Sony DSC-HX99 Review! Perfect Travel Camera?

So I normally travel with my heavy Sony A77 DSLR and Olympus TG3 Tough camera. I love both of them, but I wanted to lighter zoom travel camera for vlogging and light packing. I saw the Sony HX99 and thought it had all the right specs, so I bought one online (
I https://amzn.to/2IhQ97f ) and made this review.

  • PROS:
  • Zoom (Zeiss glass 24mm to 720mm optical, with additional 2x digital zoom,
  • light weight ,
  • electronic viewfinder for photographing in the sun,
  • USB charging (so I can use my cell phone charger)
  • super compact
  • Touch screen
  • Face tracking
  • fast autofocus
  • Under $450
  • Compact Digital 18.2 MP
  • 4K Video
  • Tiltable LCD
  • CONS:
  • Image quality is not as good as expected (probably due to the small sensor)
  • Higher ISO gets fuzzy
  • Accidental Touch screen focus.
  • Complex setup and menu system
  • Sony Camera App to Smartphone didn’t work for me for my Samsung S8 🙁

Conclusion:
Overall is it worth it? If you want to travel with just a smart phone and need a small ultra zoom camera with a lot of great features to take a photo or video to post to your favorite social media platform, this may be the one. Light compact and full of utility. Don’t expect to zoom into your photos for lots of detail, because of the small sensor size its kinda muddy.

Trader Joe’s! New Zealand UMF 10+ Manuka Honey! $13.99!!! Quick Review!

I was at Trader Joe’s and saw they had  New Zealand Manuka Honey (8 oz) rated at UMF 10+ for  $13.99!!!  I bought a bottle to taste test for texture and taste! I made a quick review on Youtube.  There are other varieties of UMF 10+ Manuka honey on sale online:  https://amzn.to/2MLHpWq . Btw, my Youtube vlogs and reviews may also have associated affiliate links to products that may earn from qualifying purchases.

In my video, I compare Trader Joe’s UMF10+ Manuka Honey with Comvita ( https://amzn.to/2Bjpy4H ) 15+ and 5+ Manuka honey.  I also have Melora UMF 5+ manuka honey ( https://amzn.to/2Gk1cez ) which has similar texture and taste to the TJ UMF 10+ Manuka.

The Comvita 15+ is definitely darker, richer, gritter, and earthy tasting than the TJ Manuka.  Likewise with the Comvita 5+, was sweeter and grittier than the TJ Manuka.  The TJ Manuka had a bit of a smooth creamed honey texture and was sweet.   Similar to the Melora Manuka honey I expect the color to darken over time as the honey evaporates.

At $13 for 8 ounces, it’s an awesome value.  Typically I paid about $20 for an eight-ounce bottle of UMF 10+ Manuka honey.  This is my luxury hobby to collect honey. So I am price sensitive to the cost of specific honey.
I keep all my Manuka honey I collect in room temperature.

Costco just restocked Melora New Zealand 10+ UMF Manuka honey on sale! The Melora Manuka Honey is 10+ UMF + (1.1 lb or 500g ) are all priced at $31.99! They are similarly priced at on Amazon ( https://amzn.to/2tgjLZj ) for Melora.

I current eat about 1 to 3 jars of Manuka honey every year and found I prefer 10+ UMF honey more as it has a good balance of rich sweet flavor, aroma, and texture. I noticed that the higher the UMF the denser the honey and flavor. 10+ was a good balance.

I bought a lot of Manuka honey over the years, most have been from Costco and Amazon. I made a taste test video prior.
