Great Accessory for iPhone Video

Well built and works well. Very handy accessory for steady photos/videos with your mobile phone. I hate shaky videos, don't you? Especially in low light, this is a must have because most phones have a fixed aperture, and after the camera has raised it's ISO(sensitivity), the only thing left is to lower it's shutter speed, resulting in blurry shots. Do yourself a favor and get this!

What You Need If You Are On The Road

I travel a lot and use my phone on the job, running work related apps in addition to normal calls, texts, etc. When I'm out of the vehicle or office, this is great insurance. I never worry that I will end up with a dead device. For what I do, I feel like this would keep me alive for a few days IF I was unable to connect my phone to the wall or car. I have never completely discharged it, but my top off charges seem to take a reasonable amount of time. Not as quickly as I'd like, but I wouldn't consider it slow. Bought mine on sale, so there was nothing close in terms of juice per $. Seems well built. Love the LCD display of capacity, and multiple charging ports. Fairly hefty, but not something you couldn't keep in pocket or purse. This may not be right for all users, but for the scenario I've described, it's darn near perfect!

Inexpensive But Effective Light Modifier

Verified Purchase:Yes
I recently picked up this accessory. I've been interested in this type of modifier for quite some time, but they can get pretty pricey for the big name products.
I use manual flash with manual exposure, so I can't speak for TTL(camera uses preflash to calculate power & exposure), but with this method, it definitely broadened and softened the light. The quality of light is soft and flattering, and the subject is more evenly lit.
The only thing I didn't like is that there seems to be a pretty hefty light loss. Of course that will be the case with any flash diffuser, but just be aware that you will have to raise your flash power or change your ISO to get proper exposure, and be sure to keep lot's of fresh batteries around!

What's great about it: Makes on camera flash much more useful.
What's not so great: Substantial flash power loss.

Saw this on markdown and thought I'd try it. I don't use this for graphics or photos, but every text document I've printed(with my Kodak ESP9) has turned out with nice crisp text, very readable, no runs/smearing. Seems to be really good stuff.....

Does the job at a reasonable price.

I was looking for an affordable juicer. Usually that means giving up valuable features. This juicer has more than the average for it's price range. I like the large pulp bin. That means you can juice quite a bit without having to stop and empty the thing. There is a valve to close the flow of juice so you can stop and empty the juice into another container if you're making large batches. The pulp that is leftover is usually fairly dry, which is the sign of an efficient machine that makes the most out of your costly produce. I usually re-run the pulp and get a little more, but it depends on what I'm putting in the machine. Most of the time, one run is enough. This machine disassembles down to just the base, so it is fairly easy to clean, whether by hand or in the dishwasher, but keep in mind juicing is a time consuming and messy process. If you are on some program and need lots of juice frequently, or want to quickly grab some on the way out in the morning, I highly recommend juicing the night before....

What's great about it: Good yield. Most of the parts can be put in the dishwasher.
What's not so great: Juice reservoir could be bigger. But you still get 1-2 servings.

Give your smartphone or tablet the charge it needs to get through the day with this mophie power reserve 2X. An LED indicator light displays the current battery level, and the digital power management system delivers the appropriate charge to each of your devices. With its compact size, this mophie power reserve 2X is conveniently portable.
Does this charger include a multi-cord adaptor for multiple devices, i.e. Iphone, android, etc, or do you have to supply your own cord for charging?
There is a (short!) cord to connect it to a USB port(computer or wall charger). Once the device is charged, that same cord should work to connect and charge most Android devices. For Apple, you will need the cord that came with the iPhone/iPad, or you can get one anywhere from Best Buy, to your local convenience store, with the appropriate connector....

Why does my rocketfish diffuser causes an overexposure with 430EXII
I use a Canon T2i. It works ok for a few photos then they all start to be overexposed, completely white images.
This is a guess on my part, but hopefully something you can check.....
My Rocketfish diffuser seems to have a fairly heavy light loss. It's possible that it is interfering with the preflash that the Canon TTL system uses to determine proper flash power & exposure.
IF that is the case, you can use flash compensation to reduce the power of the flash, and hopefully have no more blown out shots.
I don't own a 430, but I would imagine if flash exposure compensation is not adjustable on the 430, then it can be done from the T2i's menu system. Check your flash/camera manuals.
Hope this helps...
