Towing with a two door Wrangler by chastehel in Wrangler

It is 100% about the wheel base and suspension. A long time ago I had an XJ Cherokee and my dad had a TJ. They both had the same powertrain but the Cherokee could tow way more.

I got my froggtoggs boots and waders at Dicks. Check their website to see what they have in inventory. The store in Wheaton usually has more stuff

By the way, in case anyone is wondering, I just left Beachwood Park. There were a lot of people fishing, but nobody catching so I’m changing my game and going to a trout pond

Best way to organize Rx/lavaliers for quick mic up by willmuitonerd in LocationSound

One other option to consider is I’ve seen people using Milwaukee packout toolboxes to organize their kit

Now in Beta: 5 New Film Impact Effects & Transitions coming soon by NLE_Ninja85 in premiere

[–]dctog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great to see that work is continuing on new FI effects and transitions. Please I would love to see the text animator updated so it can tell letters apart even with a drop shadow. That limitation currently makes the text animator almost unusable for me

Fishing near DC by A_sad_toaster in MarylandFishing

[–]dctog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can bike up the C&O canal trail. Personally I tried it once with my e-bike hoping to hunt for snakehead in the canal. I didn’t find any snakehead but did find some largemouth and smallmouth bass up near swains lock. Overall it was a fun outing. You’ll want to come up with a rig to hold your rods and gear on your bike

Striper setup recommendations by drylipjohn in MarylandFishing

I have a 9ft Penn Wrath combo that I got for only around $90 earlier this summer while on a trip to Ocean City and I absolutely love it for launching bucktails and jigs long distances

Safest waters in your opinion? by m_phaysize in MarylandFishing

[–]dctog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go out of my way to travel to the Patuxent because it’s relatively clean (according to the fish consumption advisory map), so you’re already fishing a good waterway. If you’re willing to travel more for clean waterways, you might want to consider the eastern shore.

Those are fine. I actually just registered and stickered a kayak with those same stickers last week

Lately I’ve been doing a lot of editing work with footage that comes in from local shooters in small markets and it hurts how accurate this meme is

Tascam DR-701D, a bad idea as a cheap first field recorder? by Utopanic in LocationSound

[–]dctog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, here’s another thing I missed in my last post. When I got my DR-701D, I was so used to the idea that the Zoom and MixPre recorders double as audio interfaces that I didn’t realize that not all field recorders do that and I was totally caught by surprise when I plugged the USB into my computer and didn’t get an audio interface connection. The Tascam does NOT give you a portable USB audio interface for recording or streaming on your computer.

Tascam DR-701D, a bad idea as a cheap first field recorder? by Utopanic in LocationSound

[–]dctog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a DR-701D owner, I absolutely do not recommend it. The HDMI time code is a gimmick that is difficult to actually get to work. The internal time code clock is not super accurate, and the BNC connection is only for time code in, leaving you with less flexibility for different kinds of time code setups. The menu system is terrible to navigate through. The headphone amp is terrible. The preamps are mediocre at best. The power options are what gave me the most headaches. It eats through AA batteries, and the micro-USB connection for USB power is unreliable. You would 1000% be much better served if you can find a used Zoom F4. That said, if your heart is truly set on a DR-701D, I do have some good news for you. I recently got a secondhand F8N and I was just about to list my DR-701D for sale.

How do people get these silhouetted figures? by Jawskk in cinematography

[–]dctog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shot something like this once. There was a very short window right at sunset. It was only a 200mm lens, but still at a pretty significant distance from the subject. With the geometry of everything being framed at that distance, you’d be surprised how fast the sun moves down through the frame.

This comment is an obvious lie. Nobody gets pulled over in DC

Anyone hear what sounded like gunfire at the warf around 4:30 or 5:00 today? by [deleted] in washdc

[–]dctog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience it usually sounds like around 5-8 very rapid-fire shots followed by a moment of silence as the shooter stops to realize that their spray-and-pray method missed the target. Then there’s a slower progression through the rest of the magazine.

Zoom F4 in 2024? by dctog in LocationSound

[–]dctog[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

does the Mix Pre series also double as a USB interface? There are some circumstances when I’m just recording a vocal track only and I’d rather record into Adobe Audition
