This HC-GUM Covert Gum Stick Camera/DVR from Smarthome looks like an old-style pack of Wrigley’s Doublemint gum – if you don’t look too closely.

First, the technology keeps advancing that lures me into

Lens cap covers are a necessary evil. They protect my DSLR camera’s lens when I’m not using the camera, but they are so easy to lose. I’ve resorted to buying those keepers that you glue on to the cap and attach to the camera strap with an elastic band. You don’t lose the lens cap
