The demand couldn’t be greater for high volume SDXC cards with professional DSLR cameras transitioning from from larger CompactFlash memory cards to SDXC cards. My camera is the Canon EOS 6D and, considering the space saved in moving to the smaller card, one might believe that two SDXC slots would have been an ideal trade-off.  Manufacturers recognize that media professionals …

We have received a few e-mails about a specific piece of hardware in one of our Test Benches so I thought I might post some pictures and my thoughts on it; it is the RocketU 1144C 4-Port USB 3.0 PCI-Express HBA.  Long story short, the 1144c increases my USB 3.0 count by four but it does so much more as …

Having just returned from a great trip to California, the first thing awaiting my return was a new Canon EF 100-400mm F/4.5F IS USM Zoom Lens, a lens ordered specifically for that trip and arriving a day late.

Camera buyer’s today have their task cut out for them.  Do I buy a simple compact or DSLR, Point and Shoot and what is a mirrorless camera anyway? The options and selection available simply can’t be rivaled so we thought we might tackle a camera review this morning that takes three of the most important features to be found in …

There is nothing better than latching on to a piece of technology that just makes sense.  In the case of today’s look at the Jaybird Bluebuds X Bluetooth headphones, the first question that came to mind was that of why I hadn’t grabbed a set of wireless headphones sooner.  After all, I have had headphone cords hanging from my ears …

Yesterday’s advanced camera and video realm has become the norm of today and with that, the consumer needs to carry a bit more knowledge on their shoulders.  Where any SD card might suffice for newer consumer media recorders of just a short time ago, today’s equipment shoots in 1080P video, over 40 megapixels and has brought such advanced features as …

One of the key components of a media professionals toolkit has to be the SD card and, with that, comes the need for performance and desire for capacity.  This need isn’t solely that of the media pro’s, however, as newer camera systems are including the ability to take pictures above 40 megapixels in size, as well as HD video unrivaled …

So Apple released their 2013 MacBook Air just over a week ago and, on the exterior, not a thing has changed.  Why should it?  It is no secret that one of the longest standing rivalries between Apple and Samsung is alive and well and, coincidentally, the two most attractive ultrabook designs are easily the MacBook Air and that of the …
