Unboxing My Canon EOS 60D

Unboxing My Canon EOS 60D

I finally took the plunge and gotten myself my second body. I bought a Canon 60D DSLR body only package. I have enough lenses already so I didn’t get a kit package. The box itself isn’t anything special. It’s the usual Canon camera box. The Canon T1i DSLR I purchased last year had a better looking box than this one. When you open the box, the first thing you get to see are the manuals and CDs which are placed in two...

Yaniv Berg’s DSLR

Yaniv Berg’s DSLR

It definitely looks like what you think it is. Yup! It’s a penis DSLR. Yaniv Berg’s concept is instead of holding the camera to your eyes, the user points it to frame a subject at stomach level. For guys, it will look like you have a big hard on protruding out of your tummy. This is definitely a camera I want. However, there’s no pricing or availability. It’s just a design. Cool design though. Source: [Yanko...

So I guess I was lucky when I ordered it. July 21, 2010 was the day it arrived. I picked up my T1i...

Here’s a quick comparison between the Sony NEX-5, NEX-3, Panasonic GF1, and the Olympus E-PL1. These are the best point and shoot cameras out on the market these days. Why? they all have interchangeable lenses. Why is that good? Because different photographic compositions may require different types of lenses. You may ask yourself, why not just get a DSLR? My answer here would be, yes. Get a DSLR, and if you’re a serious...

Solar Strap for DSLRs

Solar Strap for DSLRs

Here’s something I’d like to wrap around my neck. With my Canon T1i on the way, I’m pretty sure battery life is going to be an issue here. Hence, this gadget. It’s a camera strap that charges your battery while it hangs around your neck. It’s equipped with a thin solar panel and a DC plug. Simple, yet brilliant. I’m pretty sure I’ll be needing something like this come next month. The only issue here is...

Gadgets I’ve Read About That Don’t Make Sense

Today, as I was browsing around my Google Reader Page, I’ve found 3 Gadgets that were posted that don’t make any sense to me. Here they are: First up is a bag made out of a recycled keyboard. It’s just ridiculous for any sane woman to bring this thing around anywhere. If I saw someone sporting this abomination, I’d move away and keep a safe distance from her. She clearly has some psychological issues. Next up is the...
