In May I gave a talk for LUV about the basics of creating video on Linux. As part of the research for that I investigated which cameras were good for such use. I determined that 720p was a good enough resolution, as nothing that does 1080p was affordable and 1080i is lower quality. One thing [...]

The discussion in the comments on my post about a mobile phone for Sysadmin use [1] turned to the issue of picture quality. This is an issue for a sysadmin as photographing the screen of a crashed computer while being a rare occurrence can be an important part of solving a computer problem. Lon recommended [...] I’ve just been asked for advice on buying a digital camera. I’m not an expert on cameras but I have a good general knowledge of technology – and I’m sure that the readers of my blog will correct me rapidly if I make any serious mistakes. ;) Types of Camera The Wikipedia Page about Digital [...] November 23rd, 2010 | Tags: camera, Most Popular | Category: Review | 4 comments - (Comments are closed) My telco Three have just offered me a deal on getting a new phone a couple of months earlier than my contract was supposed to expire, presumably they have some competition and want to get me locked into another 2 year contract a couple of months before anyone else has the chance. My current phone [...] November 17th, 2010 | Tags: camera, Most Popular | Category: Review | 21 comments - (Comments are closed) My phone contract ends in a few months, so I’m looking at getting a new Android phone. I want a big Android phone (in both physical size and resolution) that has a physical keyboard, a digital compass, A-GPS and at least a 5MP camera with geo-tagging. I want to be able to read PDF files [...] October 8th, 2010 | Tags: camera, Most Popular | Category: Review | 18 comments - (Comments are closed) I’ve just done some quick research on Digital Video Cameras for some relatives. It seems to me that the main feature that is necessary is Full HD (1920*1080) resolution as everyone seems to be getting 1920*1080 resolution monitors (getting smaller doesn’t save enough money to be worth-while). Resolutions higher than 1920*1080 will probably available in [...] July 20th, 2010 | Tags: camera, Most Popular | Category: Review | 9 comments - (Comments are closed) Based on my experience testing the IBM Seer software on an Android phone [1] I have been considering what type of mobile phone to get when my current contract expires. Here are the features above what is common in current smart phones that I think most people will sorely miss if they don’t have them [...] January 31st, 2010 | Tags: camera, Most Popular | Category: Misc Computer | 9 comments - (Comments are closed) On Monday the 25th of January 2010 I visited the Australian Open [1] – it’s one of the world’s greatest tennis championships and it’s on in Melbourne right now. IBM sponsored my visit to show me the computer technology that they use to run the event and display the results to the world via their [...] January 27th, 2010 | Tags: camera, insight10, Most Popular | Category: Networking | 3 comments - (Comments are closed) In the past I have had parents ask for advice on buying a digital camera for a young child. For some years there have been digital cameras on sale for much less than $100 – cheap enough that no-one will be THAT bothered if the child breaks it, so digital photography is a good hobby [...] January 25th, 2010 | Tags: camera, Most Popular | Category: Misc Computer | 4 comments - (Comments are closed) I have just got a LG U990 “Viewty” mobile phone [1]. It’s a 3G phone and came free on the $29 monthly cap plan from “Three” (minimum monthly spend is $29 – but this is free if you use $29 per month). My previous plan was the $29 cap but had a minimum spend [...] |
