All Things Joey
When we visited the Mohonk Mountain House earlier this month, we rented a house in New Paltz so we could bring the dog (yes we rented a room to get access to the resort and a house).
The house was really nice, as was the down town area of New Paltz. I highly recommend the area and supporting the local businesses.
Recommendations:
My family visited the Mohonk Mountain House in early July. We enjoyed the hiking trails, the food, and the overall vibe of being in the mountains for a few days.
This video covers a hike up to the skytop tower and shows off the recently updated rooms at the resort.
Additional Mohonk Videos (From the Past):
The Sony ZV-1 is a great little camera. But there are some ergonomic issue that arise due to its size.
One of my biggest gripes was the placement of the tripod mounting area so close to the battery door forcing you to remove a tripod or mounting plate if you need to get access to the battery.
But SmallRig has a solution that not only addresses the access issue but gives you a better grip without dramatically increasing the size.
This is an absolute game changer!
I recently watched a video on Sony Alpha Universe about mounting cameras inside your car and thought “that would be cool”.
I went out and purchased a SmallRig suction mount for my car window and started testing it for shaking, stability, and any other problems.
During one of my tests, my wife questioned if having the camera on the window was legal… and come to find out… it wasn’t. And it isn’t legal in 43 other states.
So I had to find an alternative. Check out my testing!
I recently found myself traveling for business (again) and didn’t have a great experience at a hotel.
Sometimes you just need to roll with punches and get over minor grime issues when traveling, I just thought it was a funny story.
