You're very welcome! Yes, I have info in the video description above. Hmm, I think side-to-side (width). I can't recall about the vertical plane. I'll have to check that. Maybe it's all of it, like most lenses? I think you can use an ND filter with it and the Air 3. I don't, but a lot of people use ND filters for Air 3s. Obviously, there are use cases for this, but I remember looking into NDs and decided against it for me, for now for some reason.
Seemed fine to me. I can look again. Also, please remember this video was made relatively quickly (not super set up prior, etc.) and was made to show the general difference in point of views between the two lenses on roughly the same flight path and area/landmarks, which it does IMO. Even as is, this video took me many hours to produce and post. People seem to be asking for a "perfect" video on a somewhat niche topic. Yet, many have no videos up themselves, lol. Gotta love the Internet. Bottom line for me is, I have a family and am always super busy with work and projects, etc. Every video can't be "perfect," but I do my best to bring the audience good-great content on a wide range of subjects IMO. I appreciate everyone for watching and commenting. Thanks!
@@ConservativeNewMedia thank you so much for your reply. I am sorry I didn't mean to be rude. I was trying to ask if the wide lens is sharper than the original lens or it was something wrong in post editing. I haven't posted a video myself, but constructive feedback should always be welcome. I understand the effort needed behind every video and how difficult is to balance day job and family nowadays. Cheers
@@lastnamename No worries and totally agree. I would simply add/amend to constructive reasonable feedback, lol. So, for instance there is a balance between volume and quality. I try to cover a lot of subjects, and I'll never have the quality of say a Mr. Beast video, as I don't have anywhere near that budget. That being said, I love constuctive feedback as it helps me improve, make videos the audience wants, or alert me to things (mono audio) that may be off in my settings or something. So, it's all good. To your Q: IMO, I perceive both lenses to be of roughly equal quality and I actually preferred the wide for a bit. However, the wide has more distortion at the edges or upon movement, like all wide-angle lenses. Bottom line for me, I use the regular lens (made default for a reason, I assume), BUT the WA lens is awesome when you need it for like tight shots, landscape shots, real estate, auto, etc. That's why it's so amazing to be able to change fast. Love them both! Thanks for your comment and clarification. Cheers!
The 608 cross trainers 2018 and before were wonderful. I was a gym owner for 14 years. and wore them all the time. Also played racquetball and did wind sprints in them. SINCE 2018 the new Versions ( I bought some in 2023 after the last 8 pair wore out) are TERRIBLE with hard soles and thin inserts. My Plantar Faciitis that had been gone for 20 years came back in 3 days. I am now searching for new shoes. I would like to see New Balance go back to making them the way they did 2018 and before when made in Indonesia.
@@1KSarah This was before they started "Versions" All is said on the inside of the tongue of the shoe was MX608WT and now they add V5 or whatever versions before that after 2018. The huge and game changing difference is that if you took out the insert on the earlier shoes I wore and pushed you thumb into the sole, it had some give to it. If you take out the insert with the Version 5 shoes I received on my last order and push on the sole it is a STONE HARD mesh and the insert does not make up the difference, ever the latest thicker inserts. The shoe still feel way harder that even the worn down ones pre 2018 that I still have. They really need to change back to the materials for the sole they were using before 2018. Most of mine were 2017's and one 2018 of my last 8 shoes. There are many similar replies on the New Balance site if you go to the one and two star reviews. They rank them in star order instead of by date submitted. Hope that wasn't too long.
Great attempt at a demonstration, but much of the video was too dark to see. Also, would be better if you showed the same pic locations to compare. just a thought. Your the one on RU-vid not me.
Thanks for the comment VDP. I think this provides a good comparison and you see the same landmarks, etc. Also, it was a quick video with the family, etc. That being said, there is always room to improve and I appreciate the feedback!
The Alfa should be compared to an Audi S4 which is a faster car. The Alfa is a more traditional looking saloon where as the 2024 Audi feels cheaper inside than the previous generation.
@@ConservativeNewMedia Yes but spec wise it is more than the Audi you compared it to. Alfa has weakness in plastic used throughout cooling system like some newer cars. Radiator end caps are not as strong as aluminium.
Which shoe is what size u kind of jumped around. Should I size the noosa the same as my keyano 29? I sized up my keyano and I find them a little to long.
Audi has overall better quality, but drive an Alfa u forget about Audi quality . Design both are good, but Alfa is more attractive also inside alfa feels more sporty and more wide . As a previous owner of all Germans when I set down in Alfa I feel sitting in first gen Panamera . And driving is very similar to. In this class I think bmw 3 series is winner then audi then alfa and last c class
Thanks for the comment. I was trying to do the best video given the time constraints. I went roughly the same route and I was losing light. I think the comparison is pretty obvious, but we'll keep trying to make better videos.
Sorry man but there's no way you have an 9900k on that mobo. It's a totally different socket. U have lga2011 X79 express. It's a Xeon platform meant for extreme enthusiasts and building servers. Gaming was not really it's advertised feature. VIRTUALIZATION was. intel Vt-x and VT-d. It's also usuallly confined to pcie 2.0 speeds because nvidia never decided to release 3.0 officially for that chipset. There's ways but it will for most pppl fall back to the oldest link in the chain and everything else adopts that property. X99 wouldbe it's successor, also lga2011, then x299 a few yrs ago. It's due for an update soon. They're usually the most expensive mobos and cpu comboniation u can buy.. like $700 for a mobo and around the same for a cpu when they new. Actually x79 was about $400, cpu was around that or double and up depending on core count and extrene editions. I had a 3930k, and a 3960x. The following generation to those, stilll holds fastest cpu overclock records because they built em that good, without cielings...
Literally I had to turn ON mono audio mode to be able to sit and watch the video. Kindly recheck videos and fix issues before upload. Just a gentle suggestion. Thank you! 😊
I love m2k tekno at the gym. it's like wearing a cloud. But unfortunately it's out of production as far as I see. About air monarch I jave it but it's not as comfy as m2k but I love the bulky look. And mike tyson uses it at his boxing training nowadays lol. Jake Paul will get his ass whooped by a daddy sneakers guy lol.
