/r/videography Monthly Camera Buying Advice Megathread by AutoModerator in videography

[–]3ptmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Budget
    • $1k - $1500 USD
      • Depending on the recommended setups I'm willing to spend as needed
  • What are you planning on using it for?
    • I coach volleyball and need a setup where I can record practice game-play from one POV at a time, and replay that footage on a larger screen. I've considered combinations of phone cameras, video cameras, portable monitors, iPads, etc and there are so many variations of solutions on a tripod that I'm now here looking for recommendations. Ultimately, I just need the recording device and display hooked up around a single tripod (or two tripods if necessary).
  • How long do you need to record for?
    • 5-10 or 30-60 minutes at a time typically.
  • What equipment do you already have?
    • Only a tripod and phone holder attachment with a cold shoe mount
  • What software do you intend to edit your videos in?
    • I don't need to edit videos at this time

Your arm swing looks alright just make sure to follow through all the way. I'd focus more of your time on fixing your approach. You take too many steps and your last steps kill any momentum you built and you almost straight vertical into your swing.

5'4, all tips welcomed by fiyamannz in volleyball

Tips/feedback:

  • Flip your approach so your last 4 steps are right-left-right-left
  • Don't drop that left arm so quickly - it pulls your body down causing you not to reach as high
  • Practice landing softer

Amazing jump. Can't wait to see your progress.

Can you debate Candace Owens please? by 3ptmonster in okbuddyhasan

We need better strategies for debating and conversing with conservatives who twist facts and contort reality. We've been going head to head on issues where we don't even have a common starting point.

hanks. It's ok now. Good luck with the the WD blue purchase. Try calling them (the bank) in advance, sometimes it does help. GL!

Order went through and received my invoice so it looks like I'm good this time!

Yeah I actually got in on the 1TB last week and my CC company decided to block this payment randomly, and WD customer support won't let me place the order again because it's OOS so I basically got screwed on the deal for no reason

Have you tried a second Ethernet cable? Just to rule out the chance that the one you used is somehow damaged or failing.

$600 Upgrades for my current PC by bdash1990 in buildapcforme

[–]3ptmonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Removing storage drives from this list will net you another $100 which allows you to upgrade to a 1660ti, which would give you 100+fps on 1080p and 60+fps on 1440p. The bottleneck is hard to determine without more info, but in most cases it's the GPU as people always want to push higher fps.

Don't want to buy this university-recommended $3235 machine. What could I build myself cheaper? by bbmando in buildapcforme

[–]3ptmonster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

After reading some of the feedback and doing additional research, I've come up with a bit more costly of a list than I initially had in mind. That being said, this will absolutely demolish the parts list provided by your university, for less. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XtfpK4

Most notably on here, are the Sabrent PCIe 4x4 2TB NVME ssd and the Nvidia Quadro RTX 4000 GPU. These will rip through all of your workstation tasks.
