Does anyone have experience with this, how do I safely melt that much wax on my model without burning her? Even just the finger tips feels like asking for a lot. Not super photography related but thought I’d try to find anyone wh…

Which point and shoot to get?

Which point and shoot to get? I do a lot of hiking and like to carry a small point-and-shoot camera that can fit easily in the leg of my pants or in a pouch on my backpack. I’ll take photos of scenic vistas or close ups of other natural things like lichen or pine cones – typical hiking stuff. I also use the camera to take action shots of my dogs romping and playing. I’ve had…

Which light should I buy? I recently bought a Godox Ad400 for $400 and I thought I would buy the 200 as a 2nd light for $200 if I got lucky but everyone has it basically the same price as mark 2 where I’m at.
