Dual Gain shooting is a little different, so I plan on making more content around this in the future. I'll update this page as I do more testing, and probably make a few YouTube videos about this.
If you have anything you'd like to see in particular about this, as I'm actively testing this now (or when my pre-order actually arrives!), send me an email and let me know what you'd like me to include in this test. Send me an email via the form on the contact page.
If you like this quick content, check out my YouTube channel for more!
