AAA not camera talk.Some people have short memories. The 1960s and 70s were the age of the Nikon F. They ruled the world of photography.

AAA? Don't know what that means. Other than Anti Aircraft Artillery which is really 'off topic' IMO.
Didn't get an answer to my valid 'on topic' question so thought I'd join in on this subject instead

Almost impossible, I have given up that search for the time being.
Yep!
I ditched my extensive Canon/L-series lens DSLR setup, a four-body/10-lens u43 system and a complete Fuji X system (literally every lens in the lineup) and switched primarily to Leica.
Now I shoot with the new M-P (Type 240) and the M9-P for my serious stuff with the handful of fast-glass that I need. I also have a Leica D-Lux (109) and V-Lux (114) for less critical stuff. And as a "take everywhere" camera, I use a little Sony RX-100 Mk 3.
Let's put it this way ... IF it works all, it's also, by definition, blocking the signal from your phone on the side that it's applied. That'll clobber reception, and cause the phone to raise the gain on the radio amplifiers to try to compensate ... which will result in more heat and a sizable drop in battery life!
I'm just reporting what I believe to be true. I'm not too sure about their other claims regarding minimzing radiation but one thing is for certain, I'm getting significantly less static with the radisafe on vs off
There are certainly "shields" of this nature that work (though some, perhaps most, are just foil stickers) - generally by absorbing a range of frequencies and converting them to heat (as otherwise they would require a ground connection in order to work), or reflecting them. No rocket science there - we do that in design all the time.
The "radiation" claims ARE the radio waves that your phone is DESIGNED to emit, as that's how phones work. Blocking radiation isn't hard at all. No mysteries or voodoo science required to do that.
But there's no such thing as a free lunch; and the physics are simple here - if it's blocking the radio emissions from the phone (which it MUST be if it works) then it is also impeding the phones operation (ignore the "signal strength bars", they're typically meaningless). The net effect of which is what I described. You can't get around that. So if it's blocking RFI then it's blocking the intended output of the phone on the side it is applied.
The smart way to use something like this would be to put it on the DAC instead.
Certainly not less bass. And if you really want better sound, the TT has greater authority in the bass plus the openess of the Mojo and Hugo. You pays your money ....
Dave seems to be very well received, but at $13k, way out of my budget. I'd love to hear it and I am extremely curious as to how it sounds. I can't imagine it would be a tremendous improvement, but likely I'll never know.
