found a shimano calcutta 250 and falcon rod that looked like it had been underwater around 8 to 10 years,,, cleaned the reel up, with CLR , the rod and reel combo was around 350.00 total... I can imagine a big hybrid yanked it overboard and ruined someones week.,.,
Nice, I wish it was that easy for me. Here in Michigan, our frost-free outdoor faucets are 10-12" long, which means they are plumbed inside walls. In my case finished inside walls. I've had to do 3 so far, one more to go but it's in a finished ceiling with textured drywall.
Step-by-step tutorial, with clear visual aids. After watching a bunch of other "fluff" videos about this topic, yours was refreshing useful. Going out to put your tips in action in just three hours!
This was a wonderful and very informative video. I have two camera systems. One is a Canon R5 ML and used a f/4 70-200mm lens at a indoor gym shooting a girls volleyball game. The results were sad! I had to use a extreme high ISO around 1600 with a speed of near 1200 at f/4.0. First I could not see what the hell I was shooting as the VF was too dark. 2nd I could not review the images I just took. 3rd when trying to see the images in LR all there was was a black square. I had to boost the exposure to 5.0 to even work in LR and gosh, crappy images. I called Canon and with a ML camera unless you use a fast lens f/2.8 or higher you are SOL in seeing what you are shooting due to the EVF. I went to another game, same environment using my Nikon D4s with a 80-200mm f/2.8 lens. I could at least see what I was shooting with the optical view finder. Still could not review on the camera what I shot. Until I found your video on how to import the images with the +2.0 or in my case a +4.0 exposure I could only see the images one by one in Light Room. Your video was an extreme help. Thanks so much. I will not be using a ML camera for indoor sports.
I kept getting water in my basement in a small area....the carpet would get wet.... finally decided to do some digging to find out what the issue is. The spigot is directly outside of where the wetness keeps appearing. Thank you for this man, I know what I'm doing tomorrow!
I was a little surprized you were able to break that old faucet loose so easily. I know around here most often they have to cut out some drywall inside in order to repair most faucets. I see a lot of these every year due to my job. I need to use my customer's faucets on an almost daily basis. I've seen a number of flooding in homes due to this problem. Just in the last month one customer had a badly flooded basement and lost a lot of carpet and other expenses due to it. I always recommend covering the faucet with something in winter even if it's a supposedly freeze proof faucet. Trust me, there is no such thing. Any faucet can freeze and burst. In fact the faucets that are designed not to freeze are by far the worst of all in my experience. Most of the ones in my area were not installed correctly. They should be perfectly sealed against the wall and they are supposed to have a slight pitch downward so all the water will drain once you remove the hose. It is extremely rare I see a correctly installed faucet in my area. Freezing faucets that burst like that is quite a common occurrance here in SE Missouri. Been seeing this since 1987 and nothing has changed even on fairly new homes!!! COVER YOUR FAUCETS and you will not likely ever have this happen again.
was shooting a little league baseball game at night. ISO was Auto ISO set to minimum 1000. i should have used a lesser number. Aperature was blinking. shots came out way too dark and i was using a Nikon D850 and Nikkor 70-200 2.8 lens. how can i correct the dark images?
1/1000 sec.....???..... pas pour tous les sports intérieurs, sûrement pas pour du hockey ! Le hockey c'est 1/1600 sec ou 1/2000 pour les niveaux de hockey professionnels sinon vous aurez un peu de flou de mouvement. Également en hockey, la grande partie blanche de le patinoire aura tendance à fausser le posemètre de votre appareil alors attention à ne pas trop sous-exposer.
Excellent video... But it cost me $1300... I had to buy a new lens lol. I got some very nice photos of my cheerleader niece during her competitions. Thanks for an awesome and to the point video
Great video, but i'm disagree with the ISO item. I've realized that to avoid noise you have to overexpose the shoot even if you have to go with high ISO. The noise appear in the shadows and if I overexpose the image about 0,3 point, I achieve better quality picture. It sound weird but if you don't have fast lenses and you need a frozen image don't be afraid to use the high ISO. (my regular setting with Canon 77D and very low light: 1/500, f/4, ISO 6400).
I used the canon 77D with a 50mm 1.4 lens and it did amazing but I see where you’re coming from. I also had to do the same thing and it worked wonders.
Great job joshua, I like your comment about you can fix the photo in lightroom if it is less than 2 stops underexposed. I just shot a basketball game last week and was I was using my R5 with 24-70mm lense and shooting at F2.8, shutter speed at 2000 iso. It was underexposed but fixed easily in lightroom. I could have bumped my iso to 4000 but I am sure you will not see a difference in the photo quality by fixing in post. One trick I like to use is save a custom set up at iso 400, shutter speed at 1/100 of a second and F2.8. This would be used at time outs or bench shots where shutter speed is not a necessity. This way you get a better quality photos. Have a great week.
Thanks for the video, joshua, seems like you have the same problem on these small lakes that I have -- too many small fish. I'm convinced the bigger ones are out offshore but where ? I can't find 'em.
