D90 + Fisheye video
I shot this video awhile ago and never posted it here for some reason. Shot at night with my 10.5mm fisheye lens on the Nikon D90 from the backseat of a Mini Cooper S while driving from downtown Vancouver to the north shore.

Coming soon to a store near you
A while ago, Paul & Mike called me up and asked if I’d be interested in working on a project with them. You may have seen their work in London Drugs and a ton of Apple resellers from here to California. They are planning a huge expansion into the US shortly so it’s pretty exciting…

DIY Steadicam + Nikon D90 Video
Years ago, I built this do-it-yourself poor man’s steadicam (which you can buy preassembled here) for about $20. It was for use with my mini-dv camcorder at the time. It worked pretty well and like that camcorder, has unfortunately been collecting dust in my garage for a few years now. I thought it might be…

Kodak Zi6 HD Camera: First Impressions
I’ve been anxiously waiting for this camera to be released since I first heard about it during the summer. Previously, I commented about the fact that most point and shoot cameras do a great job of capturing video so didn’t really see a need for a dedicated video camera on the low end of the…

Qik for the iPhone
At MobileCamp Vancouver this past weekend, I thought it might be fun to try out Qik.com‘s iPhone app. It’s currently only available for use on jailbroken iPhones (via Cydia). While David was talking about some iPhone tricks, I streamed him live via wifi to Qik and we had it on the projector in the room….

One week with the iPhone 3G
I was going to call this post “It’s been One Week…” but in light of the recent issues Barenaked Ladies frontman, Steven Paige is having, I decided to go for something else instead. I’m not going to do a ‘full’ review since that’s been done to death already. I thought I’d share some of my…

A day at Playland
A nice diversion from all the iPhone related stuff lately, yesterday a bunch of us (John, Rebecca, Jen, Keira and Amy) went to Playland for the day. It’s our local amusement park that is the foundation for the Pacific National Exhibition which happens later this summer. I thought it might be fun to try and…
