They're not supposed to - your strap - not the hook goes around the top hook bar and then down to the hook loops either between the cushions or under the seats on the side for the outside two positions.

I watched a few videos from Cuba one think i noticed there's barely to people around on all videos, kind of weird, could you explain that? are you promoting the Hotels to get more people down there? low people would make it hard for them to survive or a all exclusive to have full meal package.
@PTPhotoGearReviews12 күн бұрын
Hi Arnie, thx for conneccting and good observation. The reason it seems like there's few people around is likely two fold. 1. most reviewers like myself will shoot our footage early in the morning so as not to invade people's privacy putting them on camera when they may not want to be especially if we're shooting in the buffets etc. 2. I was in cuba for this video in off season so there will always be less people around and the rates are super cheap. I paid $750 dollars Canadian for my week of Nov 27 - Dec 5th, 2024 and trust me, this hotel was almost full. The reason I do the hotel videos is to promote my channel, I enjoy doing it and it keeps me from getting bored on a trip by getting out and exploring.There is one guy I know for a fact is paid by Sunwing to do hotel reviews and you may have seen his vids (Finding Fish). This is Sunwing's way of raising awareness and getting bums in seats. Hope this helps. Cheers

The e-ticket is needed in addition to your passport to enter the DR. It has nothing to do with any specific hotel/resort.

This stabilizer is best suited for making videos from your car, the lens pointed at an object or road other than your own car, But if you want to film the car itself or its occupants, then a fixed mounting and connection is better than a swinging stabilizer. The camera and the object then move in sync.

Great info! Always looking for nice resorts at a decent price! I have been to the Melia Beach and wellness resort which is the adult only counter part to the Melia Caribe you reviewed. It's right next door and is pretty much physically identical to the Caribe. So if anyone liked the Melia Caribe review but prefer an adult only property I highly recommend Melia Beach. I haven't stayed on the Caribe side so can't comment on it but the Adult side was excellent. Reviews for the adult side are better overall than Caribe not sure why that would be? The adults side is a little bit more $ but not a lot. Both have great beach gorgeous grounds awesome pool. I would say if you are staying at either if you like better quality cocktails/name brand alcohol get the level upgrade. If you just drink beer and blender drinks, rum and coke etc. I wouldn't bother getting the upgrade. The level gives you better room location, access to a separate ala carte restaurant for lunch/breakfast and dinner, access to a premium lounge with snacks and premium alcohol and access to a lovely roof top bar with premium alcohol. You also get a separate pool area and beach area. To me the only real benefit is the better drinks and the extra bar and restaurant. The level upgrade is fairly affordable compared to most other resort premium club upgrades. I didn't get it but It was about 200/week/person when I booked. A couple I met at the pool said they were able to upgrade at check-in for $250 USD total for the week for the two of them. If you book here I'd highly recommend a 'beachside' room as they are much closer to the pool/beach and the breakfast lunch buffet. Otherwise it can be a fairly long walk to the pool/beach area (although the trollys are fairly reliable and available). Its about 15-20 min walk from lobby to beach. The 'poolside' rooms (which are nowhere near the pool) are closer to the lobby which is where the dinner buffet and most of the ala cartes are. I'm not brave enough to try Cuba right now but I think Viva V Samana is my next trip! Thanks for your efforts!

First off superb video. 3:35 How much protection exactly? They sure seem protective and well constructed, but I've curious. If a crazy person with a hammer attacks it will it protect it? if someone pushes me to the ground? or I fall over, trip or crash on a mountain bike? It would be interesting to see a test with something in the insert, and some impact testing, of course not with your actual camera gear. But I watched a few videos on it, and it seems to be quire firm, and thick, so not as flimsy and soft as some, so far looks like the best option.
