Nikon recently announced the WU-1a which is a $60 USD plugin device for the Nikon D3200 only that can send photos to an android device via Wi-Fi and  let the Android device act as LiveView and control. The video to the right shows the $60 USD Android App in operation. To me this shows that [...]

If been looking for a good comparison of what I’m missing out on by not upgrading to the 5D MKIII and how both the MKII and MKIII compare to the new Nikon D800.

I am ecstatic! I’ve tried several SD/CF adapters to try to get the Eye-Fi Pro X2 to work on my 5Dmkii and none have worked. But a few days ago Adam Pendleton left a comment on a post earlier this week that the  Extreme CF Adapter works on his 5Dmkii so I immediately ordered it and [...]

This video sponsored by the guys over at imagingresource.com Chuck Westfall walks [...]

As a Canon shooter, I was glad to see all the cool specs on the new Canon 600EX-RT and companion ST-E3-RT that Canon announced at the beginning of this month. Back before I met Scott Hargis in about 2006 I purchased the old ST-E2 (predecessor to the ST-E3) with a 580EX. They were pricey and [...]

For those of you not familiar with KickStarter, it’s a site that helps people with product ideas get funding. People pledge support at various levels to the project. If the project raises the money the project goes ahead and you get one [...]
