Blue Planet Photography - Art From Earth

I'm a professional photographer and this blog generally contains information about photography. But, since I also spent part of my life as a wildlife biologist, there will be some items about the environment as well. Maybe even some irritable ramblings.

Three interesting products

I haven't tried these, but they look interesting.

1. Kanguru Zipper Pro (website) is a 1GB - 40GB hard drive (probably a laptop hard drive) in an aluminum case with a folding USB 2.0 port that plugs directly into your computer. Stated to withstand 1500G's of shock force, it's advertised to be durable. Small enough to fit into a shirt pocket or camera bag, it's not for downloading flash cards in the field, but could be used for quick and dirty transport of a website, image portfolio, slide show, etc. Price ranges from $49.95 for the 1GB version to $229.95 for 40GB of storage.

2. Picaholic flash website creator (website) is a web-based website or photo gallery creator using Flash. It's all done online, no software to download, and several templates are available. $100 set up fee and starting at $15/month (currenltly, the setup is $50). Free 7-day free trial and 30-day money back guarantee.

3. TrekPod hiking staff monopod (with tripod leg support) (website) uses a unique MagMount ballhead that provides magnetic quick-release that can be positioned at any angle. A cork palm rest covers the MagMount for use when hiking. The TrekPod extends from 43 to 58 inches in tripod mode and 46.5 to 62 inches in hiking staff/monopod mode. It weighs just 30 ounces including the MagMount. Estimated price: $139
