TUESDAY TIPS: Tv Setting

We've covered the Av setting in a previous blog post, so now it's time to go over the Tv setting. If you haven't read the Av post, it wouldn't hurt to check it out, because there are some basics there that aren't duplicated in this post. Tv is like Av in that it allows you... Continue Reading →

iPhone 17 Pro Max Review

I don’t generally update my phone every year, but last year I opted to do the AT&T Up Next Anytime thing for $10/month. I figured I might as well get my money’s worth. I did not do the Up Next Anytime thing this year, and I plan on going back to my usual two year... Continue Reading →

First Camping Trip of 2025

DJI Service Kudos

I got my first DJI drone back in 2016—a Phantom 3 Standard—and it was the perfect starter drone. I flew it all over the Coast Range in Oregon, random spots in Montana, and a few neighborhoods. In 2017, I upgraded to a Mavic, and I’m still flying it eight years later. I don’t use it... Continue Reading →
