Digital camera is half-inch thick, costs $25
Posted on March 12, 2010 | No Comments
Welcome to the future of digital photography, friends. This $25 camera measures 13.5 millimeters thick and takes what I can only assume to be mind-blowingly detailed 640x480 photos. That’s not all! The built-in memory holds 52 images! There’s no expansion slot but like I said, it holds 52 images. You’re not going to need an expansion slot, am I right?

Posted on March 4, 2010 | No Comments
This $70 Casio Exilim is purple but it’s priced at over $100 just about everywhere else, so let’s just go with it. It looks more pink to me, but Woot says it’s purple and who am I to question Woot? Speaking of Woot, that’s where you can get this deal (today only).

Quick release $14 camera belt clip
Posted on February 8, 2010 | No Comments
Oh man, the unapologetic nerdacity of this product is through the roof. Yet somehow it seems useful and practical. Trying to get a DSRL camera out of a bag packed full of gear isn’t exactly an enjoyable exercise, but neither is walking a conference floor all day with your camera dangling around your neck like a lead balloon.

First official hands-on with the Olympus PEN E-PL1: Really, really nice
Posted on February 3, 2010 | No CommentsAfter a series of leaks brought us the news of the E-PL1 early we were concerned that the new member of Olympus’ PEN family would be a clunker. We were wrong. This new model looks “cheaper” than the EP-1 and EP-2 simply because it is clad in aluminum up front and polycarbonate in the back. This [...] -
Fujifilm unleashes a torrent of digital cameras

We begin with the interesting ones – basically the FinePix XP10 rugged model, shown above, and the hubristic HS10, a 30X optical zoom wannabe D-SLR camera that shoots in HD. Otherwise [...] -

You know, you could have just asked me to put my camera away, Mr. Drunk With Power bouncer
Posted on January 9, 2010 | No CommentsWhy do nightclub bouncers think they're above the law? I attended a Divx party at some place called Moon at the Palms Hotel in Las Vegas for CES. (Divx actually has some neat stuff on the way, but that's a matter for another day.) Like always, I had my camera, a Canon DSLR, hanging around my neck. This, having a camera, wasn't an issue at the Divx party, which ended at 11:00pm, but it most certainly became an issue a few hours later. Photographers take note! Following the Divx party, which was 100 percent okie dokie, another one started up. People were welcome to stay at Moon just that it was no longer a Divx event. I think the new party had something to do with the Adult Video Awards or whatever. With this new party, apparently, came new rules, rules that were not made clear to attendees who had stayed over from Divx. The rule that got me in hot water: no cameras allowed.

Party Van!

I’m not quite that jaded yet, so I still have to stop and stare at something like this. If you feel like wasting fifteen minutes of your day, come take a look. I was walking next to Washing Square Park [...] -

Simple setup, a low $10-per-month access fee, and a fairly straightforward user experience make the LiveLine worth a closer look.

Is this the full press release for the Canon EOS 7D?
Posted on August 31, 2009 | No CommentsThe press release for the Canon EOS 7D has leaked. Unfortunately, it's only available as a translation from Chinese, so it's riddled with all sorts of gibberish. Not that that's ever stopped us before!

DIY home surveillance
Posted on August 3, 2009 | No Comments
It's like the Internet knows what I'm looking for! Josh Lowensohn at CNET just ran through a few webcam-based surveillance systems. I just bought the Linksys WVC54GCA so I can watch the front door for the FedEx man while I'm in the attic and lo and behold Josh has gone and apprised a few of the better models out there. This, in turn, helps me in my quest to be completely obese and immobile inside my house while watching the exterior on cameras arrayed around the perimeter.
