Craig Ferguson is a well respected cultural photographer in Taiwan, his experience brings a measure of perspective to some basic camera equipment that we all could use. BLACKRAPID has become the camera strap of choice for pro’s and amatures alike. It brings both convenience and comfort to something that people just expect to be normal. The RS-5 is anything but normal. It has a special design allowing the camera to move along the strap, and yet hang comfortably. It has padding which stays in place, and extra pockets to keep all the trinkets you need when roaming around shooting pics. For more info check out Blackrapid.com

USB Vacuum Cleaner for those who have everything

Posted on October 30, 2009 by Peter du Preez

When you knock over something on your desk, and need to clean it up in a hurry, this mouse-like device which plugs into your USB port can suck up the dirt in no time at all. The device comes with usual vacuum cleaner add-on heads, so you can clean all those breadcrumbs and crusty bits which tend to gather around your keyboard and from between the keys. I’m not sure if its waterproof, so I would suggest that you don’t use it for fluids. You can find out more here: www.bsmcorp.com.tw
