The Tekkeon battery packs i’m using can vary voltage from 5V-19V DC. You’ve probably seen me powering up the 600 /900 LED light panels and also the ASUS Wireless HD streaming WiCast.

07Nov Panasonic Announces GX1 and 3D1 Cameras
Tweet
You’ve probably heard the buzz around other websites that Panasonic officially announced their GX1 camera (wasn’t a big secret) along with another small 3D camera. Their previous GF2 and GF3 cameras were pretty much released one right after the other, and failed to appeal to a mass market. I have a feeling they’re missing the [...]

I’m sure many of you already know about this particular Velbon fluid head. It’s been a hit for a while now, and I thought it was finally time for me to test one out. As much as possible I love shooting with smaller cameras, and this fluid head was a great surprise. Works great as [...]

12Jun Free Standing Monopod – Audio / Light Stand
Tweet
Here’s a clever free standing Monopod that might be useful for more than just camera support. In the image they show a free standing DSLR with a long telephoto lens which is quite a bit of weight. Packs down to about 20 inches, much smaller and lighter than your basic light stand and with a [...]
31May Panasonic GH2 or GH1?
Tweet
While there are some Panasonic GH2 cameras available at current rip-off prices, the older GH1 is stepping back into the spotlight. Previous GH1 cameras with older firmware could be hacked into what was called the GH13 or GH1.3. The hacks provided more features than the standard GH1, which included higher video bitrates and additional [...]
30May C Mount Lens Tests on GF1
Tweet
I picked up the Panasonic GF2 camera lately because I wanted something small and really lightweight. Sure you can adapt Nikon or Canon lenses, but that took so much away from being ’small and lightweight’. An excellent solution for Sony NEX and Micro Four-Third cameras are to use CCTV or ‘C-Mount’ lenses. Here’s an excellent [...]

There isn’t much tooling required, it’s more of an assembly of readily available pieces [...]
19May Panasonic 20mm F/1.7 – In Stock
Tweet
If you’ve got a Panasonic GH2, or other Micro Four Thirds camera, you’ll know what this lens is. It’s been tough to track down lately when they went out of stock because it’s just that awesome for a MFT camera.
