This Samsung 5 Series HT-J5500/ZA Blu-ray home theater system includes 5 satellite speakers and a passive subwoofer. To build a complete 3D home theater system, you'll also need a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV and a high-speed HDMI cable.

Good system, small and easy to use

Verified Purchase:Yes
This seems to be a very good system. It was easy to set up and the size fits easy in the space I have. The sound isn't the most exceptional but it sound well enough to be good. It doesn't have every decoder in it but it has the major Dolby Digital and True HD sound. It is great for my bedroom but it might be lacking in features and power for a full blown home theater system. I like the fact when it's paired to my Samsung TV it has Audio Return Channel and plays the sound from my TV which is a great plus to the speakers in the TV. All in all it isn't bad but there is also better.

Works well, a little heavy

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have several Logitech devices and they have always functioned well. This keyboard is no exception. It works just as it should with my Samsung S4 and with my Tab A. It is so much easier if you want to type something that is longer than a two line text. You can use this and it feels much more natural than the tiny on screen keyboard of the phone or tablet. If you have a need for this type of use this keyboard seems to fill that need.

Good accessory for the Q500 4K

What can be said of the rotors for a Q500 4K. Well they are replacement rotors and that's good to have is you need them. In my case it came in a bundle so I'll have them when needed. The aircraft comes with two sets already so this is an extra set plus!

Excellent for the price point
on December 17, 2016
Posted by: Starfire116

Verified Purchase:Yes
This drone is of good quality and build. It is rather large which helps it stay stable throughout the flight envelope. The box contains everything you need to go out and fly (right after you charge all the batteries). It also has a hand help gimbal device that lets you take the camera off the aircraft and use it on the ground for other projects. The videos and photos that you get are of very good quality in all lighting conditions. The remote and the app (for the handheld) work very good and have adjustments for your needs on the video and photos. While the battery is new you would expect it to last pretty much to specifications and it seems to do just that. I've gotten about 28 minutes out of the longest flight in really calm air. I've gotten about 22 minutes out of it in a little more challenging air. I've tried a few flights at the upper limit of the wind maximum of 12MPH (mine 10MPH) it was a bit rocky and was having a little trouble maintaining position over the ground but that is to be expected. It did stay within 3-4 feet of the original takeoff position in those conditions which isn't bad. If you want something you don't have to use extras, like your cell phone, then this is a good deal.

Not going to win an Academy Awards but it was fun to watch. It is good entertainment with somewhat of a good story line. It is pure fantasy and it doesn't mimic the real world in any way...or does it!!

Very good instrument for phone and tablet

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've tried a few others with big tips and precision tips and find that this one is the best I've had. It is always responsive when I use it and accurate. It is very light which in my opinion is a slight drawback. It would feel better if it was just a bit heavier. Seems to be built well and very simply so there isn't really anything that will hinder it's use.

Good cap to replace old style
on November 14, 2016
Posted by: Starfire116
from Las Vegas, NV
Verified Purchase:Yes
This cap has the newer release tabs in the middle of the cap and my old one had them along the edge. It used to be very difficult to remove the cap with the lens hood attached. With this cap it is a breeze to remove without having to struggle or taking the hood off. The only thing that is not great is the tension of the mechanism. It's very light and it has fallen off on it's own a couple of times.

This card works very well so far. It isn't the highest form of technology but it is plenty fast enough and stable enough to be used int eh studio while taking photos with Canon 5D MkIII. It keeps up with the capture and writing to the card without a bottleneck.

The usual super hero flick

As movies go this is the next in a long line of Marvel's Cinematic Universe movies. As I always say take it for what it is, if you like this kind of comic book action sci-fi stuff you'll enjoy this and be entertained. As with many movies there are inconsistencies and poetic license running rampant.

Work with your files on the road via this My Cloud Home personal storage device. Mobile, desktop and web-based apps let you access to up to 4TB of files from anywhere there's an internet connection. This My Cloud Home personal storage device plugs directly into your Wi-Fi router for convenient centralized file storage and backups.
 

Does anyone know what kind of hard drive is in this? Is it two WD reds?

This model is a single 4TB drive and I can not find the exact drive they use in the box. The MyCloud Duo or EX2 does use the Red drives if you want Red and RAID you'll need the duo.

What size drives are in this device? are there two 4tb or 2 tb drives

This devise has several iterations. The 4TB MyCloud is one 4TB drive with no RAID capability. They have a dual drive models called MyCloud EX2 that can be configured for RAID use in several varieties. Hope that helps.

Avoid sparking during electronic repairs with this Insignia antistatic wristband. Its conductive carbon lining provides protective insulation, and it adjusts to fit any size wrist.
 

What do I do with it? It came with no directions. Help us dumb people please!

You wrap the end that looks like a wrist strap on your wrist and then clip the alligator clip to the chassis of your computer. It keeps you from building up static between you and the computer. It keeps the static from discharging through your components when you're working inside the computer.

Bring your original comic or manga characters to life with this Intuos Comic creative pen and tablet. It comes with downloadable Clip Studio Paint Pro and Anime Studio Debut 10 software applications to complete your digital workstation. This pressure-sensitive Intuos Comic creative pen and tablet recognize touch gestures for easy zooming and panning.
 

I see this comes with an installation CD. Does my laptop need a CD drive for opporation? What are laptop requirements to opporate this?

You can load the drivers and such from the CD but it is always recommended to download the latest of everything from Wacom's web site. If a download is not an option then you definitely need a CD reader. Loading the required software doesn't take long and is pretty straight forward. Once loaded you don't need the drive to operate the tablet. Good luck

Does the multi touch effect drawing? Like when your hand is resting on the pad as you draw, does it disturb the pointer?

It isn't supposed to interfere with drawing and if it does there is one of the quick controls that you can program to toggle touch on and off with the push of a button. I usually keep my touch off until I really need it for something then a tap of a button and full control is achieved.

Ideal for photography, art and design applications, this Wacom Intuos Professional PTH451 pen and tablet assist you in your creative process. The tablet's multitouch interface with gesture support allows simple navigation of on-screen content.
 

Is there no software bundle? Last Intuos Pro I purchased came with bundled software, and even the cheapy consumer-level photo tablet comes wit the MacPhun apps.

There is minimal software that is included at no charge a animation suite and there are a couple of trial titles.

Does the pen have the same level of sensitivity as the medium tablet? In other words, is the only difference the size of the tablet?

The small, Medium and large are all the same in regard to sensitivity. The only difference is the size. Taking that into consideration the size does matter depending on what you're using it for. I use it to touch up photos and make selection in Photoshop. If you're using it as a drawing tablet then you might want to use the bigger models to get the long sweeping strokes used in drawing or illustration. I would suggest trying the sizes if possible, which can be difficult since they don't have them on display usually. It is the best way to be sure of how it feel with your style of use. Good Luck!!

Save time when you batch-edit photographs with Adobe Photoshop Elements 15. Sort photos automatically with the software’s enhanced smart tagging feature and find pictures via geotags or visual similarity. Specialized tools within the program let you fix frowns, remove camera shake and remove red-eye, making Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 an invaluable addition to your photography needs.
 

IS THIS ACTUALLY A DISC INSTALL OR A DOWNLOAD

Retail box contains a disc and instruction to use the disc and can be downloaded as well. If you get a retail download card then it can only be downloaded. Either way you do it you need a Adobe account online. There is no extra cost involved but you need to use the ID to register the software and get the install code. After that you can continue without any more interaction with Adobe if you choose. Good Luck!

I am enrolled in Adobe Photoshop for this semester & in the email the instructor sent said she will be using Adobe CC. What is that program? I don't know if this one is right.

Elements is not Creative Cloud (CC) this would not be what the instructor is talking about. There are many tools that are the same but CC is much more powerful and if you're instructor is doing anything other than Photoshop in the class this will not have it, such as Illustrator or Lightroom, etc. Adobe CC (the full suite) is many programs that Adobe has and Photoshop is just one of them. You can get an Adobe CC subscription for just Photoshop and Lightroom for 9.99 a month. The full CC is quite a bit more a month. Go to the Adobe web site and you can see everything they have to offer. Good Luck and have fun!!

do I have to buy a subscription along with the disc

At this time Elements is a single user license that does not require a subscription. There is no way of knowing what Adobe might do in the future but right now it's buy disc, load and go. No other costs involved.
