Rent Compact > Micro 4/3 > Lenses > Telephoto. Carrying Things, Part 3: Carryology Studies How We Carry. To better understand what things we carry and how we carry them, Bellroy formed Carryology, a research arm dedicated to studying the various solutions we all use to move our stuff around.
Entries on the site, which is set up like a blog, run the gamut from what to look for in a carry-on bag to write-ups on backpack shapes and functions to articles highlighting positive trends in bag design. Topics are broken into the subcategories of Bags, Luggage, Wallets, Utility, and the more sociological Carry Culture. On that latter note, Carryology is not just a "Let us tell you all about bags" type of site; in addition to reporting their findings, they value community and solicit feedback, as they recently did with a socially important project we'll tell you about next.

HD) PANASONIC GF2 UNBOXING MUST SEE. Chilla Frilla - Sony a330 DSLR Camera Unboxing and Review (HD) 720p. Kyocera Echo Unboxing (Video) The Echo is a big deal for Sprint, Kyocera, and the entire smartphone industry.
For Sprint, they score yet another exclusive by offering the first dual-screened smartphone. For Kyocera, they’re entering the US market in a big way with a non-vanilla Android phone. And for the smartphone industry, they’re waiting and watching to see how consumers respond to having a multi-screened phone. Do two screens make sense, or are we talking about a mere novelty? That’s the question we hope to answer for you as we spend some quality time with the Kyocera Echo. The unboxing experience of the Echo was quite impressive, complete with a unique box and additional accessories not typically seen with a smartphone.
First impressions? The device is thick, heavy, and quite ugly, but the build quality seems to be pretty high. We’ve got a lot more coming up on the Echo, so stay tuned! “Leica M9.5″ – The Small But Excellent Panasonic GF1 by David Babsky.

Packaging - Canon’s Premier Prosumer Shooter Gets a Reboot. If you’re looking for a high performance camera with great image quality, you should get a digital SLR, right?
Well yes, DSLRs are top-drawer picture-takers. But they’re bulky and they weigh a ton.

Packaging - Sony Fights Micro Four-Thirds With Lens-Changing Compact. Quality cameras are about to get a whole lot smaller. Sony has revealed its plans for 2010, and alongside updates to the DSLR line comes a new interchangeable-lens compact to compete against the Micro Four Thirds format. Sony is using a larger APS-C sensor, the size seen in most DSLRs. The camera, which will come out under the Alpha brand used for its DSLRs, sits between the Olympus Pen and Panasonic GF1 — with their small bodies — and the Samsung NX10 with its larger sensor. Packaging - Olympus E-P1 Review: Field Test Report.
Peter Burian tests this 12.3 megapixel interchangeable-lens camera with HD Movie mode and a wealth of SLR-style features The first Olympus Micro Four Thirds system includes the E-P1 camera, two lenses, adapters for other types of lenses and a compact flash unit. In their promos for the 12.3 megapixel Olympus E-P1 camera, the company often referred to the heritage provided by their Pen series SLRs first introduced in 1959. That’s understandable, because the Pen models were unusually compact and featured classic styling. Those qualities also apply to the E-P1, available in a white or silver stainless steel body with silver or black (optional) lenses. That’s where the similarities end however, since the Pen SLRs were small format cameras, taking two photos on a single frame of 35mm film.
Inspired by the original Pen and Pen F half-frame 35mm cameras, the digital E-P1 shares classic styling and portability with its predecessors but employs a full size sensor and all of the latest technology. Packaging - Olympus E-P1 Review: 1. Introduction. Packaging - Olympus EP-1 Pen Gaining Fans Daily. Until a review unit arrives at Olympus’ Spanish PR Office (amazingly just around the corner from my apartment) I’m slurping up anything and everything I can find on the web about the EP-1, or digital Pen camera. And it’s not just journalistic professionalism, either: As an amateur photographer, I’m excited by a camera that could actually deliver on the promise of a compact digicam which works as well as an old film compact. Non-DSLR cameras have a few problems which make them a pain for anyone serious about their photos, and this is why I’m scouring the web: to find out if the Pen has solved them.
And the answers so far appear to be yes, yes and yes. First up is shutter lag. You’ll know it as the sluggish pause between hitting the button and the camera actually snapping a picture. The second problem with compacts is their tiny sensors. The other problem is focussing. Packaging - Olympus Chief: No More Four Thirds Lenses. Miquel Àngel García, head of Olympus Europe, has stated that his company will no longer make new Four Thirds lenses.
