The Sonicpresence SP15C spatial microphone ... and a pair of silicone ears, with I will attach to my cork filled head. And ... I can sit in my seat and wear the SP15C on MY ears. What clever things might I find to do with these things ? View AttachmentMarc, did your wife purchase those ears???

original camera grips are ridiculously expensive, no matter the brand. The one for my Nikon D500 costs ~$360 new. I had been thinking about getting one of the lower cost "clones", but then I found a used one in "like new" conditions from MPB at 1/3 the price and clicked on the "buy" button in the blink of an eye . It works perfectly and does indeed look new.
A couple of years ago I was going to buy the clone for my Nikon D750 but held off and got lucky when B&H had a sale on the OEM Nikon for a third of the price! It's nice, but there is no way it's worth the original price. Yep they are. Bought mine used with a 6 month warranty from a dealer. $72.00! Excellent shape.

When loaded with the sled full of alkaline batteries it could be used as a weapon . But $367 new?! Uh... No.
To be fair, it must also be a matter of economy of scale. Of all accessories, grips for DSLR or MIrrorless cameras are certainly no high runners.

My 1D mk.4 Canon would be my weapon. Beast with integrated grip. Mostly my distance grabber for car races and airshows etc.

Pink Floyd: Momentary Lapse of Reason Remixed from the original multi track master. Blu-Ray Audio in DTS-MA 5.1. If it's as well done as their other Blu-Ray issues I'll be very happy.

Really good interview with S&M ... they discuss how and why they did many of the test files, challenges, differences with TV's and HDR formats. Audio discussion starts about an hour in.

Mine are supposed to be delivered today, but I’m visiting my Mom today in Orlando, so it’ll just have to sit in the mailbox until tomorrow when I get back.

New speakers started it all a week ago.(Sonus Faber Lumina III) Then we added 2 new book cases and an entertainment center, wall mounted the tv. This was all done today so we still have some details to work through. My Audio station previously was set up on a sofa table against a wall that was behind you( speakers included) prior to these changes. (Second pic) We are now properly facing the audio.
