Tom and I love the Peak Design Tripod!!! The first tripod we LOVE, email us for details. We really appreciate you using our affiliate links to make your purchase https://bit.ly/2WUfJYU.

Tom and I use DxO PureRAW for noise reduction. I have done side by side comparisons with many noise reduction software (including Topaz Denoise & Topaz AI), but PureRAW is SUPERIOR to all other products and the resulting image is a RAW file. If you want to try or purchase DxoPureRAW (or other DxO or Nik products) we greatly appreciate you using our affiliate link: https://tidd.ly/32okP1W 

Tom and I are OM SYSTEM (formerly Olympus) Ambassadors. We use OM-1 cameras https://tinyurl.com/lisatom-OM1. Email us for camera/lens suggestions.
