One hand digital camera.

The designer Matthew Swinton came with an interesting idea:a digital camera that fits vertical in your hand (like a cellphone) and features an lcd projector that can present taken pictures or connect to other media devices to display photos or video.Digital camera like cell Phone

To use, the protective lens cover slides down. The camera is comfortable to hold on to, with the lens just peeking over the top of your hand. The top buttons can be set as the snap shot and mode or environment lighting selection buttons. These can be flipped for left or right handed use. The ports along the top allow Axis to be charged, instead of having to remove and replace batteries. Switch the mode button over to take, view or display pictures or video taken.

Samsung photo frame

Samsung will release sometime this year the 8-inch and 12-inch version of their new 800 x 480 pixel 7″ photo frames. These frames have Wi–Fi and will automatically search the computer for, photos, musics and videos via Window Media Player 11. I am not sure how this automatically thing it’s working, sound a little strange. Also, via RSS you cand view images from internet on these frames. All photo frames come with a 4-in-1 memory card reader and a USB port for cameras and portable storage devices.
Now, I like the ideea of a digital photo frame, I even have a “classic” photo frame where I can insert 25 10/15 photos and chose between the, but US$305 fo SPH-72P and $238for the SPH-72H it’t too much. I mean with 305$ i can buy the Minox DCC Leica M3 and the digital credit camera or the pen spy camera .
Still, I like the Samsung photo frame. So my friends, you know when my birthday is and you know what I like:dsamsung photo frame

Credit Card Digital Camera

Another nice gadget, cause it’s not a real camera if you look at his performances, it’s the credit card digital camera. You know I like strange gadget, even if they are kind of useless.
It has only 5mm thin, and 0.3megapixel, resolution which cannot provide quality, but this credit card camera does suit its intented purpose.
You cans store up to 26 high-resolution photos(1280×960), 209 low-resolution photos (640×480) or 40 seconds of video recording on his 64Mb onboard memory.
And finally, a real useful feature, it ne used as a PC webcam, through a USB cable.
I think the price is good, around $40.

Need photos coordinate?

A few posts before I was talking about Photomapia a place where you can see or share your photographs taken in your trip.
Now I am telling you about a very interesting little device for recording the position where photographs are taken.
It’s name is Sony GPS-CS1 GPS Unit kit.
GPS stand for Global Positioning System.
The GPS-CS1 is a small (9 cm / 3.5 in) cylindrical device which you simply attach to a backback or belt loop and carry with you while you shoot, it records your GPS location and this information can later be synchronized with your digital images to provide a map of where your photos were taken.

The compact GPS-CS1 weighs just 55g. Its power-efficient design allows up to 10 hours continuous use with a single alkaline cell (14 hours with Ni-MH battery). The unit can hold approximately one month of tracking data (in use for 12 hours/day).
