I AM | UNBOXED - D500

turboBB

Just had to do it cuz I know how much we all "LOVE" unboxing vids...

Kidding aside I also cover:
- 3rd party EN-EL15's
- 3rd party lenses (Sigma C 17-70 | Tamron 24-70 (A007) & Tamron 70-200 (A009)
- screen size and protector
- shutter and mirror slap sounds comparo (vs. D7100 | D600 | D750)

I'd like to do a low-light High ISO comparo vid but need some advice on how to scale everything properly. Please lmk if you have suggestions on how to properly size the videos so they are meaningfully comparable.

Cheers,
Tim

I think unboxing videos are the most boring in the world...IMHO

In general I'd agree (especially for a straight up unboxing with nothing else covered) but sometimes there are useful nuggets of info to be had.

Useful to know the 3rd party battery rejection system has been tightened
