So I don’t know about you, but when I first got some experience with Apple’s new 8-pin Lightning connector, I had pretty mixed feelings about it.

It was about this time last year that I decided to up my photographic game. After a good bit of searching, I settled on the Canon T3i DSLR and a number of lenses. I’ve been quite happy with the camera but, at times, wanted something that sat between the small and easy to use camera [...]
