Polaroid PoGo ZINK Printer June 4, 2008

Earlier this year, I reported on the Poloroid ZINK Zero-Ink Printer. In theory, it was brilliant. With its release (slated for early July) coming up, more details about the device have begun to circulate around the blogosphere.
Now if you still don’t know what the ZINK printer is, let’s quickly review. Imagine a portable printer, no [...]

ViPR April 18, 2008

Check it out: it’s a service (hopefully a free one) that identifies media covers in your photos (i.e. books, DVDs, CDs) and sends you an e-mail with the information on the pictured title.
Now, this is either super cool or somewhat stupid. Let me explain. Unless this works on say, foreign media, [...]

Sigma DP1 March 4, 2008

My family has had three of those Sony CyberShots–the T-series. You know –the crazy slim ones. Yeah. After purchasing all of them, I’ve come to realize something. They all suck. The picture quality is horrid and blur seems to always taint your subjects. On the other side of the scale, I have a Nikon [...]

Polaroid Digital Mobile Zero-Ink Photo Printer February 11, 2008

I’ve been sick for a while now so I haven’t been up to the job of writing lately. Sorry, so here’s what Uncrate had to say about the Polaroid ZINK Zero-Ink Printer:
“With its instant cameras now a thing of the past, Polaroid is moving instant printing technology into the digital age with its Digital Instant [...]

Happy Holidays! December 23, 2007

Vienna Teng – Atheist Christmas Carol Performance
I just went to a Vienna Teng Quartet performance so I thought it would be fitting to leave you boys and girls with this song right before Christmas. Enjoy the holidays!

Eye-fi October 30, 2007

It’s a clever name for a clever product. The latest cameras are more and more commonly seen with built-in Wi-Fi features. But those of us who can’t afford to buy the latest toys are left with the inconvenience of plugging in and uploading our photos. Wires irritate me. So when I can, I opt [...]

Teaser: Adobe Photoshop Express September 11, 2007

“John Nack (senior product manager for Photoshop) has confirmed the development of Photoshop Express. It’s a free online photo editor that’s not meant to replace Adobe’s current offerings, but ‘make Adobe imaging technology immediately accessible to large numbers of people.’” – Gizmodo
It’s smart to reach out to those who haven’t used Photoshop. By doing so, [...]

Nikonians Rejoice!: D300 and D3 August 23, 2007

It’s a big day for Nikonians! Nikon has just announced two new models: the D300 and the D3 (which replaces the D2Xs). Each are brilliant in their own rights.
The D300, which succeeds the D200, features a three-inch live viewfinder, not unlike those on digital snapshot cameras. This is a first for Nikon. The camera also [...]

Smile! August 8, 2007

Today, I went down to San Jose Camera and I finally got the 18-200 VR DX that I’ve wanted for two years. It’s my fourth Nikkor lens and to be honest, it just makes the other three obsolete. I love that I now have one lens that does all the jobs so there’s little need [...]
