I’m a huge fan of the Micro Four-Thirds format and I’m glad that its getting more widely accepted. I love my Lumix GX1 and I like having more options for lenses. I’m super happy that Panasonic has teamed up with Leica and I was really happy to buy the 25mm Lumix-Leica Summilux. I love large aperture lenses. Nokton has quite a number of large...

I love 3D! I am obsessed with all things 3D, though I seem to be in the minority in that regard. I have had a 3D TV and I really enjoy it. I might be one of the few that does so (no one else I know has one) but 3D is just fun. 3D PS3 games, 3D bluray movies, and best of all, having seen...

After more than a 3 year wait, we finally have an update from Nikon of the D700 with the newly launched D800. As part of Team Nikon, I have been waiting for this Full Frame monster. A 36.3 megapixel, Full Frame, 1080p video, the list goes on – I’m in! Of course, I couldn’t wait and bought the D7000 just a little over a...

Despite the somewhat dubious name, Ainol is a Chinese company that produces a number of media players. I bought one a few years ago to use in while travelling before the iPad came along. Ainol has moved into the tablet world with a bunch of Android tablets built off their media players. The amazing thing is that one of their newest products, the Novo...

Personal viewing glasses are one of those things that sounds so cool. I’ve had 3 in my time – many, many years ago. While they were cool, they gave me a splitting headache, was generally heavy, and had poor battery life. So their eventual demise was no surprise. Over the years, a few models have emerged trying to revamp interest in this product. I...

The Sphero is just one of those simple fun inventions that looks like a lot of ... well "fun". It looks like the size of Tennis ball that is remotely controlled from your iOS or Android device. So cool. I want one!
Richard Mille has raised the bar again with the RM056. A sapphire encased tourbillon let's you see everything. There's only 5 in the world, but at US$1.65m, this is only going to be for a select few. theVooner says: That's an impressive watch! One to be seen with.
The Nokia brandname has taken a big fall and its still trying to find its way back. It’s tethered its return with the still unproven Windows Mobile platform – so it’s very much a big unknown at the moment. In the 90s and early 2000s, there wasn’t really any other phone but Nokia. I can’t even remember the countless number of Nokia handsets I...

Hot on the heels of the super thin Macbook Air is the Asus Zenbook. I finally saw the laptop in a retail outlook and can tell you it is indeed super thin. I was really impressed with the design, and more importantly with the finish of the product. This is the first of the Windows notebook that is ultra-thin with a metallic shell. Certainly...

Just in time for Christmas, Sony has launched the PS Vita, the next generation Playstation portable. Although to a large extent, it looks a lot like the old PSP, I like that the Vita comes with a better resolution, touch screen and importantly an interactive back panel. The games have gotten even better and the preview for the Unchartered game looks very impressive. I...
