So basic
Review of Hama 4024 Mini Tripod by
NotMyToothbrush
Advantages: Level shots, Bendy legs for gripping onto complex structures, fast setup
Disadvantages: Poor grip everywhere
This is most probably the most basic tri-pod you can possibly find. it consists of a screw top and plastic legs which slightly deform to give you the desired angle/height.
I got this tri-pod before my current gorilla tri-pod for my pocket camcorder. I l ...

Expensive for a battery
Review of GoPro GoPro - Camera battery Li-Ion 1100 mAh - for HD HERO, HD HERO2 by
Chrisheels
Advantages: Well made, useful
Disadvantages: expensive

I don't understand the hype
Review of Joby Gorillapod SLR Tripod by
NotMyToothbrush
Advantages: Cheap, good rubber, grips to anything
Disadvantages: Brittle plastic, Difficult to straighten legs, can't get a level shot
I got this off of amazon for a ridiculously low price; £1 or something like that with free shipping - I don't know how they manage to make a profit!
The tripod itself is made of plastic with rubber bands across each of the ball joints to aid grip when t ...

A travelling photographers friend
Review of Velbon CX Series CX-460 MINI Tripod by
LordBongo
Advantages: Light, strong and portable
Disadvantages: None, unless you need the height of a full size tripod.
I got this before a trip to Australia last Christmas as I didn't really relish the thought of taking my full size tripod all that way and then having to lug it around the various places we visited. Bought lightly used from a local camera shop in Farnboro ...

My Heavy Friend Who Drags me Down
I love my DSLR camera with a great passion but it’s fair to say that when I’ve been carrying it around all day, it really does start to weigh me down. It’s a Sony alpha 330 and it's by no means a particularly heavy ...

Nice neoprene
Review of Crumpler The PP55 Case Digital photo camera by
RosesAreRed1207
Advantages: great material
Disadvantages: more colours?
When you spend a lot of money on a nice camera, you will need a nice case to keep it in. I was disappointed with the lack of camera case in the pack when I bought my camera, so I went and bought a little wallet for it, when I saw this case for sale in com ...

Review of Fujifilm LH-X100 by
sghawken
Advantages: Protects your camera, and adds value to your photographs
Disadvantages: Has some slight irritations.
The Fujifilm X100 is a piece of amazing camera technology, but like every camera it’s not without it’s flaws. To prevent damage to the lens, and rogue beams of light it’s always best to have a lens hood.
This Lens hood constructed by JJC comes with both ...
