Yo

I want to buy my first gaming mice and I have choose three options

1. Redragon m916 lit 1k
2. Redragon m724 ultra light
3. Redragon m809

I mainly play Minecraft and valorant
In the future I’m hoping to play halo, cod, apex, fortnite
Help me decide yall

[worldly garden]

Not from reddragon

[weary saddle]

Well there’s limited options

[worldly garden]

Where are u buying from tho

[smoky valley]

yea, which country r u buying from

such that redragon is somehow a good brand

[weary saddle]

Sri Lanka

My budget is 5-6k rupees which 16$ and 19$

[worldly garden]

No aliexpress or anything

[weary saddle]

I can order from aliexpress

[smoky valley]

good

order from it then

rapoo, mchose

two good china brands

Hey, I wanted to buy a keyboard I was wondering if you guys think the Rainy 75 is good

[past mesa]

Hey guys im looking for a good headphone to listen to music, play games. But i dont want the "gaming" headphones. Anyone recommend my anything? I have now the Audio Technica M50x

[glad rivet]

Those are supposed to be good... Depends on your budget, though sound is highly subjective and what sounds good to you might not be the same as what sounds good to me.
But I'd recommend open back headphones. Sennheiser HD598 or HD58X works well if you don't have an amplifier, but some people find Sennheiser and open back headphones to be too neutral

[past mesa]

I like this ones but the ear thing the leather is starting to break

I will have a look at those ones, do you by any chance recommend a wireless one?

[glad rivet]

Earpads? You can get new earpads, Dekoni audio have very good replacement earpads

[past mesa]

This parts

[glad rivet]

Not really, I don't have much experience with wireless headphones myself, too many drawbacks imo. Sennheiser Momentum 4(?) is supposed to be good and the Sony whatever ä, though I personally use Quietcomfort ultra as they are among the few that fit my big Dumbo-ears. Not the greatest sound though

[glad rivet]

Yup, earpads, Dekoni should have them for M50x

[past mesa]

they ship to portugal?

[glad rivet]

Probably, there's a reseller in Netherlands that ship to Finland at least

@worldly garden

goes so hard

[trail kite]

anyone can recommend a kvm switch for
dp output, usbc/thunderbolt output, usb-c output, usb-a output,

and
usb-a input x2 (duh, kb+m, although they are high hz but idk if that matters), 3x video inputs (1 laptop with only usb c, one macbook hdmi, one for dp from a gpu)

does this even exist?

[smoky valley]

good for beginners ig

[scenic isle]

I mostly like it because it looks pretty, do you know any better options?

[smoky valley]

just buy boards you like

preference is king

there’s also the wave75 if you’re interested

[scenic isle]

Okay, thank you!

[worldly garden]

Smash

[civic iris]

Damn

[glad rivet]

There are plenty of 3 input KVMs but I'm not sure about your use case, if I even follow, Level1techs KVM is probably your best bet, though very expensive.

[smoky valley]

the thai sublegend👍

[trail kite]

got it

[trail kite]

Wait, if there are plenty 3 input ( you mean 3 output for video+data? )
Shouldn’t it be fine then?

[void geyser]

Im not doing split BS anymore

I actually like full bs on 60

better keycap compatibility and it looks nicer IMO

[tame thistle]

From FB Marketplace. Good condition, and only half the retail price :D

[weary saddle]

Is the delux m400 a good mouse for gaming?

[glad rivet]

Not sure, I assume you use your gpu with your laptop and that would require inputs from both being output simultaneously, which is a bit of an edge case that might not be supported by all KVMs

[trail kite]

no, i have 2 laptops and a normal pc

[glad rivet]

Then you should be fine with something like this https://www.kvm-switch.de/en/kvm-switches/3-port-kvm-switches/

Mac support could be a limiting factor though

[trail kite]

is there smth special with macs? do they require some special cert for the peripherals?

[smoky valley]

if you’re not playing FPS competitively you’re fine

just find a good shape and you’re fine

[trail kite]

looks nice, but not sure about 2 monitors

[grizzled cosmos]

wanted to get a new keyboard for my pc since my old one is getting a bit fucked, (previous was a gk61, 60%) ideally i want a 100% keyboard, some decently sounding switches (ideally more quiet) and some minimal rgb

if anyone can help me since i dont really know what im doing it’d be greatly appreciated

[smoky valley]

can u do with a 96%

good 100% are rare

[grizzled cosmos]

yeah then fs

[smoky valley]

budget?

[grizzled cosmos]

i just want to be able to not need to press FN when i want to click any other button than the alphabet

[grizzled cosmos]

kinda amenable, just send good ones you’d recommend

im UK btw

[smoky valley]

most keebs are ANSI but kchron has options like the v5

which i personally use

it’s fine

but the one on sale is the max ver and i don’t use that

[grizzled cosmos]

with all due respect i have 0 idea what half of those words mean

[smoky valley]

keychron v5, search it up

idk if anyone has better recs tho

[grizzled cosmos]

ANSI meaning?

[smoky valley]

a 96% for reference

[smoky valley]

small enter

[grizzled cosmos]

oh

[smoky valley]

this is ANSI

[muted pivot]

I have the tkl version on my wishlist

[glad rivet]

There's QK101 but then you have to be comfortable building it. And paying for it.

ND104 could be a slightly cheaper option

[glad rivet]

Ticktype DP104 is another that seems better than ND104

Is the inphic a9 wireless good budget? Im using an aula f805 right now

Or should I get the atk vxe dragonfly r1

[tame thistle]

My classmate has the A9, and he complains a lot about latency, which wasn't ideal for shooter and other certain games

Meanwhile, I'm using the F9 and it's alright from my experience

[bleak cloud]

Ok thanks i wont get that since 60% of the reason im lookking for a new mouse is shooter games

[bleak cloud]

What f9?

[tame thistle]

Inphic F9

[tame thistle]

Don't just take my advice, btw. You should probably do your own research

I only got my mouse because my cousin also had that mouse in the past 🙃

[bleak cloud]

When i did the results were all over the place

[tame thistle]

The funny thing is that I was supposed to be getting a wired Inphic W9 mouse, but I ended up getting the wireless Inphic F9 instead 🙃

[tame thistle]

Yeah, I can definitely see why you asked here lol

It's fine tho

This is kinda normal in some more unheard-of brands, unlike Logitech, Razer, etc.

[smoky valley]

you could try researching mchose and rapoo

i personally use monka m3 but since i’m not an FPS player a 3395 is overkill

[flat dock]

why would the snobs hate them

I wanted to buy those so I'm curious

[brave night]

People on the interwebs seem to like doing that, just preparing myself 😄

[brave night]

Oh also, they're on sale at Linsoul with free shipping, at least for me as an EU citizen. For $150 I couldn't be more pleased tbh.

I am sure there's things that are better looking at specs and curves etc - but there's always something ''better'' out there, subjectively anyway.

[flat dock]

yeah honestly though you can get stuff that objectively measure perfectly (barring sound profile preferences) for like $10-20 though so I think people go overboard

and then the rest of everything else you can technically tune with a parametric eq if you are a super nerd

[brave night]

Possible. I have a few $20-30 pairs, and they don't produce the same detail, not even close.

TBF, I bought these mainly for gaming and some music listening as a second task.

I now hear footsteps and small details I previously didn't 😅

all in all - I am happy enough with what I got for the price.

[flat dock]

detail is something you can add back in with EQ though

but i am not very good at that

maybe i have to be careful how much time i spend in #audio-tech

[brave night]

I might be using the incorrect wording.

When I say detail, i mean the resolution or sound stage probably and frequencies that are there/not there

I’ve tried eq:ing my Chu 2:s as well but I can’t bring certain things out of them, gotten me killed by not being able to hear certain audio queues.

[smoky valley]

they're uncomfortable for me

can't say the same for everyone else

but they're a pain to put on

ya gotta put them around your ear and that's a hassle ngl

[brave night]

Yeah that's kinda how most IEMS work 🤔

[flat dock]

but technically all of those are just frequency response and if you know what you're doing, can EQ

unless it's like, extremely far off but most decent stuff isnt

[boreal rivet]

Not really

[flat dock]

I mean this gets discussed like once every 2 weeks in #audio-tech and it seems to be a pretty clear consensus, I don't believe I misstated it at all though

I guess it could be slightly affected by your perception of ear being plugged, but all iems will feel like that so that's more iem vs open back

[boreal rivet]

Every transducer has limits to how much you can eq them before distorting

[flat dock]

Well that's why I tried to specify as long as it's still in the ballpark from the start, so obviously don't try to apply an autoeq that puts +10 dB

[azure wave]

which iems are distorting 10db above some kind of sane listening level like 80db

iems basically have no measurable properties outside of fr

[azure wave]

What good atk shark keyboards are wireless and good on a budget i tried searching some up and google gave me this list

I was gonna go for the atl shark R85He but i found out its not wireless

[void geyser]

well what are you after in a keyboard?

[void geyser]

HE and Wireless don't go great together

[bleak cloud]

Good polling rate wireless mechanical and if possible hall effect since I heard atk shark has some good budget wireless options

[bleak cloud]

Oh i see

[void geyser]

standard polling rate is 1k for most of their wired keyboards

goes down to 500 on 2.5ghz and 125 on bt iirc

for HE 8k is standard for them

[bleak cloud]

So what should I go for? A wireless since Ill use it for 60% games and 40% of my actual tasks

[void geyser]

honestly?

just get a non he

it sounds better, you don't have to worry about battery life while on wireless

[bleak cloud]

Whats the standard for polling rate on their none he?

[void geyser]

For those that use IEM:s on the daily.

Do any of you use different size ear tips? My right side, I usually wear a small and on my left I have to wear a medium size tip or it ends up slipping out (insert ''that's what she said'' jokes here).

[fiery sail]

i would, but the differences are too big, so 90% of the time i use the same size, but usually my right sits very slightly lose while my left is a bit too tight

just do whatever feels and sounds good, or get custom ones.
if they are more on the tight side but swapping to a smaller one would be too small, what can help a lot is pressing down on the ear tip before inserting so it expands in your ear. you can rub it slightly to make it warmer to help it a bit more.

i do that on my left ear, but on the right ear i dont

Im looking to buy a keyboard, so far ive been using one i got off temu years ago, but i want to finally get something better, my friend recommended me the logitech g413 SE US because it doesnt have those annoying borders. That being said i dont really have any knowledge on what keyboards would be good at that price range. The price of this keyboard is around 60-70 euro. Is the logitech one a good choice or would you guys have recommendations you think are better? Would rather keyboard be 100% if that matters

[fiery sail]

what games do you play?
would you be willing to pay more for better picture quality?
have you had experience with curved monitors before?

[fervent dragon]

shooters, platformers and rpgs. depends on how much more. and no i have limited experience with curved monitors.

[fiery sail]

you are in the US, right?

[fervent dragon]

yes

[fiery sail]

at 250$ and 350$ we enter new display technologies that, for most people who can afford it, is definitely worth the upgrade, if they want their games to look good

guessing from your games, that doesnt really seem to be the case, is it?

technically at 350 you would also get a lot better motion clarity, but just for that its not worth it

[full plover]

IPS generally best for text clarity if use it for general browsing or coding and reading then are typically nicer OLED can go completely off if no backlight so deep black typically but are the big differences from generic LCD with backlight (first curved monitor I got has higher than average refresh rates but text always looked glimmery/fuzzy especially when small fonts) IPS gets rid of that but can't necessarily get full black like OLED

The curve felt like it was noticeable for only a short period of time you get used to it pretty quick but not sure I really felt there was an advantage (newer ips one is flat but bigger too so takes up more field of view anyway)

The 180Hz on that listing contradicted by its own thumbnails too so I'd assume it's actually 144Hz at native res but seems a little disingenuous Amazon listing wise

The extra 40Hz not gonna matter if you aren't pumping out frames as fast as it's refreshing you get to see the same image twice, even if adds to some perceived smoothness is kinda nothing burger, moving from 30-60 or 60-120 there's some noticeable smoothness but beyond that pretty sure is bigger number better advertising... Having support for free sync or gsync between GPU and display to avoid tearing makes more of qol difference

[chilly perch]

I think modern oleds have fixed the problem but any oled that has bad subpixel layouts and/or lacking software to fix it looks absolutely atrocious idk why they ever made those types

[fiery sail]

the text clarity issue only exists in 1st and 2nd gen WOLED

QD OLED never had this problem, tandem WOLED fixed it with their new subpixel layout.
how much of a difference there is in Hz that you perceive as meaningful is subjective.
to some people (like me) that is reached at ~100 already. for others, they sperceive a meaningful difference going from 480 to 540.
studies have shown most people can perceive at least minor difference in the 10-20k Hz range, with the highest result being almost 40k Hz where someone could easily tell if it had more or less Hz.
peopel and their eyes are different.
also IPS is LCD.
there are different LCD types like TN, VA and IPS as the most common ones.

also the issues and advantages with curved monitors are also about concerns about viewing angle, e.g. if the monitor is only watched when in the perfect spot or maybe also as a kind of TV to watch videos when sittign in another part of the room and also that curved monitors are awkward to use as a secondary display once you upgrade.

truly appreciate the effort but there was more misinformation than information in shauns text

[full plover]

Mmm hmm all those games you play at 500FPS

[fiery mango]

Hey, I’m thinking about upgrading my setup but I’m not sure what would make the biggest difference.

What would you upgrade first in my situation?

• Upgrade my second monitor (currently just a basic 60Hz 1080p, used for Discord/browser, not gaming)
• Switch to IEMs (currently using an Astro A50 Gen 4)
• Get a new mouse (currently using a Logitech G502 Lightspeed)

Curious what you’d prioritize and why.

[fiery sail]

i would usually ask for preferences and circumstances or budget

but this one is ver yeasy, get some IEMs

[fiery mango]

Kiwi ears?

[fiery sail]

moondrop spacetravel 2 if you want very entry level wireless ones (technically not called IEMs bc they are wireless)
great to have some earbuds for travel and way better than any 100$ earbud u can findm, while costing a quarter of it

otherwise, i'd recommend watching IEM buying guides, although most roads right now lead to the kefine klean ~50$

especially for an entry into IEMs
their sound is very standardised, how the average human likes their sound to be and very close to what they try to replicate, from there u could later get something with more bass, or whatever soundprofile you might want to explore

[fiery mango]

How big would you consider the sound difference between my Astro a50 gen4 and the kiwi astrals, ik the difference is probably big but is it that noticeable for someone who is used to the a50 and has never had anything else

[fiery sail]

why the kiwi astrals?

they are just regular IEMs
they just cost more.

if u are into the aesthetics i can find you some for 40 bucks that look and sound just as good

truth about IEMs is, the drivers are so small, the most expensive ones can be sold with profit for 30$
sure you can make the cable and packaging premium or idk... use real gold in the paint for no rreason, but other than that, and especially beyond 50-70$ its just marketing BS and corporations baiting people in that think more money means they will get sth better and can brag to their friends, when in reality, the only difference was the price

[grim tiger]

probably iems or new mouse. whichever you think is lacking most

[junior sapphire]

Hi, can yall help? Im looking for a nice cheap 1440p ips monitor. Currently have 9070xt and will upgrade to 7500f soon. Idk what to really look at apart from hz, " and the price.

thats quite abundant these days i think you can get some decent ones around 200$

[junior sapphire]

Im looking at the store rn, they have a deal for around 200 dollars for msi mag 275qf, any thoughts on it?

[grim tiger]

heres 3 i found on best buys website. would recommend looking for yourself and maybe asking follow up questions on some you find.

[grim tiger]

i mean it looks fine. its a cheap ips lol

[junior sapphire]

I think 180hz with wider screen will be better since im not playing like esports titles where 240hz actually matters

i'm rocking a razer pro click V2 vertical because my 26-year-old wrist got sick of pronating all the time

i keep an ATK A9 plus as a secondary for competitive shooters tho; it's basically a logitech superlight clone

generally speaking lightweight mice like the superlight are good in all conditions, tho the weight reduction is most appreciated in competitive shooters

but less weight means less fatigue from moving the mouse around a lot, so it's nice for long days of work

[tame thistle]

Correct

[vagrant zealot]

I have used both of the wireless versions, I prefer the Basilisk V3.

[stray cobalt]

So really weird thing to ask but do yall think this is Ai? I honestly can't tell or maybe a combination of both? Ive been looking at it for a few weeks now and I really like it but I've just seen too many red flags with it https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/domitree/domitre-the-transformable-lift-desk-and-pegboard-storage

They also have an Instagram page in which they are following a ai content generator

That and well I saw the Linus video and decided to come here lol

[tame thistle]

I just realized I might need a laptop cooler

[tame thistle]

Personally, while this might be a good idea, you can't really have anything that doesn't fit the supposedly narrow slot that the pegboard is sliding down into

[stray cobalt]

I honestly don't particularly care about that its mainly just to have a spot to put my tools and things i use regularly they say 14cm which seems good enough for me

Im just really concerned that its some type of scam

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ux2hOuJ43tg&pp=ygUIRG9taXRyZWU%3D

Tldr the reason I came here

[vagrant zealot]

Realistically something like this would cost more.

Even if they have good intentions, I am not sure they would be able to fulfill it at this price and have it be any decent.

Unless that 399 is a 10 unit super early bird deal.

anyone got some good ergonomic chairs to upgrade to?
miller seems a bit too steep, the Liber omni novo is currently the one im looking at.. though a bit steep, it seems to be best on market for ergonomic gaming chairs.
can someone confirm?
the most important thing for me is ergonomic support, as the pillows on my old cheap chair is trash and hurts my ass and back.. the liber omni offers almost a fully straight angle, which to me is a huge seller.
the only thing i really dont care much about is the electronics, the massage function from what i heard is at best "soothing" from review videos.. although, i was hoping someone might have more experience

[void geyser]

used herman miller

[old quiver]

that offers worse angling though, as far as ive heard?

[short bolt]

https://www.tesmart.com/products/hdc203-p24
So I'm looking into something like this KVM... is there a better product out there that does what this does at a better price point? Ideally it'd be triple monitor, with USB-C for one device with PD. Second inputs can be more like a traditional KVM for a desktop. This one seems cool because you can pick what display is on what input, but doesn't support VRR.

[errant gyro]

As someone who owns all logitech peripherals but is struggling to find a logitech keyboard that's worth the money is it worth breaking the garden walls with the epomaker RT100 or is there a logitech keyboard that is worth getting that I've missed, currently using the carbon g513 but its starting to double click

I just don't like having too many rgb softwares/bloat and logitech gpro lightspeed and g pro headset is my go to right now for mice and headset

super good been using it for 5+ months its insanly good stays consistant and creamy low delay too

What kind of keyboard even has a perceptible delay

[muted axle]

well i meant that for like copys and offbrand keyboards i had one with bad delay before#

[flat dock]

That's impressive tbh

[muted axle]

agreed

[worldly garden]

Both brand isnt good

[cold zephyr]

Unless you get an actively terrible board, any 2.4G or USB connected keyboard won't really have a perceptible delay on a keyboard

Though if you go into the bluetooth territory, then the nature of a BT connection will introduce quite a bit of latency
especially if it's a cheap bluetooth peripheral

r1 aint overpricing

there is $40 r1 gmk lime here

even tho is ass colorway

but old gmk is old gmk

[void geyser]

it's like cherry

the only reason it's expensive is because it's made in germany / austria

not because they're actually notably high quality

Ive never had thst problem plug it in and put the little bluethooth. Maybe?

i might just buy this to flip it for like £30

It's a good cheap keyboard

I got mine off Facebook Marketplace, swapped the stock blue switches for red ones and replaced the keycaps too

Look up a channel called boardzy on youtube, he reviews virtually every mouse under the sun and im sure he has videos on what style of mouse for specific grips

Although if you find the dav3pro to be big u probably need to look into smaller mice that aren't ergonomic optimised

I have several questions about buying a new Computer Monitor. Namely:

• What kind of Monitor should i get? (TN, VA, IPS, LED, QLED, QD-LED QD-OLED OLED, Etc.)
• What is the best Size for gaming?
• Does a Curved Screen matter?
• What resolution should i get?
• What Refresh rate should i go for?
• What is the ideal Budget?
• What Features should I Look for? (HDR, Freesync, G-sync, Etc.)
• What Brands should i go for?
• What Brands Should i avoid?

[glad rivet]

Yes
depends on your space, how close you sit to it, resolution etc.
it's down to personal preference
depends on your computer
depends on your computer and what you play
the one that won't ruin you or put you in financial distress
depends on all of the above
the ones with the best warranty and customer support within your budget
the ones you can afford to avoid

this is the cheapest 1ms GtG monitor they ahve, so we have quite some headroom, depending on the usecase (1st or 2nd monitor) etc.

@mental quartz
for keyboards its a similar story, starting at 36€ for something perfectly servicable (hot swap + aluminum case) if we include TKL, which is just very, very slightly bigger than 75%
otherwise we are looking at 80€ for similar features or have to give up on a metal case altogether and proibably make even more compromises.
TKL at this budget is a much better choice bc it is so much more popular
we can (and should) get you something better, depending on what switches you would like you have or maybe aesthetics you prefer.

Hey ,
i want to build my 1st custom keyboard and did a bit of looking and those are my criteria:
I need the numpad
250€ budget
metal base
more of a thocky sound
Bluetooth and 2.4G Wireless
minimalist designe

after some diging , this is what i came up with :
base : Monsgeek M2 V5 VIA (black) (bare bone) ( couldnt find any 100% size in barebone available :/ (like M5W or Q6 )
switches : Kailh Box Thick Clicky Jade Switch Set
keycaps : dagaladoo Grey black keycap set 136 key gradient double shot PBT keycaps cherry profile,Side printed

Are those good brand / quality ?
Do i need to buy anything else ? I hear i should buy maybe some lube ? or change for some pre-lubed switches ?
And should i buy some foam or smth else ?
( Oh and btw i m in europe so if you have advice on where i should buy my stuffs it would help me a lot ^^ most of the ytb video i saw are for the us... )
Tyy ^^
ps : rn i m using a old corsair K55 and i've NEVER touched a good switch so do i need to buy a switch tester kit first

[drifting venture]

I want to build a 170% DIY keyboard, and I’ve been looking into it for a bit.

The main issue I keep running into is the microcontroller. Most of the ones I’ve found only seem to have around 20 GPIO pins, which doesn’t seem like enough for all the keys. I also don’t really want to spend a ton of time making extra hardware myself.

Some people told me to use a shift register of some kind, but I’m not sure if that’s the best option.

I did find this type of PCB that seems to double the I/O and costs about 9 euros, and I’d probably use it with a Raspberry Pi Pico. Does that sound like a good idea?

This is more or less what I want to build, but slightly different. My usecase is general productivity tasks.

[void geyser]

[void geyser]

someone in keyboard atelier would be able to explain it better

but you want to use a thing called "digital i/o"

this basically extends the available GPIO that's usable to your microcontroller

[drifting venture]

Thank you I will go in there

[void geyser]

NP let me know if you have any issues finding a link to it

for the discord server

[drifting venture]

Joined it

[void geyser]

Goodluck!

[drifting venture]

appreciate it 🔥

[void geyser]

also

worth mentioning, someone kinda already did what you done

https://joshajohnson.com/wombat/

[drifting venture]

wow

this one has a bunch of knobs also

the only thing is I wouldnt get access to custom PCBs

[void geyser]

me when kicad

[drifting venture]

I live in third world country where most people do not ship things

he just used 4 microcontrollers

[void geyser]

aliexpress

[drifting venture]

custom PCBs?

[void geyser]

well, you won't get fabricated PCBs

you want JLC or something

[drifting venture]

I do not know what that is

also I feel like wiring it myself rather than using PCB is more cost effective/time effective for me

[void geyser]

https://jlcpcb.com/

They're my go to for fabrication

[void geyser]

if it's a one off, mostlikely yes

also by the look of things, this is your first project, so I would start somewhere small

Watch Joe scotto on youtube

[drifting venture]

I do not really care about keyboards much

[void geyser]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjml-K-pV4E

[drifting venture]

I only had 2 keyboards my entire life, one membrane cheap one and the current shitty mechanical keyboard I have right now

[void geyser]

I've more than 100 + mechboards over the years

and currently own like 60

[drifting venture]

wow

[void geyser]

[drifting venture]

Yeah for me it's not that I want to get into the hobby I just need to make a tool that I cannot purchase for cheap or purchase at all

[void geyser]

watch the video and go from there

it's like being new to hiking and your first hike is mount everest

[drifting venture]

this is what we have ended up with

still working on the layout

[worldly garden]

lol side keys ?

what are those for

[drifting venture]

Idk how to explain, to use them, extra modifier keys, to use while working

I use only my left hand

[sage flicker]

That kinda gives me an idea for an elevated 75% with dual Steam Deck-esque touchpads where those keys are.

Whats a good set of wired earbuds that can fit in the pocket? I cant have wireless sometimes due to the nature of my job.

[crisp patrol]

bro just get a camera atp

[flat dock]

I need a camera

[flat dock]

ask #audio-tech but I'd think basically any of them, especially if they come with a case for easy carrying

The truthear gate could fit the bill

[void geyser]

I do

I have a dlsr

But iphone takes better videos

[crisp patrol]

use some sony mirrorless instead

or buy smth like an EX1R

optical zoom is a must for really good video

[worldly garden]

Flipear arion

[solar raptor]

ew sony

[solar raptor]

yea that make sense

iphone takes better video than alot of cameras iv used

[solar raptor]
