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 and it serves its purpose well. For close ups i 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

handy little video light

Advantages: small, auto mode, no battery required
Disadvantages: low power, needs compatible camcorder

...A small video light that is great for use with Sony cameras fitted with a 'Hot Shoe' not too much power - 3w but it is just the thing for when the light is just fading. Being a 'Hot Shoe' accessory means that it takes its power from the camcorders battery. So check your model before ordering one of these. It will not work independently!!! It's best feature is that it has an Auto setting, which means, slide the switch to the auto setting and the light will only come on when it gets dark. you can of course switch the light on manually as well. Tiny in size approx 2" or 4cm it takes up no room at all. A handy little light that has its uses, though probably not for serious enthusiasts....

Ipod nano v3 video

Advantages: Everything, good sound, good picture quality, good battery life
Disadvantages: Its quite pricey but worth the money

...and gives a very good picture. I was amazed when I watched a video on it the picture was actually better than my TVs. Battery The battery can last up to 24 hours it goes quicker the louder you listen to it, the more games you play on it and when you watch videos. Price The iPods start from £99.99 for a 4 GB version and for the 8 GB version it costs £129.99 the iPod is excellent values for money and you can't really fault it. Recommendation I would defiantly recommend this to any potential buyers it's a really good, easy to use mp3 player. Which has many features that other mp3s don't have such as the ability to play and download games and videos. It also has a decent screen size and quality. This ipod is a definate must....

Review of Apple iPod Nano video 8GB Third Generation

iPod Nano Video reveiw, Great new look

Advantages: Plays videos, music and views photos and high quality.
Disadvantages: Not easy to get video to a Ipod compatible format quickly.

...This is a ipod nano. It is great beacuse of the size. It fits easily in my pocket, about the size of a credit card. The main appeal of this ipod is the video feature. The screen is 5.5cm from corner to corner but it has a great picture and the soud is floorless. It can fit quite alot of video before it is full. I have a few full films on it but its still not full. Another new thing for this ipod is the cover flow feture. Great new way to look for a song on your ipod. However it is hard to get artwork for each song. Unless you have an itunes account and even if you do it doesnt always reconise a song. A let down for me is that you cant really add music or remove it without the Itunes program. But this is the same with all iPods ( you can still use other programs but they dont always work) Sleak new look and size makes this...

Official Wii Component Video Cable

Advantages: Far better picture than standard composite, better looking games
Disadvantages: Expensive, Only needed for larger screens 32" or greater

...After the release of the little white bundle of joy on the 8/12/2006 people were given a composite cable to show off their new shinny new console. AV enthusiasts all know a composite signal is the poor quality option for showing video on their TV's - what people really want is RGB or Component video input. As console manufactures are out to make a profit they usually bundle the cheapest and most compatible option with the console and then release upgrades to that product for people who need or want it. Nintendo understand this and have released two video upgrade options - the Wii RGB cable or the Wii Component cable. Lets get things straight from the off, The Nintendo Wii is not a High Definition Console, What this cable does offer is a enhanced image resolution of 480p. I finally got hold of the component video cable after...

Review of Garnier Multi-Lights Kit

LIGHT ENTERTAINMENT!

Advantages: Atmospheric story, great acting and good quality DVD.
Disadvantages: Not as many Special Features and a slightly confused plot.

...selecting buttons from the Interactive menu in a ?secret? order. This time the Easter Egg (and there is just one this time) is a little more disappointing than usual. I won?t give it away, but I?ll just tell you that it isn?t really worth the effort! ~~~WHAT I THOUGHT. Ghost Light had the potential to be a really great story. As it is, it is a GOOD story that would have benefited from certain aspects being explained a little better. It has atmosphere, melodrama and a lot of mystery. The sound and picture quality is as crisp and clear as I have come to expect. In fact we dug out our old video recording of it to compare and were surprised how flat and dull the old version was. Special Feature wise, there isn?t quite as much on offer as in some releases, but there is still enough material to interest fans of the series and to...

Review of Doctor Who - Ghost Light (DVD)

Illuminating the Night with Light in Style

Advantages: Powerful, lightweight, highly practical, stylish and excellent value for money.
Disadvantages: A bit too strong. Struggles with thicker books.

...INTRODUCTION On Thursday, 12th November one of my most epic searches finally came to and end in the most unlikely of locations. In the Christmas stocking filler section of our local garden centre, nestled amongst other little gadgets and gizmos, I found ?The Really Tiny Book Light?. Let me get something straight from the get go ? it wasn?t as if I was searching for something perfect ? I just wanted a serviceable book light to allow me to read at night when my wife preferred to go to sleep. However, my quest for a reliable book light stretches back three Christmases and two birthdays and I have a pile of rejects and failures that would justify a car boot sale table all by themselves. So it was with a mixture of excitement and trepidation that I took this little gadget to the cash desk, hoping it would finally turn out to be ?the...

Review of If The Really Tiny Book Light

kraft philadelphia xtra light

Advantages: Low Fat
Disadvantages: Negligible fiber content.

...philadeplphia extra light was founded by a American milkman by back in 1872, which is a long time ago, I am really suprised the Kraft company make a time line story about this. I am sure most people are familiar with the kraft Philadelphia Television advert from a few years ago which I will not bother talking about in too great detail as it showed a beautiful female sitting down on a Sun Bed ouside on a warm summer's day looking to enjoy herself by eating the original version of Philadelphia spread. So here I am now reviewing kraft's extra Light Spread. I am thinking to myself, what would the Television advert look like now. This part of the opinion is where it shall end. The Product itself was launched in 2001 with less than six per cent fat content inside. Today it contains four point seven grams of fat. Basic ingredients...

Review of Kraft Philadelphia Extra Light

Video Nasties

Advantages: Friendly atmosphere, staff discount
Disadvantages: Very few other staff benefits

...I've been working part-time at Choices Video in my home town since September 2001, and I have to say that, most of the time, I really do enjoy my job. The people are friendly, it's quite flexible, but the pitfalls are a real pain sometimes. BACKGROUND ------------------------- Choices Video is part of the Home Entertainment Corporation, which aside from video rental shops also distributes rental products to local shops such as Alldays and independant ones. They have their own film distribution arm, Mosaic Entertainment, which buys rights to video and dvd of films. HEC was founded in 1985, and the first Choices Video rental store was opened in 1986. There are now 213 branches in the UK. WHERE I WORK -------------------------- I work in the smaller Ipswich branch of Choices (there are two). We're situated in a row of shops...
