Sharp AQUOS Photo Player

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Misc. Tech,

Sharp has two new AQUOS devices, the HN-PP100 and HN-PP150. Each is a cross between a 300 x 300 dpi photo printer and memory card reader. Display your images on your TV in one of their slideshow options or print them. The Photo Player also has an IR receiver for sending those photos to the player as well as an HDMI output. Unfortunately, the player does not have HD capability and can only store the photos if you have a NAS and the HN-PP150 model.

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, HDTV, Internet,

MinoHD Pure Digital keeps cranking out those Flip Video cams. This time it is the MinoHD. This one records up to 60 minutes of high definition video with its 4GB memory. It also features a 1.5 anti-glare LCD display and has their new FlipShare software included. The camera is similar to their others with its flip-out USB arm and uploading to YouTube, MySpace, AOL video and email. At a cost of only $229.99, it weighs about 3 ozs. and can be custom designable for an extra charge. According to NPD, the company has sold over 1.5 million cameras since the launch last year. We believe it. We still love ours and never hesitate to tell anyone who will listen.

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Hot Deals, Misc. Tech, Music, Portable Audio / Video,

Not to be outdone by Target, Best Buy has a gift card that doubles as a speaker. Use it for your iPod, MP3 player, or any other with the mini-headphone jack. The card is available for $15.00 up to $50.00. Shipping is free, there is no expiration date and the card can be used online or in retail stores.

Record Your Voting Experience

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Smartphones, Editorial, Internet, Videos,

A little nervous about voting? We won’t mention the term “hanging chad” (oops) but poll experts suggest that you not only bring your ID with you but take a picture of your ballot as well. Video the Vote goes one step further and suggests you record your experience to share with other citizen journalists, indy filmmakers, and media pros. You can upload them on the site and they will cross post to YouTube. We would love to see them, too! Now get your butt out there and do your American duty!

Sharp Aquos Fulltough 931SH high-resolution mobile phone

Posted by Aaron Zollo Categories: Cameras, Smartphones, Handhelds, Portable Audio / Video, Wireless / WiFi,

The Japanese always manage to get the best cell phones first and we always hope they trickle over to the U.S. and the new Sharp Aquos Fulltouch 931SH is no exception to the rule. This new cell phone is an obvious response to the iPhone and its touch technology. The one thing that sets this cell phone apart is the incredible screen resolution of 1024 x 480, bringing it close to that of a netbook. The 931SH also incorporates a 5.2 megapixel camera with stabilizer technology, a 1seg TV tuner, Bluetooth with A2DP, an accelerometer, web browser, media player, a microSD slot and of course, a touch screen as the name implies. The phone also works on all 3G networks, making it viable for U.S. as well as world-wide consumption, although no time-frame has been mentioned.

LensCoat Lens Covers

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Misc. Tech,

LensCoat Hoodies Now that winter is coming on, keep your lens warm with a LensCoat Lens Cover. Made of closed-cell neoprene and a camouflage design to hide from critters, they come in a variety of styles and sizes. Each cover is waterproof and has a clear UV-PVC window over the controls and distance-scale window. Our fave has to be the Hoody, priced from $12.99 to $24.99. LensCoat also makes them for tripods and will customize covers for your equipment.

Easy Point and Shoot Digicam

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Hot Deals, Movies, USB,

Digicam Our fave wholesalers have come up with a new pocket-sized point and shoot 5 megapixel Digital Camera with 3-inch TFT LCD screen. With high res JPEG images and MPEG4 AVI video capability, it features easily adjustable settings such as red eye fix, white balance, and 3 burst shots. The cam is also PictBridge compatible and comes with a USB and AV cable combination and pouch. At a price of only $99.99, we can probably forgive its uncool chartreuse color.

MINOX Agent M Belt Camera

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Wearables, Portable Audio / Video, USB,

We figure that since most people don’t really peek at others’ belt buckles, the MINOX Agent M Belt Camera would be a fun accessory for any wannabe spy. At a length of 110 cm, it features r/t recording in 3GP video with a QCIF resolution of 176 x 144 pixels at 15fps. The cam supports digital voice recording, runs on a Li-ion battery and allows for storage up to 2 GB on Micro SD/T flash cards. At a price of €229.00 (~$299.00,) the belt comes with a USB cord and probably isn’t recommended for really short 007 types.

Novo Minoru 3D Webcam

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Misc. Tech, PC / Laptop,

Minoru 3D Webcam With the Minoru (which means “reality”) Webcam from Novo and a pair of glasses, you can see in 3D via Skype, Microsoft Live Messenger and other IMs. It apparently also makes 3D images and videos that can then be uploaded to social sites such as YouTube, although those wanting to see it will need glasses, too. Arriving in December at a price of $100.00, we figure that this is a bit overpriced and overcomplicated.
