how I even made it in the industry without it!"
"I bought it for my YouTube channel and was comparing this between the Neewer ring light."
"The lighting is bright and all good in that hood- But, they only give you one way to mount the light ring, and that is via 2 small specialty screws that are not even long enough if you wanted to incorporate the s***ty camera mount that they include."
"I've been using this for simple portrait photography and it's made my life so much easier."

"I have a much larger external battery, which works when I might have a long time in between outlets, like international traveling. The flashlight is pretty good, and I wouldn't feel so stressed about using it for an extended period of time."
"My RAV had been fully charged a couple of weeks ago so I grabbed it and plugged in the Fire Phone. The RAV was now showing red when power level was checked (by pressing the button once) but the flashlight still worked like a champ even after pumping all that juice into my phone."
"My kids like to use their phones more than they like charging them, so they end up with dead batteries when they are leaving the house to go to a friends or somewhere else that I want to be able to get a hold of them."
"I originally had stated that the button to turn on the flash light is easy to activate and with the device roaming in my purse, the button could easy get pushed and run down the battery."
"The charger comes with a micro USB cable to charge it and it charges from empty to full power in 4 hours maximum."
"I will be charging RAVPower from Sinewave and then charge iPhone, etc from RAVPower."
"and when on, a light informs you if it needs charging (usb turns red) and if its charged (usb turns green), and I'm still learning what other colors mean."

Reviews
"So, in short: Pros: - Works well as described. - I even tried S1, S2 modes which also works well (In S2 mode you can use the wireless trigger to trigger the shutter of the camera & the camera’s flash will trigger the AP-N1001’s flasher). - Great wireless trigger when connected to the camera. - Good battery life. - Comes with the batteries for the wireless trigger set (but doesn’t incl. I’m very happy with the wireless trigger too, cos I can use it to trigger the camera (especially when I set the AP-N1001 flasher to S2 mode (slave) so it’ll go off as soon as it detects the camera’s (Nikon D7100 in my case) flash goes on. I have a very cheap wireless IR trigger I bought for the D7100 but it’s not very reliable, sometimes it’ll shoot as soon as I press it, but sometimes I need to press multiple times. But this wireless trigger (when connected to the camera) triggers as soon as I press it."
"The included User Manual wasn't the easiest to figure out in terms of tweaking for perfect photos - at least not for a newbie, but the controls of On/Off are simple enough and it wasn't tough to quickly figure out the settings even without the manual. The ability to soften the flash with a plastic diffuser (included) and by user settings, was great. NOTE: Photos included with this review are without any flash, with diffused flash and with the flash and no diffusion (the brightest with a setting of +2 on the flash)."
"It's very simple and easy to use and unlike more expensive flash kits, it recycles quickly."
"Most of my shots are of athletes and parades and needed a good reliable flash for your Nikon 5100 and have been VERY happy with the results."
"Dedicated flash replacement D3300 in automatic mode, mostly set to bounce / reflect at 45 degree for indoor pictures and I found the results much better than the camera’s built in flash. Also tested remote trigger, wiring the receiver to the camera port and letting it hang on the side while using the flash on the hot shoe."

"The bulbs have their own night case and Styrofoam to keep them safe and the stands and umbrellas also have their own bag."
"I did also buy a separate light that attaches to the top of the camera as well, to help further light up my face specifically, but that is just a personal preference...certainly not a necessity! Excuse my pajamas, messy hair, and complete lack of makeup (I didn't realize I'd want to share these with anybody!"

"For the price and for someone trying to start out small in building a studio these things are amazing!"
"These photos were shot with the light kit set up (key light, fill light, hair/highlight light) and an overhead light on in the room. It was near a window, however the day I shot these photos it was dark and gray and pouring down buckets of rain, so natural light wasn't really a factor at all for these shots."
"My thoughts: - Items arrived beautifully packaged with care. - Everything seems to be of high quality. - You get a carrying case (bag) and two plastic sleeves for the umbrellas. - The light bulbs are very bright and very white. - Absolutely perfect for someone that does YouTube videos. - For $40 this is an absolute steal!"
"I am brand new to photography lighting like this, but the instructions were very easy to follow and the design is intuitive."

Reviews
"This light is so bright, I've even used it as a fill light in various lighting situations. So, if you are relying on this light because of the tungsten filter, you may want to reconsider or make your own filter. All in all, this light still gets 5 stars."
"Pretty great."
"(I'm not saying this is an amazing lighting setup, but, just wanted to show how they can work in a professional environment - they are so quick and simple.). The 3rd and 4th stills highlight a cool effect that I just recently started doing, which is pointing these lights right into the camera just off frame to give flares when you're just shooting fairly static and inactive B-roll. I have about six of the F550s, which, are good for about an hour, but, if you're doing any sort of serious shooting and you're trying to move quickly, and then you have to hold up the interview because you need to change out a batt on your lights, that's pretty bad."
"Somewhat harsh light, I suppose if you're at a wedding and are using this for video and the quality of light isn't an issue, you're in a wonderfully lit dining hall with disco balls all over, this would be a HUGE plus to have on your unit, the battery life, well the draw on the battery is quite supreme because the batteries which are a standard type (they fit on many different products so are voluminous here on Amazon from many sellers = lower prices); I ran a test and the light lasted approx 75 minutes with the smaller 2600mah battery, you can use a much larger 6900mah battery which I have yet to test out, but if the 1/3 size battery lasts a full hour+, that's good enough for me with having a few backups fully charged and ready to go in your bag."
"Must buy a soft box addition to use with faces, but very bright and batteries last fairly long with this."

"I love they you are able to control all of the lights from just one of them."
"I recently was in need of some studio lights for my video production."
"I had an indoor shot that had really bad color cast from a nearby window. No cords or external power lets you make less impact on a site that's busy with lots of foot traffic. Lights will last pretty mush all day with the larger batteries."
"The fact that they synch with one another is a plus; you can adjust one light's brightness and color temp and other lights in the setup will adjust automatically to the same settings."
