Cool wind-reduction tip for compact cameras
I just found a link to a cool wind-reduction tip on this site: www.photojojo.com. Photojojo.com has many great tips and do it yourself photo projects.
Here’s a direct link to the tip on PopPhoto.com.
I haven’t tried it, but I have a compact Canon SD600 camera that is very similar, and I plan to test this the next time I film outdoors. I’m surprised at the quality of the sound that the small Canon cameras produce in video mode.

Fireworks Photography Tips Article
A few months ago, I contributed a number of fireworks photography tips for Tamron’s eViewfinder newsletter and Tamron’s online Learning Center. You can find the article here. With July 4th approaching, many people in the United States will certainly be watching fireworks displays.
Regardless of where you live, I hope that these tips inspire you to grab your tripod and get creative with the many options you have when photographing fireworks. Please be careful if you are planning to use fireworks; I recommend leaving it up to the pros–you’ll save money, and more importantly, you’ll have a far less chance of getting injured. I also interviewed two photographers in May for the newsletter. Those can be found by selecting Article 1 and Article 3 at the top of the page.
Enjoy the holiday!
Walt Mossberg To Review Apple iPhone on CNBC 1:30pm EST Wed 6/27
I just saw the announcement that Walt Mossberg, technology writer for the Wall Street Journal will review the Apple iPhone on CNBC 1:30pm EST Wed 6/27/2007. I’m primarily interested in the quality of the phone connection, audio quality when using Bluetooth devices, battery life when using Bluetooth, WiFi, etc., digital camera image quality, PDF viewing, and how well it can function as an “on-the-go” photo and video portfolio for photographers and other creative professionals.
I just came across this video on The Apple Phone Show, posted today. It’s difficult to say whether Mr. Mossberg will add any additional info. I assume his appearance on CNBC will be live. The Apple Phone Show site also has links to online reviews by Walt Mossberg and David Pogue, Technology Columnist from The New York Times.
iPhone related resources and news links from CNBC.com’s home page (www.cnbc.com)
My guess is that the video review will probably be posted here sometime today. (No, that’s not a YouTube link, but it’s always possible it will end up there too).

Good Q&A between Walt Mossberg and Apple, Inc. CEO Steve Jobs.
Very well-produced guided tour of the iPhone on Apple Inc.’s site.
The Apple Phone Show: An excellent blog and podcast that covers the Apple iPhone.
UPDATE Wed 5:30PM : This was a pretty good interview, though I found the written review by Walt Mossberg on the Wall St. Journal’s website to be far more comprehensive. I did learn from the review that Walt will probably be purchasing one (he has to return the one he tested), which is a good endorsement for Apple. I would like to know what the screen looked like after a few weeks of finger tapping and sliding.
