More brilliance from sony.

Advantages: Brilliant battery life, looksa and size
Disadvantages: Probarably don't need a spare

...This battery came with the Sony Cybershot DSC-W55 and i have been using it for about 2 months and have not found a fault with it. It came free with the Camera (Amazom £139) but it can be bought separately for around £20. The battery charges up through a charger which plugs to a normal plug socket and takes around 4hrs depending on how charged the battery is. I got this charger with the camera and you should get it with any sony camera you get. The ...
...replacement but i have not found a need for one. I recently took just one battery on a 10 day holiday to Italy and found that the battery lasted all holiday, taking in excess of 200 pictures, and it was not dry at the end of it. As for the size of it, it is only 35mmx41mmx8 mm and weighes a megre 300g. This size not only means that the camera is that much more compact but also a spare is very easy to transport as is the charger. I know that it gets ...

Review of Sony NP BG1 Lithium Ion

Steadfast, loyal and true!!

Advantages: Reasonably priced, portable but very sturdy!
Disadvantages: could do with reaching just a few more inches at full height.

...photography too, starting with the Sony VCT-R640 tripod. Although this tripod is nowhere near top of the range it does pretty much everything you would expect of it and at a great price. Sony products are always of high quality and this tripod is no different. It can be used for still imaging cameras or video cameras as long as they do not exceed 3Kg in weight which unless you are using top end professional cameras with huge lenses they will not. ...
...what you are filming. The Sony VCT-R640 tripod comes with a quick release mounting shoe which means the camera can be removed and replaced on the tripod very quickly without it having to be unscrewed each time, simply screw the camera to the fitting shoe then attach the shoe to the tripod with one click and remove when needed and replace with simple one click motions. At its lowest height this tripod stands around 21 inches stretching to a massive ...

Review of Sony VCT 1170RM Tripod

Good quality video light

Advantages: Sony reliability, strong light
Disadvantages: Power hungry

A video light that delivers either 10w or 20w, as you would expect it's a little power hungry but if like me you use NP-F950 batteries in your cameras, this takes the same size and so is not a problem. It also takes NP-F330/530/550/750 but if you want to use it in 20w mode i would recommend the NP-750 or higher. It fits onto any accessory shoe on any camera and throws a good light. I use it at weddings where its not practical to set up studio lights ...
...tend to use 10w and for wider shots the 20w. Both can be a little harsh on faces and can cause people to squint, even though the light is diffused. You can diffuse it further with some tissue paper which gives a nice soft light. A good well made light that has it's place for the amateur or semi pro. Recommended. ...

Review of Sony HVL 20DW2 Video light Colour: Black

It's a tripod Jim, but not as we know it..

Advantages: Lightweight (325g), compact, extremely flexible, rugged, inexpensive, attaches to almost anything!
Disadvantages: Only works with genuinely compact cameras

The Joby Gorillapod - goes where no other tripod dares to tread Introduction When you say the word 'tripod' it conjures up a certain image, those three-legged extendable pole accessories which Grandad always insisted on getting down from the loft religiously every Christmas to take the obligatory 'group family photo' (in which no one would ever all smile at the same time, ever). Rusty, wobbly, stiff, rigid and rarely a better solution than ...
...This is where the Joby Gorillapod comes in, and what an entrance it makes! Design Genuine innovation doesn't just take an old idea and refine it or improve on it, genuine innovation goes right back to the drawing board and totally rethinks the original problem and comes up with a totally new way to solve it. And that's exactly what the good people at Joby did with this unasuming, yet intensely practical gadget. Yes, it's a tripod in the technical ...
