I tried out the Arsenal 2 Pro for the first time yesterday on my Nikon D800. Had a few connectivity issues, but was able to work through. For whatever reason it will not capture images on the camera’s SD card, saves to my phone. That will need a deeper dive to figure out. [Edit] The in-camera card is so the camera functions, to save photos I need to mount a micro SD card in the Arsenal itself. Didn't see the covered slot hidden under the camera cord port. As for the images, underwhelming is the nicest thing I can say. I’m going to keep playing with it in hopes of not ending up feeling that I was a sucker for a slick ad campaign.
I shoot with a decade old Nikon D810 and my thinking was that instead of buying a new camera, I could just add newer features to my older camera with Arsenal. I haven't taken it out for a shakedown test yet but all of the vids out there are not too encouraging. I hope they offer firmware upgrades as we go along but for now, I just may be the arse in Arsenal for swallowing the hype!
I really thought A2 was going to be better it's not. You literally have to contact support to get the bugs worked out. They do listen but it takes time.
25 yr. photographer, been shooting manual since at least 2010, I thought the idea behind the product would be good for beginners but from all the reviews it's just a bunch of advertising hype.
It seam like arsenal helps you take lack luster photos and I certainly don’t need help with that. Every single one of your edited personal shots look 10 times better than the arsenal. Im struggling to find out what it even does.

Some of the "time-lapse" like features are understandable if one has an old camera that doesn't have these features, but i feel like the arsenal is simply a glorified aperture priority mode generator lol

Subbed for more photos of my home town. I miss Duluth SO MUCH.
Duluth misses you too, friend!
You definitely outsmarted the Arsenal.
Lol!

I absolutely love the d810! Workhorse of a camera even today with one of my favorite sensors of all time!

Deep color looks a bit dated, like an old hdr shot with clarity turned all the way up
