what's up guys welcome back to the channel today it's very exciting because I actually leave for Computex in about 10 hours there's no there's no watch on here is this is kind of weird but yes it's super exciting there's a lot of stuff that I need to bring in particular all of my tech gear so all the things that I'm gonna be using to create produce and edit all the footage that you guys are going to be seeing in your inboxes later later on this week and so forth so there's a lot of stuff here I have it all strewn about on the table whoo we're just gonna go down the line and talk about everything that I'm bringing maybe at the end of the video you guys can let me know if there's anything I missed or if there's something that you might suggest that I bring on my way to LAX so okay let's let's go ahead and talk about it let's do it if you're gonna go halfway across the world and you're gonna be editing footage you're gonna need a gaming laptop or some kind of powerful laptop or computer but computers are big and I'm not bringing one you can see the go anywhere do anything PC is over there just chilling in the corner I was gonna bring him to copy text but I decided not to big too much and also if I brought that I would only have one connected monitor whereas with a laptop I can actually connect the G Sheik to 5:01 a right here and have a dual monitor setup which is really nice for editing so again this is the msi gs6 t ghost pro superfast got a core i7 skylake cpu in their mobile ship of course and a gtx 970m just a beast of a system battery life is total but hopefully I'll be able to jack in somewhere I've also got the the this HS one a super old pair of Corsair headphone it's actually a gaming headset my first gaming headset ever I'm just bringing it along for the ride because it's super comfortable and I don't care what happens to it if it gets lost or stolen it's a piece of crap now anyway no it's actually still fairly decent I'm sorry that's it I didn't mean it course you need a good Mouse you need a good Mouse if you have a good laptop otherwise what's the point you dick this is the GS I'm sorry big of G is 602 G 6:02 from Logitech wireless mouse double A batteries super good battery life even though they're not rechargeable ton of macro programmable buttons on there dpi adjustment super comfortable it's awesome it's a good Mouse Crysis 3 mousepad hell yeah I love just t-bag in profits face but Mouse alright what's happening external SSD 512 gig don't be fooled by the HyperX branding it's actually in a Teta SP 900 in here 512 gigs you got all my assets in it's awesome also got this little little guy Kingston DataTraveler USB 3.0 flash drive I don't know what I keep on here cuz it's only 32 gigs but it's nice to have a USB Drive I guess got some battery packs here battery packs are always essential for a trip like this especially if you're gonna be using your mobile devices a lot like I am you know tweeting and posting the social media and stuff while I'm at Computex it's nice to have backup power so we've got this MSI one history it's just a rebrand it's om actually but ten thousand four hundred milliamps definitely gives you some solid some solid charge time charge capacity however it is only a one amp port I believe it charges pretty slowly that's why I'm also bringing along this role as well one that's 13,000 milliamps I've never fully drained this on a single trip it's just a beast of a freakin power brick it's got a flashlight in there it's not funny I've never needed the flashlight but maybe I will this trip who knows it's actually got two amp port as well as a one amp port so me and wifey sauce could both use this at the same time if we wanted to just a tag team it and then we've got the G chic monitor coming back to this this is the two-five-zero one a this thing is just absolutely beautiful to have when you're on going to an event like Computex where you want to edit so gonna be able to do that dual monitor setup again this is IPS has really good color production not great for gaming because you know it's it's just it's it's IPs of the response time is really slow and get some trailing and stuff but for color correction and all things productivity it's a fantastic piece of hardware it's 15.6 inches I believe that comes with all the appropriate cables actually comes with HDMI a lot of these external portable monitors don't have HDMI connections they use like USB for therefore their power and further their video transfer or VGA this is 1920 by 1080 and it does have a native HDMI connection so excellent stuff we've also got this this is my Nexus 7 tablet more for leisure than it is for productivity it's also got a nice case on there but this thing is awesome I love this thing when I'm traveling especially when I'm on the plane it's great for watching movies or playing mobile games and things like that again very simple leisure stuff usually I watch movies on it especially I've got this little little connector here is a headphone splitter that I'll I'll share with wifey sauce if we ever want to watch a movie at the same time with the laptop or with the tablet we can do that we've also got a Soundlink mini this is from Bose and Bose is you know they're pretty overpriced at times but I got this one for free I think I got this at the Verizon store when I picked up my samsung galaxy s6 a while back they were just handed these things out like hotcakes so I was like yeah sure I'll take one it's just a mini bluetooth speaker it actually sounds really good despite you know how overpriced it may be it fills a room quite decently so if you know we want a pregame at the air B&B or something before we go to some industry party we can bump some tunes in the meantime and this is the the meat and potatoes guy this is the meat and potatoes here I've got the gh4 lumix from panasonic this is an excellent body because it's actually quite small for a DSLR body so it keeps it nice and portable however my lens is certainly not as the Sigma 13 I'm sorry 18 to 35 millimeter lens but it's just a beautiful lens it's very versatile and speaking of which the meta bones speed booster adapter that I have in here is an active adapter that not only converts an EF lens or sub mix of Nghia fliends supported by a Micro Four Thirds body like the Lumix gh4 but it also adds a full stop of aperture so does really well in low-light situations which is great for Computex because a lot of these vendors have you know LEDs on their products they want to show off so they purposely dimmed the lights down low so that you know the colors can pop more and it can get really difficult to try to shoot in that environment so having the speed booster on there is really nice it's also an active adapter so you can adjust the aperture straight from the camera body which a passive adapter will not allow you to do it also adds some magnification properties to the lens so that you get more of a wider field of view in a more cinematic look to all your shots it's a really great piece of hardware I've also got the tascam dr-40 or actually before this I've got a cage I've got the D cage from D focus systems this is what the the Swiss cheese looking crap that's all around the sides of my my body here and this thing is just an excellent piece of hardware it allows you to attach things like a handle if you guys have a DSLR and you guys are going on events buy a frickin handle buy a cage and buy a handle because I swear to god it's the best investment I've ever made for for this particular setup it's just amazing how much of a difference it makes to have something to grab on to and she said and just be able to roam around freely with E so that's really nice those holes that you're seeing those are all threads so either either 1/4 inch or 3/8 inch threads the tube and standards for mounting camera to things so I've got my tascam dr-40 PCM recorder it's got some XLR inputs which is really nice and this is gonna be wired from the from my son Heiser mkh 416 microphone here amazing shotgun microphone very directional amazing pickup pattern and just utmost clarity so this is gonna be wired this is a XLR going into my dr 40 and then from the dr for you that's going straight into the microphone port on my GH 4 so that way i can just record everything at the same time don't have to do any kind of audio/video syncing in Premiere Pro and I'm editing the footage it's gonna save me a lot of time and it's gonna sound and look really good while it does it so really happy about that setup almost forgot about my 256 gig PNY SD cards there hell yeah highest-rated class and all that sort of thing we've also got a monopod now this is the Manfrotto 290 and this is a cheapy little monopod that's probably like 60 70 bucks and I actually have another one on the way I actually got the same one that Paul did I bought it last night or yesterday during awesome hardware right before the show started because I really liked his monopod it's the one that's got like three legs and it's a self-standing monopod so you can kind of just leave it there even with the camera on and mount it and everything it'll just stand in place which I really like so I don't know if it's gonna get here in time I my flight leaves at 12:50 a.m. later tonight so I have to be out of here by around 7:30 or so to get through customs and whatnot on time so we'll see we'll see it's a race against the clock whether or not I get the upgraded monopod but if not this one will do the job I'm also got just a few other accessories here so pair of earbuds these are nice to have on a plane if you just want to jack into the in-flight entertainment you usually do need a 3.5 millimeter jack to do that however if I'm going to be connecting to my tablet or my laptop especially when I'm gaming or whatever watching movies I like to have a pair of wireless headphones so these are the sound Pete's q7 why I believe and these are just really cheap II earbuds but they work really well they go behind your the cable goes behind your neck so you don't have to deal with you know any kind of a cable in front of you like you like you would with a standard pair of earbuds they sound really good for the price again they're they're not too high-end or whatever but they do the job and they've got actual volume adjustment on the side there which is nice to see and finally I've got an Ethernet cable cat6 cable just you know connecting to whatever available ports there might be at the air B&B we're staying at so that's it those are all the things guys let me know if I forgot anything what do you think what do you think of my setup am i like forgetting something cuz you know always in the past when I'm traveling I always know that I'm going to forget like one important thing and it never fails I always forget like one thing Dan that's what it was this time so maybe now that I'm asking you guys you can just make sure that you know I've got my whole checklist figured out of course I will be bringing like backup batteries for the camera and you know the PCM recorder and all that sort of thing you know charging cables and whatnot for my phone I didn't want to really show that here because it's not really that important but if there's anything else crucial that I'm missing here oh oh I almost forgot this haha see this good this was gonna be that thing this was almost the thing that I forgot to bring on this trip this is just a USB three card reader from tech republic not super important that I bring it because there is a card reader built into the laptop here however you never know what if it dies whatever it dies what I'm gonna do then what I'm going to do I'm screwed but yeah that's pretty much gonna do for now guys you can tell them a little bit frantic right now because I've got so much to do before I leave in just a few hours here so thank you very much for watching be sure to LIKE the video if you enjoyed it and also let me know what you want to see Computex really quick so if you want to see you want to see video cards are you only care about motherboards you want to just walk up to booth babes and give them a shitty pick-up lines I don't know what do you want to see you copy text cuz I'm pretty flexible guys so let me know in the comments thank you all so much for watching stay tuned for more tech stuff come on that you're really soon and I will see you all in the next video
