Heading back to Los Angeles and the videos from PMA will be posted shortly. My dogs (=feet) were barking, but my back was better thanks to roller camera bag by ThinkTank. A full review on that bag will come later this week.

Main topics this year?

1.Power (keeping those electronics charged)
2.Point and Shoots ( everybody join in)
3.Super fast media cards ( 300x speed,8gig, UDMA and what exactly will it mean to you)
4 .HIgh end and low end, quality DSLR from your favorites. ( this is what you’ve been looking for)
5. Bags, bags, bags. (if you can’t find EXACTLY what you need in stores now, I….I….I don’t know what to say. There is every configuration and style available for your needs. With most photogs favorite lens becoming a 80-200 f2/8 or similar, the bag manufacturers listened. Plus LOTS more.)

Now with the burgeoning point and shoot market, came the answer to the need for smaller and smaller cases for these beauties.

That’ll be covered off in the reports also.

This was a huge show, 2 floors worth and as we said in an earlier post, this is where the people who sell to you come to shop.

So there was a lot of stuff that may not be of interest for you ( like photo kiosks that you see in Ritz).

But the majors were there showing off some great new photographic equipment and accessories.

And your sensor MUST be getting dirty because there were plenty of products to clean it
But you know the honest truth ? When you use one of these products you are not really cleaning the sensor buy the low pass filter in from of it. Feel better? I did.

So stay with us this week. We’re diving into hours of video to cut up into bite sized pieces for you to enjoy.
As we’ve said: Our true intent is all for your delight.

Cheer!
