Youtube daily report Oct 18 2018

Hi, this is JP Morgan and this is Kenneth Merril. Today on The Slanted Lens

We're gonna take a look at four different sensor sizes and see how they compare with one another

Thanks to our sponsor Borrow lenses for shipping out all of these

Amazing cameras and lenses us the we could try them out provide this test for you

They're a great resource for finding gear that you don't necessarily have a home

It's a great place to check out a different sensor size or the sensor size of your choice

Be able to have the equipment you need when you need it and then send it back and not have to buy it borrow lenses

Are you ready to make money in video?

We're ready to teach you how there's more demand than ever for video content and everyone

You know is probably looking for someone to do it for them. We've got a great video basic download for you

They'll help get you start on that road and help you make money in video

So go to the slanted lens comm and purchase your download today first

We have a hostile out of x1d, which is a medium format sensor

It's the largest digital sensor on the market right now. Then we have the full frame camera the nascent

Then we go to 70 which is an aps-c sensor

Which is that crop sensor size and last of all micro four-thirds with that Panasonic. Gh4?

We won't look at these four different sensor sizes and just see how they compare with each other with regards to vent depth of field

with regards to image quality grain structure how much data is really coming through versus

artifacting

Let's take a look and see what they look like. So let's get started. See how they compare

So we just got back from the beach we had five cameras five cameras four cameras, well, we had a beach yesterday as well

Yeah, three of us hauling stuff around the sand. Of course the waves are coming in and we got stand allows for a couple cameras

They're flying out like people walking like going wow, he's got too many cameras. Can I take one?

No, you can't take one

Okay, so we're gonna quickly go to the focus that we just hear and just starting at three point two

Which was the the smallest aperture for the Hasselblad your background falls away. Yes. It's a pretty - super super quick

I mean, it feels like less than a 2.8 on full frame

Yeah, you know

It feels like a very shallow depth of field very show

If you look at the gh 5 and of course this a which is a little overexposed, which is unfortunate

But the gh 5 is InFocus all the way down the California coast man. Yeah, it's crazy

I did not expect that to be so dramatically, but if you look at the

7d you're good of the sony. Yeah we go

The sony I feel like the difference between the 7d and the sony is probably the least between all of them

You know, yes like the Hasselblad to the Sony still feels kind of dramatic the 7d

But then there's something to the 7d not as much. Yeah, you're absolutely right

So when we start to go to f4, I mean, it doesn't change that drastically we go to five six

Which is kind of optimal here to shoot there's a 7d

Again, you say the 7d is looking very similar to the Sony

but again that Hasselblad at five six the background is still

Considerably more out of focus than the Sony what I like about this is that you can shoot at your lenses optimal

Aperture in terms of sharpness and performance and still have a really shallow depth of field. You care on the hospital on the house

Absolutely. Nice. Yeah, I mean that you're absolutely right. I mean you're at the optimal sharpness on that lens and

It's and you have a nice falling out of focus in the background

whereas it's not the same on the

On the sony of the sony of five six here and a sony just not seen as much you know, yeah

You're seeing more of the background. It's not quite as yeah, you know, but if we jump up to say like f11

f11 on the the GH five

Everything is in focus down there. I'm, it's the focus all the way down south

America, I can see chile right over there in the corner

So look at this is the hospital f11

I mean we have to go all the way to 32 for the Hasselblad to finally be in focus on the rock I was

Even at f-22 that large rock behind her is still a little bit. There's 20

Bit but look at the g h5 would have 22

everything's in focus people all the way back to f-16 which was the most we get on the

The lens we had it was only sony

So the question becomes here and I think what are the stop differences

So like how do you match the depth of field from camera to camera?

So we kind of came up with this at the panasonic. Gh4

3.2 looks very similar to the sony a7r 3 at 8.0 looks very similar to the can of seventy at five six

Which looks very similar to the hostile at static f-16 so yeah

You're looking at more than a four stop difference in terms of achieving the same depth of field for the cameras. Yeah across the spectrum

So what's interesting about that is the reality is that?

The Hasselblad can't give you the depth

Of focus that the GH 5 can give you right but the gh 5 can't give you the shallow depth of field at the Hasselblad

Can give you the thought that comes to my mind then is sure the hospital odd super high quality large sensor

But is it it's not as flexible as say maybe a full-frame sensor

Because to my mind the full-frame sensor can achieve very deep depth of field

It can also achieve very shallow depth of field if you open it up to 1.2 or something like that

So how does the how does a shallow depth of field compare when it's wide open versus the hospital that's wide open?

Let's take a look at that

Okay, so here are each of these with the as wide open as the lenses that we have so which we're all very fast

They look for the format

we have

first of all the panasonic h5 1.7

I mean it is achieving a shallow depth of field here that that's a that's a workable portrait

And I think for headshots and stuff you might want to be able to go more shallow than that

But that's totally workable then that you have the 7d and that's of course a lot shallower

Larger, even though it's pretty much the same aperture

And then the step-up is a 7r3 in holy cow. Look at that 1.2

It is in backgrounds just gone

So a lot of folk very elated focused very beautiful look, but the Hasselblad of the three point to it again

You have more detail in the background. It's not as not as out of my point. It's not a shallow of a depth of field

So even at three at three point to the Hasselblad is not as shallow as a sony at one point - yeah, exactly

So again, well that makes sense. The Hasselblad struggles on giving you depth. Mm-hmm

The GH five gives you depth but struggles giving you shallow

so the a7 r3 and the 7d are kind of more in the middle and they're giving you a little bit on both sides and

It looks like the a7 r3 is really giving you more more on each other on you-jin

And which really moves us to the next side and that is it

The a7 r3 is a 42 megapixel camera, right? And the Hasselblad is a 50

Yeah, so edges it out a little bit it edged out a little bit

But when you go to blow those up when we looked at blowing them up at 300dpi

the hospital I will give you the same with 26 inches and

The a7 three only gives you like 17 inches high with the Hasselblad will give you like 22 inches

This is really kind of made me realize that I think a full-frame camera is the most flexible tool

Yes, because you can shoot at your f-22 and you have everything in focus

You can shoot a year at one point - and you have nothing in focus. So what's interesting then is the

the a7 3

It becomes a compromise in another way in that. It's a little lower megapixel, right you're

Gonna blow it up as much but you still have that larger sensor, which is gonna give you the nice depth of field

so it's a come from it's a it's in between the 7d and the a7 are three is looking at the size of

sensor and sensor quality

Man what we could test to somebody every day

I'm having a hard time as a thinking as a landscape photographer why you'd be using that large sensor for focus issues

but we had it have talked to landscape person that probably say well it's because this shit Mo's all

But we took a landscape photo we did let's look at that

All right, so here's this was really late in the day I mean sun's down yeah, it's very very dark very dark

So there's there's a good amount of depth of field on all the cameras. Obviously the Hasselblad would be the least

Looking at the images. I can definitely see where the smaller pixel smaller sensor size on the jh5 stands out like it's gritty

It's grainy and it just feels a little more

Less detailed the 70s. Okay this a seven or three and the hospital have both look real

I mean they both kind of look the same to me almost in terms of noise structure and how the image looks okay

So let's look at this is all shot at 1600 ISO. They're all hurtin

Some of these are really greedy that you look at the jh5 and the 7d

I mean the 7d is actually grittier than the GH five to mine looks terrible. Yeah

But the Hasselblad is really it's pretty smooth for

1600 and and this is where the a7

Actually does kind of fall by. Oh, yeah, and that's always how it is with the Sony's they don't perform

Well when you start pushing the ISO

To go back to the question to start this all just sensor size matter. Yes

it does to a certain extent if you want a high-performing camera, I

Can't recommend the micro four-thirds. I don't even know if I can recommend the

See honestly when you surprise me because I've always thought. Meh aps-c, you know, super 35 doesn't matter

The full-frame is definitely the sweet spot. Mm-hmm. I don't see a huge improvement

Based on the few things we shot with the medium format, but that's just me. You know, I agree with you

It's really not enough to make it worth it to me. Yeah, and your lenses are more money

Everything's more my either don't just step up with a camera you step up with a whole system

Again, that full-frame sensor seems to be a sweet spot

Gives you great depth of field control be able to get things out of focus

You know get things in focus gives you a really decent image size on the a7 r3, you know

That full-frame be able to blow that up. So there you have it does sensor size matter

Well, maybe not quite in the way that you might have. Thought. So keep those cameras rolling and keep on clicking

If you liked our lesson you today we'd love it

If you'd follow us here on YouTube

And like us follow us do all those kinds of things to join the slam lens community and be sure to leave very angry comments

In this YouTube video and tell us all the things we did wrong. We did a lot of things wrong

So there'll be long comments. I'm sure there'll be lots of things. You'll be able to say what were you guys thinking?

But pick up some tests

There are some exciting cameras that are coming out maybe some cameras that we've missed in the past so pictures some tests

Maybe we'll take them into consideration and using the next couple months. Absolutely

So make sure you follow your own slant lens that really helps us out and leave a comment. We love that

So does size matter when it comes to sensors well

Maybe not quite in the way. You might have thought so keep those cameras rolling and keep on clicking

The Making Of Young Thug & Elton John's "High" With Stelios | Deconstructed - Duration: 6:41.

I read a Noisey interview where Elton was expressing his love for Young Thug.

As soon as I read that I was like, "This is amazing."

These two souls need to be brought together.

I literally like read every Elton John song.

When he says, "I'm gonna be high."

"I'm a Rocket Man."

I thought that when Young Thug heard that, he would just know where to go with it.

I reached out to Young Thug's A&R, Geoff Ogunlesi.

So in early 2016, I sent him an email and I was like, "Hey can we get Young Thug and

Elton in a room and I'll make a song?"

He thought it would be probably difficult to corral them in one spot.

He was like, "Why don't you try to sample something?"

When I first heard the piano under Elton, I was really excited because I had found different

chords that worked with his melody.

And I got that feeling.

I was like, "Oh, it really does feel like you're flying."

So here's the "Rocket Man" a capella played at normal speed here.

When I first tried to sample this, I did the obvious thing and tried to use the whole chorus

and I made just a garbage beat.

So, I knew I had to just get a little more creative with how I did it.

Read all the lyrics again.

Saw "And I'm gonna be high."

Let's just bring "Rocket Man" to it.

So yeah, I slowed it down using Transpose, warped it, put it back in the correct key.

So I brought the first part of his phrase, made it a lot faster.

And then made "high" shorter.

The way I got the "high" to just feel like one continuous high, and I use this strategy

a lot.

It's where you take the sample, this part of the sample is just a reversed version of it.

At the time I really just didn't have like crazy stuff.

It's Decimort Version 1 which is like a bit crusher.

I have the classic Valhalla, then I have FabFilter.

It's kind of like a dub delay.

And then on top of that I put another Valhalla to make it super spacey.

Yeah so the sample is a little bit degraded by being so stretched and manipulated, but

when you put on all the reverb, it kind of hides that.

Putting all the effects on it and creating the song title, "High", is what helped

bring it into Thug's world.

So I was just still in my apartment, and the only thing I had was like, a guitar, a Scarlett

Interface, and like a small MIDI keyboard.

So I was like this needs live piano.

I've seen so many greats recordings of people playing in Rubber Tracks.

I found this very like, naturalistic piano.

What he's playing here is in a higher key but just super super common pop chords.

The piano recording was five semitones higher so I just brought it down to B flat major

just using Ableton Transpose.

Because I couldn't record a live piano, the pianos just weren't long enough to actually

fit into the rhythm.

So in the same way that I took the Elton track and reversed his voice, I did the same thing

with the piano.

After I had this part down, I was like alright so I need to add some rhythm to the track

for the drop.

The first thing was just making sure the piano aligned with the vocals, and then moved on

to the drums.

You can make your version of trap drums stand out.

Maybe one way to switch it up is just put in one sound that you're not used to hearing

with this rhythm.

For this track the sound was this Tom.

The way I got that was using Sausage Fattener at maximum fatness.

The other more unique sound in here is this perc.

That's just sidechained to the kick to give it more of a dipping feeling whenever the

kick hits.

The one different feeling about the hats is that it's two different hats.

Both panned left and right.

And then together.

So then there are two 808s that are in it.

There's this 808 that's made from Nicky Romero plug-in.

That has a lot of the bottom end, so I found a Southside 808 and just put that under it

as well.

So here's the other 808.

Having two 808s can be risky 'cause it can sound kind of muddy.

Honestly I thought Alex Tumay, the engineer, would just know what to do and how to EQ it

and make it sound nice.

And I thought that there was room for one more warm, textured kind of sound.

So I did this bass.

And this only happens twice in the song, but it's just one little extra moment.

It sits against that blown-out Tom sound and it breaks up the piano.

So this is what it all sounds like together.

The mission was to bring Thug into Elton's world and vice versa.

I knew it would cause a reaction in some way.

But his style has always been super flamboyant and expressive and exciting and Elton has

had the same thing.

I thought it would a super positive thing to just see them together and see two icons

embrace each other.

If you look at the gh 5 and of course this a which is a little overexposed, which is unfortunate

3.2 looks very similar to the sony a7r 3 at 8.0 looks very similar to the can of seventy at five six

Which looks very similar to the hostile at static f-16 so yeah

You're looking at more than a four stop difference in terms of achieving the same depth of field for the cameras. Yeah across the spectrum

So what's interesting about that is the reality is that?

The Hasselblad can't give you the depth

Of focus that the GH 5 can give you right but the gh 5 can't give you the shallow depth of field at the Hasselblad

You have more detail in the background. It's not as not as out of my point. It's not a shallow of a depth of field

I mean the 7d is actually grittier than the GH five to mine looks terrible. Yeah

But the Hasselblad is really it's pretty smooth for

1600 and and this is where the a7

Actually does kind of fall by. Oh, yeah, and that's always how it is with the Sony's they don't perform

Well when you start pushing the ISO

To go back to the question to start this all just sensor size matter. Yes

it does to a certain extent if you want a high-performing camera, I

Can't recommend the micro four-thirds. I don't even know if I can recommend the

it's white I paid $25 for 12 pencils and I want to test these out kind of side by

side to see are these worth it isn't worth it to pay 25 big ones in

comparison I was at the grocery store and I noticed they were selling a pack

of pencils like 10 or 12 for a dollar 78 so that's a pretty big price difference

and I kind of want to know will these live up to the hype I've heard so much

about these it feels like I've been seeing these everywhere lately so I

wanted to try them out for myself and for you guys so we're gonna do some

comparison tests and see how these measure up now according to the company

website these pencils were originally made back in the 1930s and they were

very popular among like artists musicians her tunas so they were

discontinued and then people wanted to bring them back so they did there are

three different types of Palomino black wings there is the black wing 602 which

is the firmest of the graphite so it's apparently good for like writing and

everyday users the original black wing is the black pencil with the gold

imprint and white eraser and that one is being marketed towards artists and

musicians it's got I guess a softer graphite and then the one I got is the

black winged pearl and that's white with a white eraser and it's sort of a medium

firmness I chose the pearl version because it was sort of in-between I

wasn't exactly sure what I needed and I probably won't be needed to erase a lot

of things so I didn't want to go for the 602 because that is apparently the

hardest pencil they have they also have some really cool special editions they

have like a subscription glove and you can subscribe to get

special limited-edition pencils every month and some of those designs I'm

gonna show them on the website they look really cool if I get really into drawing

and find I need these types of supplies a lot I would actually think about the

subscription because they were really cool and it seems like that's the only

way you can get the special editions they seem to sell out very quickly the

subscription does seem a little pricey but if you're like really geeky about

art supplies and drawing supplies that might be for you alright so let's get

into the test I'm going to try to just use it as a writing implement and I'm

going to divide this is just like random copy paper so I'm gonna divide it kind

of in half maybe I'll try to draw some basic shapes also try to do a little

shady and see if I notice a difference I didn't really know there were this many

types of pencils so and yes I was totally drawn in by the packaging and

the cult classic status I want to be honest with you I was like those look

really cool and I totally bought into it so we're gonna see if that lives up to

the hype okay so everything on this side is gonna be drawing with the free pencil

everything on the other side is gonna be drawing with the black wing okay so

let's try to draw no disclaimer I am definitely not a professional artist so

I'm not even sure if I'm gonna try um what should we draw first I'm gonna try

to draw a pencil I'm not that good at drawing I did take some art classes in

school this feels very smooth to draw so that's kind of nice okay so we've got

this pencil it does seem very soft and I didn't really notice any difference in

sharpening these two pencils like didn't notice anything out of the ordinary okay

so and I'm also gonna use this volvo installation booklet just to cover up

the pencil so I don't smudge it that's a problem with being a lefty is that your

hand always has crap on the bottom of it okay so let's try to draw a pencil over

here and then we will write this pencil definitely seems harder like it's a

darker mark for sure it makes darker marks

and it does seem a little more like it's more firm like I guess that's what I

would say I think there's definitely going to be a difference when I start to

shade this okay yeah I mean it looks fairly similar but that this one the

black-winged definitely felt a little more like soft to to draw with

all right so let's try to write out some phrases I'm gonna draw my name in fancy

script that I've been learning I've been trying to work on my hand lettering but

I noticed some some of my letters just said like a weird a like my letters

don't all go at the same angle so I may need some gridlines okay so that's my

name with the black wing and now we'll do my name with the free pencil and yes

this does say you can never have too much fabric on the pencil I knew I had

one of these free ones around somewhere okay you know I gotta say though the

black one definitely feels a little bit smoother to write with okay I don't know

it feels more fun this one kind of drags more and I feel more resistance on the

paper I don't know if that's like a placebo effect or not but that's

something that I definitely notice I mean it looks fairly similar I would say

though this pencil when I'm doing the letters it seems a little more like

crisp the I'm gonna the lettering looks more crisp I don't know anyways let's

try to do some shading okay so I'm gonna try to change the pressure and I'll go

like from light pressure so this is like me barely putting any pressure on there

okay this is sort of and I'll just sort of increase the pressure that I'm making

and see how that looks I mean this shades really well I can

definitely see why artists like this you can definitely get a lot of range with

how light and dark your strokes are let me see if I can get it like super dark I

don't know that seems to be about as dark as I can get and I don't want to

like mash up the paper or anything that wouldn't be great either okay all right

let's try it with the free pen so okay so I noticed a difference

immediately with this pencil I don't know if you guys can see this but

there's definitely difference immediately it this one does not do

shading as well like it doesn't blend as nice as the other one and it's harder to

do shading with this one for sure like this one yeah I don't know let me

try this again you know what yeah I I it's really hard to get light strokes

and have them blend it like it looks like the lines I'm making with the

strokes look very harsh when I'm increasing pressure it definitely gets a

little bit better but when I was trying to do it like super light it like wasn't

having it oh you know I can see how they erase - okay I'm gonna test out the

eraser see what the difference is for shading I would say I would have to

definitely have to go with the black wing alright so let's test out the

eraser I got this eraser it's like a reach it's a very cool-looking

retractable eraser I'm a fan all right so I'm gonna try to erase this mark I

accidentally made this is the free pencil okay let's see her oh this erased

pretty cleanly I don't really see any mark like there's one mark that's a

little stubborn try to erase something from the black wing okay this is about

an equivalent sized of mark okay you know this one is not coming up as easily

this mark definitely seems harder to erase than the other one mm-hmm all

right so one point for the free pencil for sure okay I was not expecting that I

really thought the Palomino would erase a little cleaner pretty interesting the

mark with the free pencil came off cleanly the one with the way more

expensive Palomino black wings did not now I don't know if maybe that

would be different with the regular black wings that are apparently softer

led I don't know but there's still definitely a faint mark here that

outcome really surprised me because you're paying so much more for these

pencils and you would kind of expect them to be able to be easily erasable

and this eraser got awesome reviews too so I imagine if you're an artist or

you're like a you do design or lettering you'd probably have to do a lot of

erasing and it is a little disappointing that this mark did not come up very

cleanly alright I'm gonna make a very little

make a very faint all right I made a super faint line let's see if how it

does with that I'm trying I'm really trying to give these pencils a chance I

mean obviously I want them to be worth twenty-five dollars because that's how

much I paid for them okay this one did better there's still like a tiny mark

but it's not that noticeable I would tell you this if you are working with

these pencils and you need to erase stuff it might be good to go with the

regular black wings with the very soft graphite core and in fact if I bought

more of these pencils I would probably go for the regular black wings and give

those a try so maybe they would be erased easier okay we're gonna do one

more test with the free pencil I'm gonna make a line that's got a little more

pressure on here okay this is a line with quite a bit pressure on it it's

very dark all right let's see if this erases lesson learned if you do want to

be able to erase pencil marks don't press so hard which seems very obvious

probably I might try out the regular black wings just to see if there's a

difference in the erase ability I no erase ability is a factor now to get

black wing the benefit of the doubt I'm going to try to use the eraser that it

came with instead of the my own eraser just to see if that makes a difference

okay someone make kind of a sort of a normal line okay here we go

make a couple of these alright let's try to use the eraser that's actually on the

pencil see if that makes a difference

you know what actually it sorta did this is definitely not completely gone and

I'm using the eraser that came on the pencil I mean it's not a big deal if

you're just messing around but if this is some sort of final art project and it

relies on you being able to erase all your pencil marks that might be a

problem all right let me try to get the remainder with my eraser let's see I

mean the lines are very faint like you really can barely see them you know what

actually this eraser is doing better okay here we go

lesson learned get a cool retractable eraser I will link this one below I like

it so far and I also got refills for when this one runs out so this is

definitely doing pretty good with the Blackwing pencil Oh smudge ability

alright we're gonna try to smudge I gotta say the Blackwing definitely feels

better in your hand and it's smoother writing experience overall I never

thought I would ever say that sentence in my life but I just did actually I've

got a q-tip let me try to smudge it with a q-tip so I don't I really don't want

to get my hands like super dirty okay let's see how much this smudges I mean

there's a little bit of smudge enos but it's not like super bad alright we'll

try this other one you know I would say this one's smudging like a little bit

more I would say it's really not like a crazy difference in my opinion final

verdict I actually do like the Palomino black winged pearl but if you just need

like a pencil a random pencil don't spend your money on these because they

are pretty expensive get the free pencils get one from like the putt-putt

wherever you are just don't spend a lot of cash on pencils but if you're an

artist you draw you illustrate you do hand lettering or like me you just want

to really practice those things and you want to get better at them these might

be worth looking into but definitely look to see which one of these fits your

need because there is a difference in how firm this graphite is which will

affect what you are writing or drawing I am a little bit disappointed though

because I thought that it would erase easier then it did and it still did

smudge a little bit but overall I do like this pencil better is it worth an

extra twenty three dollars four pack of pencils you know I don't know I could go

either way if you were on the fence or just curious

about these cult classics the Palomino black-winged pencils I hope this video

was helpful I was just curious myself so that's why I wanted to make this video

and if anyone does use these pencils and you have a better suggestion for an

eraser let me know I'm curious I only tried two erasers but I know there's

like a gazillion more out there to try so I'm always open if you have any

suggestions if you like this video be sure to hit that like button and

Red Mandarin Essential Oil | Top 5 Red Mandarin oil uses - Duration: 2:44.

today we're gonna talk about red Mandarin it's another one that was

offered in this month's promotion and they also offered it at the Mother's Day

so I'm hoping they decide to keep it around full-time stay tuned and

I will tell you everything I know red Mandarin cold pressed from the peels

it is also known as the temple orange or the Tangor it has such a sweet smell

it's known as the sweetest of all the citrus oils it reminds me of being in

Thailand during the rainy season I don't know why so a lot of people use this

interchangeably with tangerine but the difference is that this is the sweetest

of all the citrus fruits additionally where most of the citrus

fruits have limonene d and we know that that is great for a number of things in

antibacterial anti-inflammatory and anti...anti...anti this also has another

compound that works really good with women indeed called gamma terpene and

that makes it a powerhouse cleansers this is going to be great in cleaning

product it smells so delightful it's gonna blend well with any of the

citrus oils, rose, lavender, bergamot lemon sandalwood, Any of those are gonna

smell delightful isn't how I use it what use it as a top note in your personal

perfume oils... like I said it blends well with the woodsy the musky any other

citrus but it is going to be your top note in this one. It inspires childlike

energy so actually I'm going to an 80s themed rollerskating party tonight

I'm going to put this on before I go. Number three it's great for oily skin so you can use it in your

moisturizer to help balance out your skin. Number four add it to your dryer

Balls add three drops cinnamon bar three drops cloves five drops red mandarin

mix those in a separate little bottle or or one of these you know little bottles and

then add that to your dryer balls to give your laundry a boost in the dryer.

drops cardamom one drop red Mandarin mix all of those together add it to a

$25 Pencils Worth The Hype? Palomino Blackwing Pearl vs Free Pencil | SEWING REPORT - Duration: 14:41.

which is better a really expensive pencil or one I got for free we're gonna

find out

welcome to the Sewing Report I'm Jennifer Moore helping you discover your love of

sewing crafts in DIY projects and I've got two pencils here one that I got for

free in a stash builder box a very long time ago and one that I probably paid

way too much money for this is the cult classic the Palomino blackwing pearl

it's white I paid $25 for 12 pencils and I want to test these out kind of side by

side to see are these worth it isn't worth it to pay 25 big ones in

comparison I was at the grocery store and I noticed they were selling a pack

of pencils like 10 or 12 for a dollar 78 so that's a pretty big price difference

and I kind of want to know will these live up to the hype I've heard so much

about these it feels like I've been seeing these everywhere lately so I

wanted to try them out for myself and for you guys so we're gonna do some

comparison tests and see how these measure up now according to the company

website these pencils were originally made back in the 1930s and they were

very popular among like artists musicians her tunas so they were

discontinued and then people wanted to bring them back so they did there are

three different types of Palomino black wings there is the black wing 602 which

is the firmest of the graphite so it's apparently good for like writing and

everyday users the original black wing is the black pencil with the gold

imprint and white eraser and that one is being marketed towards artists and

musicians it's got I guess a softer graphite and then the one I got is the

black winged pearl and that's white with a white eraser and it's sort of a medium

firmness I chose the pearl version because it was sort of in-between I

wasn't exactly sure what I needed and I probably won't be needed to erase a lot

of things so I didn't want to go for the 602 because that is apparently the

hardest pencil they have they also have some really cool special editions they

have like a subscription glove and you can subscribe to get

special limited-edition pencils every month and some of those designs I'm

gonna show them on the website they look really cool if I get really into drawing

and find I need these types of supplies a lot I would actually think about the

subscription because they were really cool and it seems like that's the only

way you can get the special editions they seem to sell out very quickly the

subscription does seem a little pricey but if you're like really geeky about

art supplies and drawing supplies that might be for you alright so let's get

into the test I'm going to try to just use it as a writing implement and I'm

going to divide this is just like random copy paper so I'm gonna divide it kind

of in half maybe I'll try to draw some basic shapes also try to do a little

shady and see if I notice a difference I didn't really know there were this many

types of pencils so and yes I was totally drawn in by the packaging and

the cult classic status I want to be honest with you I was like those look

really cool and I totally bought into it so we're gonna see if that lives up to

the hype okay so everything on this side is gonna be drawing with the free pencil

everything on the other side is gonna be drawing with the black wing okay so

let's try to draw no disclaimer I am definitely not a professional artist so

I'm not even sure if I'm gonna try um what should we draw first I'm gonna try

to draw a pencil I'm not that good at drawing I did take some art classes in

school this feels very smooth to draw so that's kind of nice okay so we've got

this pencil it does seem very soft and I didn't really notice any difference in

sharpening these two pencils like didn't notice anything out of the ordinary okay

so and I'm also gonna use this volvo installation booklet just to cover up

the pencil so I don't smudge it that's a problem with being a lefty is that your

hand always has crap on the bottom of it okay so let's try to draw a pencil over

here and then we will write this pencil definitely seems harder like it's a

darker mark for sure it makes darker marks

don't all go at the same angle so I may need some gridlines okay so that's my

You could be looking at the UA traitor RIGHT NOW! #UAINVESTIGATION - Duration: 10:00.

Hey guys, I have a revolutionary new theory about who the UA traitor might

be, and I want to submit it to Tekking's UA investigation contest. To follow

the rules of contest I'm supposed to put something on the screen, but I'm not too

good at video editing so here's the nyancat, I guess. *Music starts. It's too loud.*

All right, so I have this crazy new theory the trader is actually Hagakure Toru.

Why, you ask? Well... uh... damn, is it just me, or is this cat REALLY loud? Cat... CAT... CAT, SHUT UP! Cat? Oh, okay,

I'll be right back. Yelling at work, I guess I need to learn

basic video editing skills first. Okay, I figured out how to do some basic stuff. So like I said, my

revolutionary theory is that Hagakure Toru, aka Invisible Girl,

aka worst girl, is the UA traitor. I'll put a picture of her on the screen right now.

Oh wait that's, just me in my cosplay of her. Pretty good though, right? Okay, here

she is for real. Oh yeah, that is the one rule of contest that I'll be breaking

this whole time: there will be TONS of nudes of Toru on the screen all the

time. Look, here's a few more! I'll be sticking

those in this whole time as little Easter eggs, but for the non-ecchi ones,

I'll need a little help pointing her out. Mushroom girl (I know her name's Shemage, shut up), could you do the honors please?

Awesome, thank you very much. Now I know what you're thinking:

This idiot thinks he came up with the 'Toru is traitor' theory. Okay, okay. I get it but hear me out, cuz I

get into some stuff that I haven't heard anybody else talk about yet and I think it

deserves a little bit of a look. So my theory is that Hagakure is not only the

traitor, she's actually not even schoolgirl age.

Let me explain. I first came up with this theory when I saw this panel of chapter

169 - uh, spoilers, obviously. This is when the 1-A kids are suggesting events for

their cultural festival and everybody's just throwing out random ideas. Hagakure

says this 'Bikk(u)ri House' thing. Now, if you're a normal American weeb like me, or

even a normal Japanese school student like the rest of 1-A, you have no idea

what this is. I'll be honest I spent some time researching it and I don't even

know what it is. Apparently there are some subculture

back in the 70s based around this magazine called Bikkuri House. Look, I

don't know what it was, but it sounds cult-y. Regardless, the point is it's a

really outdated reference that nobody from the past 35+ years would get,

much less the kids in 1-A, and that's what started me down this little rabbit hole.

Now, there are some other ways you could write this off aside from Toru being an

adult, but I think they're all pretty unlikely. First of all, it could just be

that, you know, she has some obscure tastes. But like I said, this sort of subculture

hasn't existed for some 30-odd years, so that seems unlikely. Next, there was a

festival back in 2004 in Ikebukuro so maybe it's some sort of inside joke that

Horikoshi developed with his friends or something and decided to throw it into

the manga. Personally, though, I doubt it's a reference as obscure as that. Horikoshi

is just way too genre-savvy to just throw in a reference that his fan base wouldn't

get. Besides all that, he also went to college, like, way far away from Ikebukuro,

so it seems pretty unlikely that he'd make it to that festival (because he was in college at the time). Now, the other

obvious problem with this theory is that Hero Aca's timeline takes place sometime in

the future. We don't know exactly when, but we see modern hospitals when the

first golden baby is born, and it's been generations since then so a reference

from the 70s would be too outdated even for an adult of the Hero Aca timeline.

I have a couple of ideas how this theory gets around this problem, though.

First, even though it's technically set in the future, culture in the My Hero Academia

timeline seems to be pretty much comparable to ours, so instead of

thinking of the literal year when this 'Bikkuri House' phenomenon took place, it

might be more appropriate to think how long ago it took place. I mean, if it were

actually, you know, from the 70s in the Hero Academia universe, how would even

Toru know about it? Nobody would know about it!

It'd be ancient history! The other explanation is way simpler which is just...

Horikoshi forgot that his story is in the future. I mean,

the man's a genius but it's always possible that he could make a mistake or

two. Buuut I don't think he's actually making a mistake here. I think he

actually has considered all of this, so I'm just gonna assume that my first

explanation is right. I mean, it doesn't really matter either way. All right, so

I'm not gonna lie, that was basically my biggest piece of evidence, and really

the only sort of concrete one at all.

All the rest of my evidence is pretty

circumstantial but, I think it still is worth looking into. So first of all,

obviously Invisible Girl is invisible. I mean it's right there in the name. Check

out all these nudes of her though. Mm-mm. But even if she were older you wouldn't

be able to tell just by looking at her, because she looks just as fiiine as she

always has. Her hotness or, you know, lack thereof aside, though, she is pretty

much worst girl. Her personality basically boils down to a generic bubbly

teenager. With the cast of characters as big as it is, even just within class 1-A,

it's understandable that the author might want to slip in a few throwaway

characters... That is, if the author were anybody but Horikoshi. Anybody who's an

avid follower of the Hero Aca universe knows just how much of a fanboy this man

is of his own series. With the amount of effort that he puts in, I find it hard to

imagine they he'd intentionally make a generic character in 1-A. No, I think

this is just a front that Toru puts up as an older woman trying to act like a

teenage girl. I mean, alternatively, it could be that

she really is enjoying herself, and that's how Deku and pals win her back

when she reveals her true... colors? I mean, she's invisible, so she doesn't really

have colors... Either way, this feeds into my next point: her room. It's just filled

with stuffed animals and generic bullshit. When I first saw it, I thought:

"Wow, this looks like someone said, 'well I don't know what a normal girl's room

supposed to look like, so I'll just take my best guess.'" So again, you could

obviously write this off as Horikoshi trying to make her look generic and this

is what he thought generic looked like, or it could be

Toru trying to make herself generic. I obviously think it's the

latter, and that she's trying to make herself appear as normal as possible but

as no actual idea how to really do so. And this brings me to my final point:

Toru's sandbagging. Now this sort of relates to the typical Toru-traitor

theory, so I'll cover some of the more common points really quickly. Tohru is

one of the two characters who's absent (i.e. not shown) during the UA Invasion Arc along with

Aoyama. In the Forest Training Arc, Aoyama redeems himself with a clutch snipe,

but Toru kind of just naps through the arc along with Kyouka. She's also still

"unconscious" when the 1-A kids plan the Kacchan rescue, so that would explain

why the League of Villains didn't have any sort of intel on that. That might not be

super convincing, considering anybody from UA who wasn't in class 1-A also

wouldn't be in on that conversation... but let's be real, the traitor has to be

someone we really care about, so they're probably in 1-A. When I was researching

this, I also noticed that that conversation about the rescue takes place in the same

chapter as the idea of the traitor is introduced. It's kind of suspicious to me

that in that same chapter right after the idea of the traitor is brought up

that it's specifically pointed out there are people missing for this private

planning session. As a result, that kind of stuck out to me. If you're wondering

why I don't think this is evidence for Kyouka being the traitor,

well, we've seen her home life and it just looks way too normal. Even if the

teachers visited Toru's place, she could probably get away with claiming that her

parents were invisible and bullshit her way through like that. If she's way

better than we thought, she might even be able to use light refraction to make

illusory parents. Who knows? Incidentally, she also mentioned it being a "tough

fight," which her classmates assumed to be that it was hard to convince her

parents to move into the dorms. However, she could also be saying that it was

just tough to fake her way through a home visit with Eraserhead,

or that it was tough to convince the League of Villains to let her live at UA.

We didn't get to see that visit, so it's all speculation, but I think it's worth

considering. Anyways, I think Toro is just sandbagging really hard when it comes to

fighting to hide her true abilities. Like recently in the manga when she went

to go ambush Onomatopoeia-man, she doesn't even try to

be sneaky. We've seen all the other kids in one a improve, and we've seen Toru

practice moving silently, so there's no way that she'd make a move his dumb as

this accidentally. I mean, compare it to the Final Exam Arc when she's up against

Snipe, a pro hero who specializes in marksmanship and is presumably pretty

perceptive. Even though one of the win conditions for the exam was escaping,

which one would imagine would be pretty easy for someone invisible - at least, the

easier of the two options - instead she sneaks up on him and cuffs him. Even if

Snipe was distracted at the time and he was wearing weights, I think this proves

that Toru is way better than she normally acts. If you're asking why she'd

bust out her true skills here, my best guess is either: A. as a villain she

wanted to test herself against a pro hero, or B. because Aizawa said that if

you fail you don't go to the training camp, and she needed to guarantee that

she was there so she could tell the Villains where it was located.

So yeah, to sum it all up, I think that Hagakure Toru is not only the UA traitor,

but she's actually much older and much more skilled than she lets on. Let me

know if you think I missed anything and thanks for watching!

Drop D Tuning - Benjamin's Guitar Nerdery #021 - Duration: 10:36.

Hello and welcome to my weekly updated guitar nerdery video, and if you want to

stay at the ball please like and subscribe! Today I want to tell you

something about drop D tuning how to tune your guitar to drop D and what you

can do with it and what it's good for

first let me show you an easy way to tune to drop D considering you're coming

from standard E-tuning and of course you can you can take a tuner but if you

want to do it by ear, and I really can recommend it, I'm gonna explain why later.

A very good way to do it is using harmonics. ...My guitar is now tuned to

standard E and I'm gonna play the harmonic in the fifth position on the

low E string together with the harmonic in 12th position on the D string

and you clearly hear that interference that were that fluttering. ...and now I'm

gonna tune the low E string down to D I'm trying to catch the D while letting

ring those two harmonics

I just tuned my guitar back to standard E just to let you hear it one more time

and again one more time and take care you listen to the fluttering how it

changes the fluttering first starts in the very high speed and when the

notes come closer it starts to slow down and when there's no fluttering at all

your guitar is perfectly in tune!

And now I'm gonna show you how you can tune your guitar back to standard E tuning.

Play again the harmonic in the fifth position on the low E string together

with the harmonic on the A string in the seventh position and listen carefully to

the fluttering until it stops!

This is a very good way to tune your guitar to drop D and back to standard E

and you do not depend on the quality of your hearing the judgement of if the

fluttering is zero it's much easier than to get the pitch right

you're probably gonna use a tuner to tune to drop D, but make sure you check

it twice, because when you tune down your low E string to D it's getting more

sloppy and that means when you are not picking very carefully

you're getting a different pitch from your attack than from your sustaining note

and very often the tuner is not really getting that. Check it twice and then

you're on the safe side! ...I really love drop D tuning. 60 or 70% of my songs are

written in drop D and it's not only that the guitar is able to reach one whole

tone lower in the tonal range, in my opinion the whole character of the

guitar sound changes

the first time I was aware that there's something like a drop D tuning was in

the beginning of the 90s of the last century and from then on in the

beginning of the 90s of the last century I started to hear it more and more in

metal songs, they're using drop D and then later on they tuned the whole guitar down

to D and the D to C so you have dropped C tuning and nowadays guitar players

very often play bass guitar ;-) ...Let me tell and show you some cool things about the drop

D tuning: First a power chord is now very easy to play, because the three low

strings are now a D power chord

and you still have your former E power chord, your lowest E power chord. It sits

here in the second position

because you only need one finger for the power chord you can make much faster

movements now

That would be hardly possible in standard E tuning and keep in mind your

low E string is now a D string so all chords that integrate the low E string

have the root two frets higher and you also have to take into account when you're

playing solo if you want to play your pattern you used to when you're playing

solo just take into account that you have to jump two frets higher that's

easiest way first to manage the tuned down string

...but you can also experiment and take another approach to it just take into

account that you have 2 D strings now so everything you are playing on that T

string you can play on that D string that's one octave lower

so you randomly getting very interesting results.

just check it out it's cool
