Here are a few samples I took today.

For $1.99, this application is a steal. You get a starter pack of the John S Lens, the Jimmy Lens, the Standard Flash, Ina’s 1969 Film, and Kodot Verichrome Film. And for an additional $0.99, you can purchase some of the booster packs which contain more lenses, flashes and film.

All in all, you spend less than $5.00 for a kick-ass camera application with an old-school feel in this digital age. I would definitely recommend this app for photography fans.

In the mail, the ad said you can make use of their Explorer XT (a portable power supply for studio flash), Air Blower, Battery operated fog/smoke machine and .Studio Flash (1 Hensel, 1 Profoto, 1 EL BXRI, 1 EL Dlite 4).

Of course, the use of the equipment doesn’t come without a catch — albeit a simple request. In exchange for the free use of the equipment, Tronix requests that they be provided access to document your shoot (via video), as well as use of a few images captured from the said shoot. A fair trade, if you ask me.

And for the extremely particular photographer, they even protect your interest by stating that “For ad campaign shoots or magazine shoots, we can post the images/videos after ad launching or magazine release date”.

You can check out the Tronix blog for a full list of their equipment, as well as find out more on their promo.

Interested parties can send their photoshoot details and request Tronix equipment needed to Sheryll Francisco via email at safrancisco@innovatronix.com or innovatronix.inc@gmail.com or call 645-1598 / 645-1592 / 0918-4317932.

Sony is taking the digital imaging technology to the next level with its introduction of the new Cyber-shot TX1 and Party-shot accessory. Taking great photos under various situations has never been this exciting and fun.

Submit your favorite bloggers under the Tech, Fashion, Travel and Food categories and get a chance to win a Sony Cyber-Shot.

Submission of nominees is from September 15 to 30, 2009.

Only the best will be captured on October 15, 2009.

It’s another attempt to build a database of bloggers by dangling a carrot in the guise of a digicam. But hey, who am I to complain. If I found myself in one of the categories, I would probably be submitting my blog too.

From the Jamon Serrano to the various cheeses to the 2 huge slabs of Roast Beef to the pastas to the endless Häagen-Dazs and free-flowing wine and champagne, I didn’t know where to begin and when to end. As a result, I only have a few photos to show for it. In fact, most of them were taken when there was no food around.

Of course, as the night wore down, our attention turned to the star of our gatherings, Pilar.

The video was made from 60,000 photos, 9,600 prints, 1,800 frames. Amazing.

Yes, I have drooled over numerous iPhone cases before (most recently the Griffin Clarifi — USD35, sold locally for PhP2,550), but this one really takes the cake.

The Factron iPhone case is a stylish, metal finished, old-school Leica-esque looking case with a complete set of interchangeable lenses — fish eye, wide-angle, and close-up lenses which can range from USD15 to USD55. However, the case itself is a hefty USD200. While it does cost quite a pretty penny, the possibilities with this toy are endless, especially for a iPhone photography freak like myself. But of course, I will have to continue drooling for a bit until someone gives me the case as a gift, or I win the lottery.

For now, check out some of the product photos, while I go buy a lotto ticket.

Here I am — midstride.

Yesterday, she introduced me to Type Drawing — a typography based iPhone application with lots of fun filled uses.

If you’re a fan of typography, this app may just be for you. Have fun creating your messages, create drawings using the font and do a hundred other stuff with it.

At the moment, the application offers a limited number of fonts, and a handful of backgrounds, but this should change, come more updates from the developers.

You can even take photos and add your message, as you see fit.

Update:

You can read about the Yehey Pandesal campaign in Malaya.
