Remember that scene from the Crocodile Dundee movie where the protagonist is threatened with a small switchblade retorts “That’s not a knife…“, then proceeds to pull out his own much larger knife and says “That’s a knife!” and saves the day?

New Credo WS Digital Camera Backs Now Available from Mamiya Leaf

SLR 37mm Lens to iPhone 5 Adapter Kit
Even though I love them, I’ll be the first to admit that lens and other camera adapter equipment looks a little bizarre when mated to a smartphone. In the day, your 35mm SLR camera was a big, bulky sucker. It had heft, size, and throw-weight. So when you hooked up big lenses to it, it [...]

Picashare Picasa Sync iOS App Review
I hate synching my devices to computers. It’s much simpler to use iCloud and Photostream than it is to fire up the beast that is iTunes these days. In an all-iOS environment, this works great. But if I have a number of photos that need to be edited in Picasa, it’s a pain to download [...]
Chrome Niko Camera Pack Takes Your Gear on the Go
I received a review sample of the Chrome Niko Camera Pack backpack a few weeks ago, andI’ve been using it on and off since them. I loved the fact that the backpack came with a handwritten note that encouraged me to “be hard on the bag”. Always one to take direction well (okay not really) [...]
