Off topic: sound recording equipment

My favorite microphone for sound recording on field is the Sennheiser ME66. This is a shotgun mic with ultra low self-noise. Ideal for making audio records in the nature.

DSLR cameras have low quality built-in mics and preamps, so I have to use an external recorder.

My current audio recorder is the Marantz PMD-661 Mk2 with XLR 48V phantom power.

Welcome

Hello and welcome to our blog!

I'd like to give you tips and advices for relaxing.

"People respond to stress in different ways, namely, by becoming overwhelmed, depressed or both. Yoga, QiGong, Taiji, and Pranayama that includes deep breathing tend to calm people who are overwhelmed by stress, while rhythmic exercise improves the mental and physical health of those who are depressed. People who encounter both symptoms simultaneously, feeling depressed in some ways and overexcited in others, may do best by walking or performing yoga techniques that are focused on strength."
