What Warcraft Blueray?
on December 24, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
Guess this was supposed to be a gift from my wife. I'll try to act surprised. I'm not sure how you are supposed to review a Blueray anyway. I have seen the movie. It was decent although i was a bit put out with the feminized orcs & cutesy orc baby. I guess my favorite parts were the scenes inside various structures from the game.

Seems OK
on December 24, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've only had the camera a couple of weeks. I purchased it for the microscope mode for equipment teardowns but haven't done a teardown since I got the camera so I can't say how well that mode works. I do have a couple of minor complaints.
The biggest one it the on/off switch is exactly where I would expect the shutter. I can't tell you how many time's I've turned it off instead of taking a picture. The shutter is on the far right of the edge, making it difficult to hold the camera and take a picture with one hand.
The lens cover seems to be plastic. You would think for $400 you could get some kind of hardened glass. I work in a dirty environment & worry about scratching it. I'll probably end up spending another $75 or so getting a neutral filter & adapter to protect it.
Speaking of dirt & grease, I got the black camera because I was afraid the red one would end up smudged. The wrist strap is still a big red thing that I'm sure will start looking pretty tacky. Also, it looks like the lens adaptor only comes in red (not completely sure that is true). What I'm saying is you might as well get the red one if you are going to be adding accessories.
Lastly, I go through the battery pretty fast. Granted I keep the GPS on but I have to charge it every day. It's probably worth buying a charger and extra battery.

Solid so far

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'v only had the printer a few weeks but no major complaints. I loaded the basic drivers instead of the "full" drivers because I've had too much trouble with HP's software in the past - case in point, I still haven't been able to completely remove my old printer drivers. The printer itself seems pretty solid. I only gave it four stars because the touch screen is more difficult to use than the console buttons my old 7500 printer had and I haven't yet been able to access a memory device mounted on the printer over the network (I could on my old 7500 using the basic drivers)

Good Monitor
on December 17, 2016
Posted by: MikeB
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought two of these monitors when one of my old ones started loosing pixels. Only needed one but I guess I'm a little OCD so I replaced both. I also stepped up from 24" to 27". They take up a big chunk of real estate it helps with eye strain for older eyes. The main thing I like about them is they are a lot brighter than my old Samsung monitors. The controls are all on front and easy enough to use. They have built-in speakers but they are pretty tinny. Good enough for my purposes but most people will want a dedicated speaker system. The main thing I have against the monitor is no DVI ports. I ended up using DVI to HDMI adaptor cables. They have dual HDMI ports. I'm not sure what that is about. Note there are no holes in back for mounting to a bracket. Four stars instead of five because of speakers,no DVI ports & no mount points.
