AgfaPhoto’s latest DC-600uw waterproof and rugged camera is severely handicapped in the looks department and it doesn’t even have an impressive feature set to make up for it . In fact, this camera is pretty average all around and the way it presents itself makes me think that it’s nothing more than a toy I can find at Yung Kee — in the water toys section. Seriously, this thing looks like it would squirt water as a trick.

Dear Photographer is a fun poke at some of the things photographers and people with cameras do from time to time with their photos. I’m definitely guilty of some of several items on this list, but I’m glad I don’t own a fog filter. :P

Every person who has access to a camera must go and read Ivars Gravlejs’ list of useful advice for photographers. It’s hilarious and there’s actually not that much reading to do (it’s mostly pictures).

Photo: Voltron Star Shooter by John Kratz on Flickr
This item combines two of my favorite things in life — robots and cameras — into one amazing thing. The Voltron Star Shooter is an actual working camera that transforms into Voltron with just a few flicks of the wrist. While the SLR lens is fake, the camera does in fact shoot 110 film.
Thanks Bommy!

Biking with 5D Mark II from Sam Javanrouh on Vimeo.
Sam Javanrouh took his Canon 5D Mark II for a ride on his bicycle and recorded the whole ride with a Sigma 12-24mm lens at 12mm. I probably wouldn’t recommend doing what he did, but I won’t deny that the video is kinda neat. But of course, you can do this with one of those new compact digitals that shoot HD video so maybe this was sort of an unnecessary risk. :P
