How to Speak fluent on YouTube . . . Glide Gear TMP 100 Teleprompter
You too can speak fluent on YouTube and on your show while looking straight on your audiences. Great gadget for content creators, motivational speakers, show presenters and hosts, etc. If you have been struggling to construct good grammar like me, teleprompter can definitely help you. It takes some learning but definitely it works. This is my second video using it and I'm not there yet but getting there. Unfortunately it has to go back to its owner but its one of the gadgets I will look into in the future.

Fujifilm XT4 200fps Slowmotion & Eye Auto detection autofocus Test (STD Film Simulation)
I was testing Fujifilm Xt4 Crop sensor Apex camera slow-motion capabilities. I shot the lady on the film test at 200fps with auto eye detection enables. She was walking at a regular pace. The camera can go to 240fps but since i am in PAL country i rather keep to 200fps but will next time test the the 240fps. I had a shot period to give back the camera and couldn't go shoot a very fast moving subject but definitely I will do that in future. The camera was still a test camera body and I'm not sure what version of the firmware was. The slow-motion is impressive even though there are signs of moiré on her pattern dress.
