Epson PictureMate Dash (PM 260) Portable Photo Lab

Julie — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 04:00:00 +0000

It’s strange, but in all the years that I’ve been using digital cameras, I find that I rarely print out my photos. I usually just copy them into a folder on my computer and look at them from time to time, or post some of them to my flickr account. Although I have a perfectly nice full-sized color printer (Canon Pixma iP6000D), I have always found it a pain to use for small 4×6 sized snapshot prints.

Sanyo VPC-HD1 Digital Movie Camera

Julie — Thu, 23 Feb 2006 01:07:00 +0000

A couple months ago, I was been bitten by the video bug when I started watching Josh Leo’s Vlog. This guy makes some really great videos and they inspired me to try my hand at doing the same thing. Well, not really the same thing, because I didn’t start an actual Vlog. When I get in front of the camera I tend to look and act like a total goob. No one wants to see that, trust me ;o) Instead, I decided to do what I think I do pretty well; make … [visit site to read more]

Think Tank Photo Speed Freak Beltpack Review

Wayne Yang — Thu, 28 Apr 2005 05:00:00 +0000

When a photographer friend told me that new camera bag company
Think Tank Photo was allowing
professionals and serious amateurs to test drive its products, I had to jump at
the chance. The test drive gives certain photographers a month to decide whether
they want to purchase the bag or send it back. Think Tank President Doug Murdoch
is a former lead designer for Lowepro USA.
