It’s been over a year since I first received my Canon 1D mkIV and you’ve probably read my previous blog entries about it. I’d previously owned 1D mkII, 1D mkIIn and 1D mkIII bodies and it’s fair to say that Canon has pulled out all the stops with it’s 1D mkIV body. But, there’s a catch.. Continue reading

After years of trying to convince Sally that she needed I website, she woke me up during the night and announced that the time had now come to turn over a new leaf, get fitter/healthier and have her own website. Quite why she had to wake me up at 3am to tell me this, only she knows I guess. Continue reading

As you may of noticed if you’re reading this article, it’s been a while since we last posted anything on this website.
After much thought, we’ve decided to change our approach and combine the latest technology news/press releases with hands on previews/reviews of technology we’ve been lucky enough to try (and not necessarily own). Continue reading
iPhone 3GS
As you know, both Sally and myself are users of the great but rather expensive iPhone 3GS. We’ve been using the iPhone 3GS since the beginning of 2010, with us previously using the brilliant iPhone 3G. The only problems till this week have mainly consisted of various software bugs, O2 network quirkiness and user error. All that changed this week when Sally started to have couple of problems with her iPhone 3GS. Continue reading

Since buying my first digital camera, the bulk of all the pictures I’ve taken have been stored on Compact Flash Cards. Does this make me an expert on Compact Flash Cards? Maybe, and I’ve got a few observations to share with you. Continue reading

Its now been around 6 months since I took the plunge and bought a very costly Canon 1D mkIV. Between Sally and myself, we’d had numerous problems with our Canon 1D mkIII bodies, so I’m guessing you’re wondering how things are going with the Canon 1D mkIV and whether we’ve bought another one yet
It was a damp Monday morning and I was looking for some cheap speakers for a relative who was going to university. The kind of thing I was after consisted of an active subwoofer and some small satellite speakers, which could easily be hooked up to a PC or iPod, and wouldn’t really mater if it got destroyed in a wild student party (but still had to sound good as I was associated with the specification and purchase). I’d been going round and round in circles and eventually ended up looking on eBay of all places. Continue reading
It’s now been well over the a year since I switched from using a Yamaha AV amplifier, after years of trouble free operation. The reason for switching to Onkyo wasn’t due to failure of the Yamaha, but more to do with lack of features. The one feature the big old Yamaha DSP-AX2 was missing wasn’t even sound related either, so let me explain. Continue reading
Going back a few years, I was having problems with my internet connection. It would work fine when only I wanted to use the internet, but when more than one person wanted access, things would grind to a halt. If was uploading photos, downloading files at the same time wasn’t possible. The speed of my Broadband connection wasn’t the issue as we recieved the maximum possible of 8mbps download and 0.5mbps upload, so something else was causing the problem. Continue reading
