Samsung NX10 Hybrid Camera

31 August, 2010 (20:29) | Gear Guide, general | By: Diarmuid

At first glance the Samsung NX10 looks just like a DSLR…just about. It is slightly smaller then a DSLR but this isn’t the sole reason for this camera being classed as non DSLR. The main reason why this camera is classed as a Hybrid is because of the way the image is viewed through the [...]

13 June, 2010 (19:55) | Gear Guide, newsletter | By: Diarmuid

Photoshop is the standard from which all other image editing programs are measured. You’d wonder how improvements can be continually made to such a substantial program as this but Adobe always seem to find ways.
Some criticism has been made to the lack of new and improved features with some previous versions of Photoshop CS. However [...]

The amount of new DSLR cameras that come out is a steady stream to say the least. Canon are no strangers to marketing new upgraded models while the previous model hasn’t even left a dust ring on the store shelf. However with the Canon EOS 550D, there are some very good improvements and upgrades.

Last year I took a trip to New York. It is probably one of the most photographed cities in the world. However there is always the chance there to take a photo which is entirely different and new.
