You may think that this is just a folding Golfmate chair, but it is also a camera stabilizing device. If I sit on it and adjust my monopod leg to just reach the ground, it can be a lot steadier, ...

If all 7.6 billion of us decided to return to our roots in that way, most of the wildlife of the planet would be exterminated within a week. Hunting and sport fishing is an elite activity, that ...

I can't tell you the grade of the steel I used. It all comes from scraps I find or are given to me. The toughness of turning the tap, is my basis for regarding it as hard. I'll have to get some ...

ANAYV, I've seen some drill-size charts for tapping threads that indicate 5/16" for tapping 3/8" threads, but I've found that with the hard steel I use for my adapter blocks, that 21/64" is ...

How much would it cost them to put larger memory buffers in these cameras?  Probably about one dollar or so. So many great designs get sabotaged by the bean-counters in the finance divisions of ...

I can't see any point to this slightly changed model. There's just the old 400mm lens and still no 60p for 4K video. You can buy the original FZ1000 for under $500. now.

Tech Pond has changed that prediction recently, to show a $1,999. price, rather than their previous speculation of $2,499. If the camera actually did have a 1,200mm lens, I'd expect the higher ...

Maybe Sony and their lens-making partners have made a breakthrough, regarding lens size and magnification power?  Maybe they have invented a new 2/3-inch type sensor that performs as well as a ...

Richard, what are the specs of the card you've been using? How long does it take the P1000 to process photos during burst mode?

Maybe you moved the mode dial into one where those settings can't be changed manually?

The photos can be seen in full-screen by clicking on the + symbol. The quality of the samples is mainly good and better than most of what is online from this camera.

I had an expensive Sony camcorder with built-in ND filters, which is something I never use. But the camera constantly nagged you to turn them on and you couldn't turn that feature off. Their is a ...

With 7.5 billion of us and more coming all the time, what is the need for fake people? You could hire a real person to pose for less money than the cost of generating a false image. The same is...

I know that some of the people I encounter in my dreams, have never been known to me when I was conscious. Often, they have names. Familiar people also are in my dreams, but I don't think any of...

No need for actors and actresses in the movie industry. Full-motion avatars that have unique ways of walking and talking, could be made to do anything. Fan clubs would form around these stars that...

I'm hopeful that the B700 may be updated with a new model soon, of the same smaller size and medium-long lens reach. And how could they leave off a mike input? With the latest processor and other ...

Now if the B700 just had a mike input, the zoom would be all I'd want and the much lower price and lighter weight would seal the deal. If you don't need an external mike for video, I'd stick with ...

Jeff Keller is No. 1 as a camera reviewer in my estimation. But I think he should have an opportunity to retract this review and do it again. The score of 73 is not even close to being accurate as...

I knew quite a few of that sort of people, when I was a kid. I was raised to be a hunter and fisherman, by parents who grew up in remote areas, in pioneer families. But when I finally reached ...

The one thing you can trust Auto ISO to do, is to raise the setting higher than you'd want, for the best quality. I always manually set the ISO to 100 in P mode and very sparingly raise it, when ...
