by Jodie Tyley
on 22nd Oct 2010
Once you’ve bought your new camera, the next logical purchase is a case to keep it safe in. What style of bag you opt for will be decided largely by the style of camera you have bought. For a large DSLR and lens set up, chances are you will need a backpack or messenger style bag. For those who’ve chosen a compact camera though, the choices are endless – with small slip cases and hipster pouches galore. This bag from Orkio is uber-stylish with a trendy pattern adorning the fr

Samsung Memory Cards
by Rosie Tanner
on 5th Oct 2010
As far as memory cards go, you’d be forgiven for believing that one brand is much the same as the next. Choose the type of card your camera requires (CompactFlash, SD, SDHC, etc) and the size your need, and there your choices end.
However the new line up of memory cards from Samsung offer photographers something a little different. For a start, each memory card comes with a 5 or 10 year warranty – something that is sure to give photographers a little peace of

Kodak ESP 7250 All-in-one Printer review
by Rosie Tanner
on 24th Sep 2010
Pull this Kodak all in one printer out of its box and you might be surprised by the hefty foot print it leaves. Housing a scanner and copier bed on top of the unit, and a printer at the bottom, the reason for the large scale of the printer is clear.
Setting up the unit takes just a few printers. Plug the 7250 in, power it up, place the print head and two cartridges (one black and one colour) and you’re ready to go. You can connect the printer to a network via the Et

ThinkTank Photo Airport TakeOff
by Josie Reavely
on 7th Sep 2010
This innovative product is no ordinary photography bag. A clever combination of a backpack and a rolling case, the Airport TakeOff marries the best of both worlds to create something that’s highly practical and versatile.
Its unassuming exterior disguises its true function, with a sleek black finish and discreet styling that makes it appear like any other suitcase. Inside, however, there is plenty of space for all of your camera gear and more. The interior can be customised, using t

Ricoh VF-2 Viewfinder
by Josie Reavely
on 7th Sep 2010
The VF-2 is designed to offer an alternative to shooting with the GXR’s LCD. The biggest design asset is the ability to tilt through 90 degrees, allowing the user to shoot from angles that would be impossible using the LCD alone.
Constructed from solid plastic, the VF-2 feels robust and comfortable to use, thanks to a large rubberised cup surrounding the viewfinder window. Being an EVF (electronic viewfinder) the image quality cannot compare to that of an optical viewfinder on a DSL
