Canon Photo 5 Competition 

My mystery box arrived today in the mail for the Photo 5 Canon competition. Whether I’ll get time to get all the shots remains to be seen since my wedding approaches, just under 2 weeks away. There are $50000 worth of prizes and you keep the copyright to your images so it would be insane not to enter.

And yes, $5000 would definitely go to the 5D mkii and a tasty new lens :)

Canon 5D MkII nearly here? 

Canon have launched a teaser site for a new camera on the horizon. Bets are down that it’s a 5D replacement model. We’ll find out soon.

I bought my 5D not too long ago at an insanely cheap price with a free Canon 80Gb storage device. I would expect a significant improvement to justify an upgrade.

RIP Don LaFontaine 

Don LaFontaine, the man who MADE movie trailers, passed away on Monday. I can’t image trailers will ever be the same :(

• • New M. Ward Solo LP

    Didn't absolutely love She and Him but loved Post-War. His solo record is entitled Hold Time, out Feb 2009. Via Paste.

  • T-Mobile G1

    Not as nice as the iPhone. Running Google's open-source mobile OS Android.

  • TV On The Radio

    Dear Science is indeed excellent. Never a huge fan before but this album is excellent.

  • True Blood is a true stinker

    I just watched the pilot episode of HBO's True Blood, written and directed by Alan Ball (of Six Feet Under and American Beauty fame). Terrible effort. Acting is atrocious, direction is uneven and unsatisfying and there's absolutely nothing to hook you in. I'll be giving this series a miss.

  • Burn After Reading Reviews

    Hrmmmm the new Coen Bros film gets 48/100 on Metacritic.com but 73% on Rotten Tomatoes. Guess I'll have to see this one for myself to judge.

  • Google Chrome

    It's fast, very lightweight and only available for PC at the moment. But will it topple IE or Firefox?

  • Canon 50D

    Seems like it's real. 15MP of fun :)

  • Best Online Media Converter

    The best online video converter I've found! Greatest results for youtube conversions come from converting to the .flv video format first and then use another converter to get it to .mov or .mp4 (H264).

  • Transport Expert says 'Fire Connex'

    I couldn't agree more with this. Everyone in Melbourne knows how bad they are. Let's fire them and ensure this kind of thing happens with a new service too.

  • Death Cab For Cutie @ The Palace

    Went to this last night. A great show. They played a lot of older material much to the delight of Lyndsay and myself (plenty of stuff off Transatlanticism :) ) No camera though :(
