At CES PMA 2012, Bruce from Minox shows me the DDC 5.1 Digital Camera. The novelty piece is more than just good looks, it actually shoots photos and video. The DCC 5.1 Digital Camera is a miniscule (2.9 x 1.8 x 1.7″), flyweight (under 4 oz) digital camera that looks like a classic German rangefinder [...]

Judging by the design alone, I’m not a huge fan. This G1 X is a bit boxy and bulky for my taste. However, there is a heck of a lot more to Canon’s newest addition to the G series lineup than just the initial aesthetics alone. The G1 X is an excellent balance of Elph [...]

You know it has happened to you too! You’re out somewhere, you need a tripod of some sort to capture this shot perfectly and go figure, you don’t have one. Joby is known for their flexible tripods with articulating legs and versatile body styles so it’s no surprise that they’ve come up with an always [...]
The Canon ELPH 300 HS is an ultra compact camera that is now selling for just under $200. Starting out with the design, it’s small and very sleek with a sandy coating for an improved grip. The interface was very easy for me to navigate around in and it works nicely in all auto mode [...]
Since the arrival of the Pico Flex Table Dolly, I’ve been DYING to take her out for a test drive but couldn’t seem to find the time or location. I’ve also been toting around a few compact cameras- taking test shots and short videos. Walking around this past weekend I came across the original Mission [...]

It seems like digital cameras and smart phones are beginning to mesh a bit thanks to the iPhone. I think digital cameras lack the native connectivity to Wi-Fi (w/o an Eye-Fi card). Consumers want quality pictures and videos with easy social sharing. We’re obsessed with Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, texting and email- which is why the [...]
Remember when you were a kid and you had a View-Master from Fisher-Price? If not, I’m sincerely sorry for you. I did and I brought it everywhere with me. I had a ton of reels- none of which I remember. My point is this: now, as an adult, I want something like that but way [...]

I MUST OWN the WVIL and with its powers harness the resolution to the most pressing global concern- where in world is Carmen Sandiego? Even [...]
Better camera quality than what the iPhone 4 has to offer but not quite a DSLR, Panasonic’s new Lumix DMC-FH7 will be going for $179.99 later next month. This point and shoot boasts a 3″ Smart Touch Screen where the user can take advantage of Touch Auto Focus (AF), Touch Zoom, Touch Shutter and Intelligent [...]

Sony is rumored to launch two new cameras: the Sony NEX C3 and the Sony Alpha A35 on June 3. This web gossip is yet to be confirmed. The new NEX C3 model, which will most likely replace the NEX-3 and possibly NEX-5, is said to feature a brand new 16.2 megapixel Exmor sensor from [...]
