Lenspen MiniPro, a Travel Sized Lens Cleaner

September 22, 2010 Stuart 2 Comments

I typically carry a full sized Lenspen in my camera bag, but a colleague recently turned me onto Lenspen’s MiniPro, a shorter more compact version. While space is hardly a concern for me, the Minipro would be great for others that have smaller camera, binocular, and equipment bags. As with other Lenspens, the MiniPro features a soft retractable […]

USB Digital Microscope Cameras

August 19, 2010 Stuart 1 Comment

For greater detail of very small objects, you’re going to need a digital microscope. Ordinary optical microscopes are fairly expensive, and those with digital cameras are even moreso, but there’s a growing […]

IZZE Sparkling Fruit Juice Water

August 18, 2010 Stuart Leave a Comment

I’m a HUGE fan of IZZE sparkingly fruit juice drinks. Not only do they taste great (at least most of the different flavors), I don’t feel bad drinking an IZZE since they’re mostly composed of fruit juice (70%).
