Nikon Cameras Used in Space
OK so vie been a little off topic surrounding photography lately, (i warned you of the waffle) but today im back to photography, and my favourite brand. NIKON.
Many of you know me as a Nikon Fanboy of sorts but although I do see the benefits in other brands, my kit bag is now so full of Nikon stuff, im not likely to change.
When I see videos like this one I think im still firmly planted in the right camp.
If people like NASA trust Nikon Products, I think I can too.
Watch the video and learn how Nikon have been supporting the Space programs for many years now.

Data displaying mirror Technology
Ok Im a geek and I love my gadgets, but this is way cool.....
We are managing to fit information displays everywhere: televisions, phones, the fronts of refrigerators. It’s almost a race to identify locations around the house that are not displaying data to us so that wrong can be corrected. Well, you can cross the bathroom mirror off the list of unitasking flat surfaces.
The Cybertecture Mirror promises traditional reflectivity combined with data displays, both those keyed to personal health like weight and body mass index records, as well as general display tasks like weather, social networking, and video. The mirror is customizable with multiple user accounts maintained through a companion web site. It also comes with a sensor pad to gather the weight information mentioned earlier. And since it’s a light-generating display, it can even act as a simple self-illuminating mirror. It’s controlled through a television-style remote, or a smartphone app, your choice. The mirror/display is Internet-connected and measures 800 mm high by 500 mm wide, with a depth of 50 mm.
But all this comes at a bit of a cost. The mirror is priced at HK $60,000 or about $7,700 US. If that hasn’t scared you off, you’ll be able to pre-order one in December, with predicted availability in Summer of 2011.

Lexmark change the Rules in All-In-One Printer/scanner/copiers
Blogworld have many videos available of the stands, but as a photographer this new approach to scanning caught my eye.Not only have they changed the form factor of the all-in-one, but most notedly the way they scan. It amazes me nobody has done this before but it is a stroke of genius.
Gone are the days of scanning in older prints and waiting 30 seconds for your result to appear on screen.
This boasts a "scan" time of less than a second.
I'll Not give away too many details but let you watch the video and see for yourselves.
