MindShift Gear’s rotation180 Panorama Rotating Backpack – a Review

A Post By: Jeff Guyer The rotation180 Panorama from MindShift Gear is designed around the needs of outdoor photographers. Last time I checked, I think I had something like 14 camera bags. I think it was when I got #8 or #9 that my wife asked me how many would be enough. I made the egregious mistake of replying with something along the lines of, “I don’t know.

While talking to reception, i saw the driver entering the impressive hotel lobby. What does he want here, i asked myself. The driver walked towards me; i wondered if any trouble lay ahead; the receptionists also looked askance at this simple local man who seemed not to be comfortable with the surroundings. The driver stepped up to me, nodded formally and dropped into my hand – my Ixus compact camera. I...

Lensbaby brings ‘Sweet Spot ‘ selective focus lens to iPhone

Lensbaby is well known among DSLR photographers for its array of special-effect lenses. Now the Portland, Oregon-based company wants to expand into mobile photography and has launched a Kickstarter project to fund the final development stage of its Lensbaby Sweet Spot lens.

It allows you to put the focus on one point of the image which is then surrounded by blur that becomes gradually stronger towards...
