Taking photos of your pet over and over can become boring after the first 1000 shots or so. There’s only so many facial expressions most dogs make. But how about letting your dog be the photographer? The Wonderful Shot Dog Camera attaches to your dog’s collar, allowing your dog’s view to be your view. That makes us so happy.

The 3.5 MP camera can be either manned remotely or timed to take a shot every minute. With 8 MB of built in memory, you can send your dog off to the adventure which is your backyard, or into a local park for you urbanites. Photographers looking for that interesting shot to put on Flickr, might just catch it with the Takara Tomy designed Wonderful Shot. — Andrew Dobrow

Canon PowerShot A640 Reviewed

Filed under: Digital Cameras

LetsGoDigital has reviewed the Canon PowerShot A640 Digital Camera. The A640 is a 10 MP camera with a 4x optical zoom and is an addition to the Canon A-Series of cameras, which is geared towards reasonable price, accessibility, and high quality mechanics. Because of these goals the A-Series has become a popular line of camera among a broad spectrum of photographers and hobbyists.

The review describes how the A640’s tilting LCD display is a “definite advantage” over other companies models with similar specs. From the previous model of the A620, the resolution has been increased from its previous number of 7 MP and the LCD screen has been increased in size. The review is a complimentary one and even calls the A640 “beautiful” at one point.

In the conclusion the LetsGoDigital reviewer writes “There are still some things that could be improved upon. Take the noise ratio at 400 ISO and higher ISO settings. They are good for a ten Megapixel camera, but not totally clean.” While high ISO levels are clearly a needed tool for many, if you are a hobbyist looking for a camera to capture some great shots on the weekend, the A640 seems like a smart choice. — Andrew Dobrow
