It really isn't all that often that I review a stand-alone camera here on this site. I guess I just don't get the memos from Polaroid, Nikon, Olympus, and Kodak. (By the way, Kodak doesn't make cameras anymore.) Considering that everyone has cameras on their phones, most people don't really do the whole stand-alone camera thing. Not only can you take a photo with a camera … [Read more...] about Introducing theQ, the “World’s First Fashion-Foward Social Camera”

All-in-One Mouse and Camera from Genius
Just to let you know, the "Genius" that the headline is referring to, is a company with that particular title. I have seen them at conventions, but I would have to say that this All-in-One Mouse and Camera is genius. I don't know if you might need a mouse that is a camera, but I don't see why not. After all, if you ever have take pictures of items by your desk, it is a lot … [Read more...] about All-in-One Mouse and Camera from Genius
Manfrotto KLYP iPhone 5 Flash
Since many of us are using our phone like we are using cameras, it stands to reason why someone would make a flash for a smartphone. This is exactly what the company Manfrotto has done with the KLYP made for the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4. I had a chance to try out the KLYP, and it reminds me of a clip on a rifle. At least the types that you see in films when an assassin snaps … [Read more...] about Manfrotto KLYP iPhone 5 Flash
Meet Squito, the throwable camera
This is an interesting invention from Steve Hollinger called the Squito (it rhymes with mosquito). The Squito has a series of built-in cameras that look out in all directions and can somehow take photos of people while it is thrown up in the air. You can see in the video how four images are somehow mixed together with panoramic power. Not only can you take terrific … [Read more...] about Meet Squito, the throwable camera
Lowepro Transit Sling 250AW, for professional photographers
Just to let you know, I just got back from a vacation where I visited Arches State Park, and you can see after the jump the amazing photo that my wife took of the Delicate Arch in Utah. It was completely worth the trip, and man, I could tell you about the trip. In addition to some of the trail to the Delicate Arch, I was very worried about my wife and her DSLR camera. It … [Read more...] about Lowepro Transit Sling 250AW, for professional photographers

We are obviously living in an era where most of our pictures are on our smartphones, but let's say you want to take it off your phone's memory card and put it on your wall. I would highly suggest using an application known as Pixuru. Pixuru allows Android and iOS users to send photos from their phones to Pixuru's printing facility. All that is required is taking a … [Read more...] about Pixuru can frame your smartphone pics
Samsung announces the Galaxy S4 Zoom
Just so I can get the disclaimer out of the way, I received the Galaxy S4 Zoom press release this morning, but the picture is from some other source, so it isn't really official. The Galaxy S4 Zoom is something that I thought I would see eventually, and it is a smartphone that really can be used as a camera. Yes, practically every smartphone has a camera these days, but … [Read more...] about Samsung announces the Galaxy S4 Zoom
The Dropcam HD gives you an extra eye
I have seen a lot of cameras designed for baby monitoring and other places where you might need a camera. Dropcam HD is designed to just set up quickly so you can monitor from everywhere. I first saw the Dropcam at CES over a year ago, and I was promised a review unit back then. It has only been this week when I finally got one. Well, you can imagine my excitement when … [Read more...] about The Dropcam HD gives you an extra eye
My Review of the ATC Chameleon by Oregon Scientific
I always like reviewing cameras like the Liquid Image Ego or other cameras like the one Go Pro puts out. The ATC Chameleon from Oregon Scientific does what those cameras do, twice as well. Yes, that is a play-on word, because it is able to film both the front and back. When you play the video back, you will see the two films that you made side-by-side. It's pretty cool, … [Read more...] about My Review of the ATC Chameleon by Oregon Scientific

Taser’s Axon Flex is not a taser, but a camera
I'm pretty certain that we all know what Taser International is known for, and my Source states that over ninety percent of United States policemen rely on them. The Axon Flex is not designed to shock any assailants, but it will film them. It is a 3.2 inch camera that work for about 12 hours. All that you need to do is push a button, and it will warm up by recording 30 … [Read more...] about Taser’s Axon Flex is not a taser, but a camera
Sun and Cloud Cameras charge with the sun and crank
I think we all have come accustomed to a world where every device that we want to use has to be charged, either with USB or just plugging it into the wall. This Sun and Cloud camera could be the world's self-sustaining camera. The Sun and Cloud camera has a solar panel up on top, so you can rely on the power of the sun to power this camera. You can also use the hand … [Read more...] about Sun and Cloud Cameras charge with the sun and crank
KeyShot makes CG almost indistinguishable from real life
I get very nervous when I see stuff like this, as my Source tells me one side of this image is real, and the other is CG. The answer is below after the jump. This image was made with a program known as KeyShot, which is able to make some very interesting images in CG that lack the "sheen" that is visible in most CG images. In fact, the images look so good that some … [Read more...] about KeyShot makes CG almost indistinguishable from real life
