Worked with USB 2 sdcard reader

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to use with a cheap at Targus USB 2 card reader and it works well. Photos recognized it and pulled pics and vids off without issue.
Note that you can’t use card readers that pull a lot of power and the USB 3 reader I tried didn’t work either. Apple limits the amount of power that a usb device can pull. So some testing is in order to find a combo that works. Fancy, expensive and super fast readers likely won’t work. But a cheap Targus reader I got for $10 at Walmart works great.

Aim your camera with precision by using this Manfrotto Element Traveller tripod. Its aluminum ball head with Arca-type quick-release plate supports your zoom lenses, and it also functions as a full-size monopod with its detachable legs. This compact Manfrotto Element Traveller tripod collapses to 1.3 feet for easy portability, and it extends up to 5.38 feet.

Compact and light

You can get lighter and more compact, but trade off cost and stability. I think this pod is a good blend. I got it on sale and took advantage of a buy 3 camera accessories and get one at 25% off to really save on this. It seems stable and folds well. Time will tell how easy it is to use in the field as I just got it and haven’t really been able to use it.

Great battery life and performance

There aren’t many choices in Bluetooth mice, most require a dongle which I hate. This is inexpensive, compact and works very well with Win10 out of the box.

Enjoy stability on the go with these GoPro ABQRT-002 tripod mounts, which are compatible with most GoPro cameras and most standard tripods, so you can get the ideal shot. The included mini tripod provides a lightweight foundation you can carry with you.

They work

Not much else to say. But. One that they are plastic, so don’t abuse them. If you want something more rugged, look for other brands online that use aluminum.

Hillarious

Some of the best comedy of "old". Well worth picking up out of the bargain bin if you can find it, just to have in your collection. Bill Murray was at his comedic best, and they let him run with it and ad-lib a lot of his lines.

Classic film

I can't comment on the quality of the DVD transfer itself as I haven't watched the DVD (yet). But the movie is a classic Mel Brooks comedy. I also suggest that you look on YouTube for some of the behind-the scenes vids about the making of the movie.

Expensive - but worth it for the accidental damage
on October 6, 2017
Posted by: Chezdude
from Hillsborough, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
For a tablet like the 10.5" iPad Pro 512 GB ($999 list), this is worth it for the accidental damage protection alone. That tablet is so light that it's easy to forget that it's a high tech marvel and fragile.

The Smart Cover for the Apple® iPad® 10.2" (7th Generation 2019), 10.5" iPad® Pro and iPad® Air is constructed from fine leather to protect the display and front of your device. The Smart Cover automatically wakes your iPad when opened and puts it to sleep when closed. It folds into different positions to create a stand for reading, typing, or watching videos. And it's easy to remove, so you can snap it on and off whenever you want.

Look for an open box, otherwise it's pricey

Verified Purchase:Yes
It's basically the smart cover, just in leather. So if that is worth the premium to you, I'd say go for it.
I bought an open box and it works well. Light, and well designed. The only quibble is that the section connecting the magnetic hinge to the cover is a little long, so the cover skews a lot more than previous smart covers I've had when folded back.

Best iPad yet
on October 6, 2017
Posted by: Chezdude
from Hillsborough, NC
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've owned 3 previous iterations of the iPad, and each was better than the last in one way or another. The new 10.5" pro is better in every way. It's lighter (than my 3rd gen retina), faster, better screen, ... so on and so forth.
If you have an older one and are looking for an upgrade, I recommend that 10.5". To me, the 12" is too big and bulky. the 10.5" is slight enough to be held in one hand, but big enough to be able to draw, right and edit on with ease.

The new Multi-Touch subsystem in the new iPad 9.7" and iPad Pro gives Apple Pencil striking capabilities alongside pixel perfect precision. Using incredibly sensitive pressure and tilt sensors, Apple Pencil instantly recognizes when you are pressing harder or shifting its angle. So you can vary line weight, create subtle shading, and produce a wide range of artistic effects — just like with a conventional pencil.
 

What's in the box ? Apple website shows : Apple Pencil, Lightning adapter, and extra tip.

Yup, that's about it. And the "manual".
