Shootsac Camera Bag Video Demo
I first became aware of camera bag maker Shootsac, via photographers on Twitter. I got to see the bags for this first time at the annual PMA tradeshow, last week. They’re very simple, attractive and a really good idea for wedding and event photographers who need to keep critical lenses and a flash on their […]
Read More »Indestructable Hoya HD Filter
I think the most impressive thing I saw at PMA this year was Hoya’s new HD filter demo. “HD” in this case stands for “hardened,” not high definition. The glass is made to withstand the impact of steel balls dropped from a height of 50 inches. So the filter is impressive in and of itself. […]

One of the themes at PMA this year was waterproof point-and-shoot cameras. It seems the camera makers have all decided the time has come for underwater digital cameras. For the past few years, underwater point-and-shoot digital cameras have been the exclusive domain of Olympus and Pentax. Pentax got the ball rolling back in 2005 with […]

Last year, Fujifilm had a prototype folding medium format camera in their booth that all the film shooters were drooling over (see photo below, taken at PMA 2008 by walterick). I made sure to ask about the camera when I met with the Fujifilm folks at PMA this time. The rep I spoke to said […]
Read More »Fuji Real 3D Concept
With two lenses, two processors, and a 3D LCD display, this camera takes 3D still and video images. It can also use the two lenses independently, one still one video, or one wide angle one telephoto, for traditional 2D imaging. Unfortunately, like showing HD on regular TV, it’s hard to show the 3D effect here.

Olympus didn’t introduce their hoped-for Micro Four Thirds camera at PMA this year, although they did have a concept camera behind glass in their booth. This is the same camera they showed behind glass at Photokina, last year. There’s not much to learn from looking at the Olympus Micro Four Thirds concept camera except that […]

Sometimes I come across a product and wonder what it’s for, or why I’d want to use it even knowing what it’s for. Here’s the second, Dust-Aid’s Dust-Shield, a clear film seal for the mirror chamber of your DSLR.
