This is one of the most useful devices I have purchased for aiding my close-up photography. I use it to scan a close up scene and pick out objects or features that I want to photograph. It works exactly as advertized. This means that it can be used to view objects from much closer than is possible with conventional binoculars. Of course, it also doubles as the latter, too. Strongly recommended.

As a new butterfly enthusiast I needed a pair of close focusing binocular. The Pentax Papilio provided a light weight, easy to focus, and comfortable to carry binocular. Since I began using them my ability to see details was greatly enhanced.

This product is excellent value for bird watching and nature gazing. I'm very please with this purchase!



Capture Camera Clip System

The Capture Camera Clip System is a new way for active photographers to carry their camera - by rigidly clipping it to any strap or belt on your existing gear. The product consists of a compact, ultralight aluminum "chassis" that securely clamps down onto your belt, backpack strap, messenger bag strap, climbing harness, life vest, or other garments you already own. A small aluminum "camera connection plate" screws into the tripod mount on your camera. The plate allows your camera to slide and lock into the chassis, letting you securely carry your bulky SLR camera with ease. Furthermore, Capture keeps your camera readily accessible with it's "quick release lock." With the press of a button, you can slide your camera out of the chassis, snap a photo, and click it back into place. Whether you're hiking, biking, skiing, climbing mountains, or just snapping pictures at a family gathering, the versatility of Capture will revolutionize the way you transport and handle your camera.



It's a must have. Takes all the weight off your neck and shoulders. It's nice to secure it to your belt or backpack and not worry about your camera swinging around. I have had mine for a few weeks now and don't see a reason to go back to a shoulder strap. You will not be disappointed. Hooked to a T3i with 18 - 270 lens, works great.

When hiking I've always like to keep my camera readily available, that meant having it around my neck and swinging freely for miles at time. Sometimes the hike would get nasty and I'd have to rock scramble risking my camera swinging below my chest and potentially into a rock. Now with capture I just clip it to my backpack strap and it holds it securely and in reach for that ever elusive nature shot. I don't think there is a better camera accessory available.

Remote Shutter Release for Canon Rebel XT, XTi, XSi, XS, T1i, EOS 1000D/450D/400D/350D/300D, Pentax Super 




This shutter release does exactly what it is intended for. I am using it with a Canon XSi, and there are no problems of any kind. The cord is about 4ft, which is plenty long for pretty much any situation I would be in. Feels solidly constructed, and looks clean too!

This remote switch is a bit tricky at first. When I first used it most of the time I it would snap a shot immediately after focusing with a half press, rather than just auto-focus as it should. After playing around for a while I realized if you press the very bottom of the button you get a much better half-press auto-focus than pressing the button in the middle as you are used to. The cable itself is much thicker than the Canon brand, not a problem though. I bought this for my Canon EOS Rebel XT.
