I'm a disabled veteran learning new things along the way and sharing as I learn them all the while dealing with a body that, at times, just doesn't want to cooperate. I've found my passion in bird and wildlife photography and want to share that with everyone. I'll be taking you with me out into the wild and sharing my gear setups in the hope that I can inspire you and I can help you get the right gear to move you along in your passions.
A Little Tweak
Yes, it's true! Believe it or not, I finally got around to tweaking my home studio setup and actually filming a vlog! Check it out and let me know what you think.

Hi, may i know if the bag is unstable after removing the camera+100-400, as only half of the bag is filled?
I find that the bag sits upright rather well with or without anything in it. Although, I do have a bullet resistant backpack panel in the front compartment of mine so it makes it lean that way.
@@thedvsmonkey Sorry, I meant when the bagpack is being carried.
@@Bobbylilacaviation Yes, as long as you keep the straps connected it is perfectly fine.
@@thedvsmonkey thank you!
Looks and sounds awesome!! I have dealt with crap in the chest for a month myself, doesn’t help when you need to talk in a video!! 😂😂
That coughing was no joke. Being told it could last months was shocking . . . then having it actually go on for months was just awful!
Excited to see your new posts! I knew you’d come back to vlogging. 😉👉
I have seriously missed filming/editing/posting every day. Stupid having to work for a living really cramps my style!
@@thedvsmonkey HA! 😂
You put so much time and effort into that..I'm out filming in my messy garage, I'm such a hack..LOL...Looks great!
Ha, thanks! It's really a matter of procrastinating on other things that makes me do stuff like this. Ultimately, it's story that drives views! You have a compelling story to tell, I'm just blathering on about stupid stuff.
A new studio looks nice and sound great. Hope you don’t have a disastrous fourth quarter. If you need anything, let me know your friend Dave.
Thanks! 4th quarter is always chaos. I'm way ahead of the game since I've already hit for October and likely November and I've already gotten on the books for December as well.
now turn off the noise canceling on the hollyland, I never liked how it sounded on mine. studio looks great
I didn't even know I had it turned on! I had to look that up online to see how to turn it off. See, I'm out of practice.
@@thedvsmonkey I noticed it in all your videos but never mentioned it because I thought you did it on purpose. I find that any noise cancellation can cause robotic sounds in your voice so I just don’t use it.
@@yankeecowboy Well, I only use the Hollyland with the a6700. Every other device I use the DJI 2. But, now that I'm aware of the button that turns it on/off and the color of the led to let me know if it's on or not . . . I will keep it off.
Very cool, SUBSCRIBED!! That wind was demented but the osprey was just mesmerising - especially when they take off with a heavy fish - slow it down - the way they flap their wings to gain purchase on the air is poetry in motion! :)
Thank you! I have a feeling I'm going to be spending a lot of time there trying to perfect my tracking skills on these majestic hunters!
This is work in samsung s20 fe , i am form india ?
I wouldn't know. Since Samsung used different processors for different areas of the world, the only way you can be sure is to check with Samsung and DJI.
Great shots!
Thanks! I had a ton but tried to limit how many I posted.
Is it helping hicking or as general walking stick
Well, I don't use it like that, but, it is surely sturdy enough that I would imagine it could work for hiking. I would think it's too expensive and too heavy/cumbersome to be a long term solution just for hiking.
Finally an actual vlogger test without all dem camera terms that makes me dizzy lolol.
Thanks! I try to keep it real since it's just as annoying to me when all I can find is "influencers" shilling for their corporate overlords.
Fuck. You really seems wind up in this video. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, I hope to do so.
what can I say I think you found your calling those pics were incredible
Thanks! I'm learning to take my time, which is tough for me.
Nice pics
Thanks! I had to be selective since I had almost 300 to choose from just from the last week.
@@thedvsmonkey wow you’ve been busy…sounds like fun
@@hasenmyer I'm just thrilled I'm not trapped inside gag coughing any longer!
!👍💜
Thanks!
Hey, even short and sweet is better than nothing. 😉👉 I marvel at the diversity of birds in your area! 😃
The sad thing is that there are so many more but I'm incapable of capturing them. It's said that there are over 140 "known" species in Pleasure House Point alone! I've gotten less than 10 I think.
@@thedvsmonkey wow! Be cool if you could perch up in the trees and lie in wait. 😬
@@maricelamandujano109 I believe it's the little birds and they are just way too fast. That, plus since they are so small they compensate by going further into the trees for protection making it really difficult to get focus. But, I guess that's part of the journey.
Beautiful pics! 😀👍
Thank you! I wish I had more time to explore.
Hermosa
Indeed!
NICE!
Thanks!
Missed you! Glad you’re feeling better. Stay well! 📸🦅🦆🐦⬛🦋
Thanks! It's been awful for sure. I'm annoying myself coughing so much.
Great footage! loved the message
Awesome! Thanks!
Completely agree! Companies should be banned if they don’t release an Arca-Swiss plate with any new offerings. It stinks!! 💩
For the life of me, I can't understand how these companies don't understand that simple cross compatibility would get them so many more sales! I legitimately will not buy another Zhiyun product because of this!
I have always liked your work
Thanks!
video montage was a good idea. I have a family of red tail hawks on my property and turkeys, they will let me dam near pet them lol
I thought I'd switch things up all around so one day all I did was take video footage just so I could add video rather than stills to the video.
Good shots!
Thanks! I have so many but I don't want to overload.
patio looks great!
Thanks! How was the vacation?
@@thedvsmonkey it was great, I got to spend time with family and I sat in beach chair almost all day w/o a care in the world
@@hasenmyer Nice!
Always good to get out there and do what you love. Many of my videos are stupid, but I have a ball making them
I actually went for a walk this evening and "vlogged" and forgot how much I used to enjoy it!
Wow!! A BALD EAGLE!!! 🦅 Congratulations!🎉😆 Beautiful birds, beautiful pics. 🤗
Thanks! I'm still thrilled! Such a gorgeous creature!
@@thedvsmonkey Indeed. 🥲
bro manifested a damn eagle 🦅 legend
If only it were that easy!
gotta get out there brother!
I only have myself to blame! Forward and up!
How is it possible that your Samung phone recognizes an external microphone in the native camera app in the standard mode ? (as I can see at 2:30 you didn't use the pro-mode but the standard video mode)
I’m assuming that yours doesn’t allow you to . . . and that is very possible since these phones have different processors depending on where in the world you get them. You’d have to check the Samsung site to see which processor you have and if it’s capable of doing what you want it to do.
dude that truck is setup for overlanding now! sweet setup for sure
Thanks! Yeah, I noticed that it was looking awfully similar to most pics I see of people's overlanding vehicles.
@@thedvsmonkey hey nothing wrong with that! Also let me know what you think of the meta glasses,I liked mine but the portrait video was a deal breaker
@@yankeecowboy So far I’m just trying adjust the ear pieces to make them tolerable for longer than 5 minutes. Other than that, so far so good.
Dang man you been busy as heck…truck is looking NICE!
Thanks! I didn't even get into a lot of detail about everything, but yes, I've been crazy busy, plus back to being on the road every week. That's why I wanted everything on the truck to be done.
Gente tonta que no enseña como hizo el trabajo 😂
What's to show? I explained step by step how to do it.
I was recording with Galaxy S23 and DJI mics and it was perfect with two stereo tracks which I could edit separately. But now I bought S22 for myself (got it cheaper) but my recording had 2 tracks which were the same. Not real stereo :((. Maybe it can record but I need to change settings. If someone knows, please let me know.
Your results depend on so many things . . . where you are located in the world (different processors in the phone), which DJI mics you're using (they have so many now), how you're connecting, etc. Make sure your gear is all updated with the latest firmware, check the DJI site to ensure compatibility, and check your video editor to make sure you have everything set correctly there as well. Good luck!
I bought the Clear Skies filter for the Sony 14mm 1.8 GM a long time ago (which doesn't actually do anything as far as I can tell) but now I want to buy their ND filters for it. The Sony 14mm specific ND kit is €125 while the 'general' ND kit is €26... The latter also states it works with the Sony 14mm so would I be just stupid to buy the more expensive set? Seems like I can just buy the cheaper ones and they slide right into the tray which I installed after I bought the Clear Skies filter.
O wait the cheaper one is just 1 filter (they use a photo of all of them so I thought I would buy them all)
@@jeroenvdw I'm a fan of buying correctly once, rather than buying stupidly twice. But, I'm self-admittedly excessive. Good luck on your decision!
spectacular shots and video clips! I use monitor for photos because my old eyes can't see on the camera screen so I know it's heavy but worth using for photo and video. Great edit and good to see you posting again!
Thanks! I got a ton of photos and footage but I'm trying to keep these videos under control. It was great being back out there again!
@@thedvsmonkey you did a good job balancing everything.
@@yankeecowboy Good to know. Thanks!
Ooh fancy seeing you here! I just got a rode wireless go ii, and I'm curious if i can find an adapter like you have. Ive only seen one with a wire but I'd love to avoid that in favor of the receiver sitting right against the phone
Well, hello there! Unfortunately, you can't do what you want with that RWG II. There are other brands that have a setup that would do that but they have their drawbacks. I think I still have your number . . . I'll text you with an alternative fix.
Thanks here too. I was ready to send this back. Ifixit 64bits kit finally came in handy. Good mention on the dual haidu. I almost got that instead but figured i was never getting that lens so decided on the straight 14mm.
Right on!
Excelente bro🎉
Thank you!
That lens always blows my mind. Love the shots, too.
I've loved it since I first put it on the camera! Thanks!
nice!
Thanks!
Nice pics. 🙂👍
Thank you!
Hey monkey man (don’t know your name, I think it’s CJ but maybe I heard wrong 😬) I have a question about the Sony A6500. I watched a video on the pros and cons of shooting video with it. The guy said the screen was too dark and it doesn’t have a flip screen. I don’t recall but were you able to attach a separate screen to your A6500?
It is CJ and I didn't have the a6500 . . . i had the a6600, but, either way, you can connect an external monitor through the micro HDMI connector. Message me and I'll give you easier ways to reach me.
@@thedvsmonkey, um, how do I message you? 😬
@@maricelamandujano109 Ugh, all of these sites are so confusing. Just email at pix@thedvsmonkey.com and I'll link you.
I just started using something similar recently. Major game changer. Huge improvement.
It was certainly a good start for me but I've since built a contraption that is bolted into the wall studs and it holds a 12.9" iPad Pro.
you forgot to shown people how to clamp to the bed
That's because it doesn't clamp to the bed . . . the stand simply slides under the bed and the weight of the base technically holds it up.
Es dificil grabarlo en vuelo
It definitely is when the wind is blowing as hard as it was. Otherwise, I've improved in doing that over the years.
15 minute auto shut off,I was wondering what happened lol
Time flies when I'm not filming and the thought never crossed my mind to check the mic since I never had to before. I wish I could shut that off. I don't film enough to drain the battery but I most certainly have gaps in between recording clips and I'll constantly have this happen.
Btw, thanks and hope all is well. 😄
@@maricelamandujano109 You're welcome! And things are as good as they can be.
I’m an avid hunter of many years and the key is to sit quietly for a long time and the wildlife will come to you, stalking any pray is tough there to smart. You just need to sit idle for at least 20 minutes and you’ll start to hear shit around you again.
I know my impatience works against me. Plus, I do this for the exercise so just sitting there is counterintuitive.
@@thedvsmonkey just walk to the farthest spot and sit lol
LOL…I thought it was just me who goes through stuff like this….yiu need a camera person😅
It was just all around horrible today! I think even if I could afford a camera person I would still want to film myself. Usually I really enjoy it.
