My first impressions of the E-M1 against the E-M5 after several days of use! The E-M1’s overall ergonomics and handling surpasses the E-M5, easily. The handgrip makes it easier to balance the camera’s weight against mid-length zooms, and the two
I wonder sometimes if I suffer from minor GAS – Gear Acquisition Syndrome – a descriptor used among photography enthusiasts who love their photographic hardware as much, if not more, than taking pictures. I do take a lot of pictures
I’ve owned and used almost every one of the Samsung Galaxy Note phablets, with the exception of the Note 4 that was released to retail last year in October. The Note 3 was picked up when I renewed my telco

The Plugable UD3000 arrived from Amazon export sales late last week, just a shade under a fortnight after placement of order. I couldn’t find a local reseller for this (for the most part) well-reviewed USB 3.0 docking station, and the
My follow-up post to the SP3 and XPS13 after having put both through two and one weeks of respective use. My initial intentions for both devices were to leave the SP3 at home and for the XPS13 to be the
The Dell XPS 13 (2015) finally arrived yesterday afternoon – 2 days after the initial projected delivery date. I’m not absolutely certain of the reason for the delay in assembly, but from what I’m reading on online forums about others
