Guess it's time to revive this thread. Back in the spring I purchased a couple of strip boxes. Unfortunately I chose the wrong size.

Most likely will put them put for sale locally since shipping would take a hit.

Adorama has the Glow 12" x 56" strip boxes on sale so I purchased two. Their size will definitely be better for my needs.

They should provide some nice rim lighting.

Just ordered a used AF-P DX 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens from KEH...E+ condition, $65.00. This is a replacement for an identical lens that was part of a bundle of lenses and a D5600 body that I sold a while ago to help fund a D7500 body.

After dropping and damaging my old school 80-200 2.8, decided to upgrade to a modern lens. Lol picked up a Tamron 70-200 2.8 G2 for $100 off with free UV filter and Tamron Tap In Console. So far loving the lens.

Still being forced down the lighter gear road, if Nikon had ever brought out the DL 24-500 it would have been my choice, as they didn't i opted for the Sony RX10 MK4 1 inch sensor so its got a FOV out to 600mm

I hear ya Mike. My RA in my neck is pushing me to do the same. I
was looking at those RX10's as well. And they sound fantastic. But the price point stung just a tad. I can get a A7 II with the 28-70 lenses. For just under a grand. Which I'm really thinking about doing.

Mike, congrats on the new Sony. I looked at the Sony when I decided I wanted a P&S zoom camera but I choked on the price. I got a Panasonic FZ1000 II instead. It's been a nice complement to my DSLR and mirrorless gear. If, OTOH, I was only going to have a single, all-in-one camera, the RX10 IV would be at the top of my list. Have fun with yours...looking forward to seeing some pictures.
