I came across this cool little photo frame today at Future Shop (who call it a Memorex 1.5″ Trio Digital Photo Frame). There are a ton of digital frames on the market now but this one stood out as a little different since it has three different screens that your photos show on (35mm film…
Want! Today Nikon announced a new 35mm f/1.8G lens. DPReview has all the details. I’ll be picking this up as soon as it’s available.
Stumbled across a fun new camera app for the iPhone called QuadCam [App Store link] after seeing photos taken with it popping on Reilly’s site. It’s from the same guy that created the CameraBag app that I previously mentioned and it’s just as fun. It basically lets you set a timer and it takes a…
This past weekend, I participated in my first group photoshoot with members of the Vancouver Strobist group (on Flickr). After missing out on a studio shoot in January, I was invited to this one at The Dollhouse Studios. The models were members of the Sweet Soul Burlesque troupe and were fantastic to work with despite…
Last week, I got a couple of lens adapters meant for mobile phones in the mail. Today, while playing with my Zi6, I realized that the lens adapters fit perfectly on the Zi6. There is a little metal ring with sticky tape that the lenses attach to via magnets which fits perfectly on the Zi6…

Just started playing with video in iMovie ’09 at lunch today and thought it might fun to see how it deals with hand held video. Here’s the stabilized version of the fisheye video I shot with my D90 at WordCamp Whistler: and here’s the original: The color differences are just my output settings in iMovie…
This is so cool: New York 2008 from Vicente Sahuc on Vimeo. It was shot with a Casio Exilim EX-F1 camera at 300 frames per second then edited to 24 frames per second. Kind of the opposite of what I’ve been doing with my time lapse videos and it yields stunning results. I really don’t…
Finally back home from Whistler after a great weekend up there for WordCamp Whistler where I met a ton of new people and was able to spend time with many friends. It was nice to get out of Vancouver for a change of scenery and yet have so many familiar faces around. I thought I’d…
