Disclaimer: No actual shots of balloons here (not much at least)   Thanks to some family affairs that we had to take care of in Angeles City last week, we were pretty much a stone’s throw away from Clarkfield, Pampanga, where The 17th Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta was taking place. On the first [...]

  The Olympus E-PL1 m4/3 System Camera   What kind of camera can you buy with PHP 15,000 anyway? A nice, shiny point & shoot; a halfway-decent megazoom bridge camera; or even an enthusiast compact like the Canon S95 or Panasonic LX5 if you look hard enough.

The Lytro Camera   Everybody who’s ever used a camera to take a picture of something has obviously experienced it – the badly focused blurry shot.

The Pentax Q with 8.5mm (47mm) f1.9 Lens   Today, the most popular buzzword in photography has got to be the MILC / ILC / EVIL cameras. (Mirrorless interchangeable lens compact / interchangeable lens compact / electronic viewfinder interchangeable lens) These new, little cameras are designed to provide amazing performance in small, mirrorless bodies.

  When it comes to camera technology, size really does matter. Which is why a lot of people were baffled at Nikon’s answer to the mirrorless compact system camera trend. (Sony NEX, Olympus Pen, Panasonic GF, Samsung NX) Being the imaging giants that they are, they were expected to try and maintain a larger sensor [...]

  Looks like Canon is gearing up for another 3-day sale at Tiendesitas next weekend, and you might be able to snag some cameras (or printers) there at discounted prices.
