  • Climbing Wall Treadmill: Exercise Machine Rocks Your House

    [ By WebUrbanist in Gaming & Computing & Technology. ]

    rock wall interior rotating

    Far more exciting than a walking treadmill or elliptical machine, this infinite rock wall brings the challenges (and hard exercise) of scaling sheer cliffs right into your local gym or living room.

    The Climbstation can be rotated between a slope of 15 degrees and negative 49 degrees, simulating everything from relatively generous slopes or dizzying upside-down climbing experiences.

    The device can also rotate through different slopes, speeds and durations on demand, in response to programmatic difficulty levels or in a pre-selected sequence. As in typical bouldering rooms at climbing wall centers, a mat placed below the device will cushion any fall.

    Between climbs, users can swap out 90 holds that come with each machine between 600 potential positions, dynamically changing the landscape from one session to the next to keep things interesting and challenging.

    The mid-five-figure price tag will be enough to put off casual users, but could also be sufficiently low for these to start showing up not just at the homes of the rich and famous but also at regional fitness centers – a great way for recreational climbers or professionals located far from mountains to train or simply stay in shape.

  • Capture PRO Camera Clip Review

    A Better Way to Carry Your Camera?

    The updated Capture PRO from Peak Design offers a secure, hands-free alternative to traditional camera straps.

    The updated Capture PRO from Peak Design offers a secure, hands-free alternative to traditional camera straps.

    About a year and a half ago I posted a short review on Facebook of the original version of the Capture Camera Clip from Peak Design Ltd. Since getting my hands on it, Capture has become an integral tool for my location, event, and street photography, as well as a perfect solution for quick camera access while I’m teaching, either in the classroom or on location. That’s why I was so excited last August, when the San Francisco-based company launched two updated versions of Capture in what would end up being a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign. Going back to the community that helped make the original Capture such a popular accessory, the crowd-funded project raised $ 819,108 in just 54 days– crushing its goal of $ 100,00. With numbers like that, I had to find out how Capture Pro measured up to the original. You may have read Sime’s preview of the new versions before their release back in August, but now that I’ve had a chance to put Capture PRO through its paces for a few months, I figured it was time for an update.

    What is Capture?

    So, what is Capture? Imagine taking the quick-release assembly off your tripod and attaching it to your belt. Or your backpack strap. Or the shoulder strap from your camera bag. Or a climbing harness. Getting the idea? Simply put, the Capture Camera Clip allows you to use virtually any strap of almost any thickness to keep your camera close at hand and ready to go. I’ve never been a fan of traditional camera straps. Regardless of whether it is around my neck or over my shoulder, the weight is a strain and at least one hand is always on the camera, making sure it’s not bumping into anything or anyone. Sling straps are a great solution, but still get in the way when you are carrying a camera bag.  Capture not only allows me to “go strapless,” but also frees up my hands.

    What’s New

    As great as the original was, Version 1 was not without a few minor drawbacks, most notably its hard corners and uncomfortable screws. It’s always refreshing when companies take the time to not only listen to feedback from their customers, but to implement those suggestions into newer, better products. Constructed from die-cast aluminum, the clip is tightened into place with zinc-alloy clamping bolts. These bolts are what allows the clip to adjust to belts and straps of different thicknesses.  The new streamlined design is stronger and lighter, with a more narrow profile and smoother mechanics, while retaining all of the convenience and functionality of the original.

    Zinc-alloy clamping bolts adjust to the thickness of the strap, and the standard ARCA Plate makes the unit compatible with a wide range of tripods.

    Perhaps the best added features however, are the mounting hole on the bottom for monopods and tripods (Pro version only), and the twisting safety lock on the quick release buttons for both Pro and V2.  The standard ARCA Plate is already compatible with ARCA-style tripod heads, but making the entire clip tripod-mountable adds a new facet of convenience that did not exist in the original.  While the original version had a twist lock for added security, both Capture PRO and Capture V2 have added an additional  safety lock to the quick release button, making sure that once latched, your camera isn’t going anywhere.  This comes in particularly handy for event photographers who have to navigate through large crowds. In one test, I had a group of friends try to strip my camera from the clip at my waist as I worked a crowd. All were unsuccessful.

    The new tripod socket on the bottom and additional locking mechanism on the quick release button add functionality and security to the original design.

    Room for Improvement?

    There is always room for improvement. No product is perfect, but any of the negative things I have to say about Capture are pretty minor– merely a matter of personal preference, and have no bearing on the quality of the product itself. For instance, I would have preferred for the quick-release button on the opposite side of the clip, but that doesn’t affect the quality of the build or the functionality of the device.

    New Accessories

    I prefer using Capture with lenses like the 24-70mm, the 35mm, or the 50mm. I wasn’t crazy about how Version 1 handled the extra weight and awkward movement of a larger lens, like the 70-200mm. With the new Capture PROpad, however, the developers and designers have gone a long way to solving this comfort and stability issue. The firm, compression-molded padding eases part of the load, redistributing some of the added weight of longer lenses.

    Another new accessory– the POV Kit– turns the Capture Clip into a mount for any GoPro or small point-and-shoot camera. Getting POV photos or video from your backpack straps or similar vantage points has never been easier.

    On the left, Capture attached to the shoulder strap of a Think Tank City Walker 30 camera bag. On the right, attached to a Think Tank Pro Speed Belt.

    The Bottom Line

    The Capture Camera Clip offers a great solution for photographers who don’t like traditional straps, but still want a well-made, safe, secure, hands-free way of carrying their camera.  One of the best things you can say about Capture– or any product for that matter– is that it does what it’s supposed to do and it does it well.  One of the great things about Capture is that you can expand its functionality by incorporating the Leash and Cuff camera straps, also from Peak Design.

    The last two sentences of that Facebook review I wrote a year and a half ago are even more true now than they were when I first wrote them about the original Capture. “Every once in a while someone comes out with a piece of gear that leaves you scratching your head, wondering why you didn’t come up with the idea yourself.  This is one of them.”

    Capture Pro and Capture V2, as well as the PROPad, POV Kit, Leash, and Cuff are all available on the Peak Design Wesbite.

  • Calling Home: 9 Nifty Smartphone Shaped Buildings

    [ By Steve in Architecture & Offices & Commercial. ]

    smartphone buildings
    Does your high-rise apartment or office tower look like a mobile phone? These ones do, and you can bet smartphone users inside them get REALLY good reception.

    Telefónica Chile Building – Santiago, Chile

    Telefónica Chile Building Santiago(image via: Celebrate Big)

    The Telefónica Chile Building (Torre Telefónica Chile) in Santiago was designed by architects Seismic A&E and while the firm doesn’t explicitly say so at their website, the structure was clearly intended to house a mobile telecommunications company – in this case, Telefónica Chile (known since 2009 as Movistar).

    Telefónica Chile Building Santiago(images via: Chilling In Chile, Dijitalimaj and Wikimedia/Diego Sepulveda)

    The 143 m (469 ft) tall tower’s design was an attempt to ape the appearance of state-of-the-art mid-1990s mobile phones… considering the building opened in December of 1995, we’d say the architects achieved their goal. It’s odd, however, that planners did not foresee the continuing evolution of mobile phone design through the Telefónica Chile Building‘s estimated lifespan and indeed, only a few short years after it opened the design was already looking quite dated.

    Omniyat Properties iPad Building – Dubai, UAE

    iPad Building Dubai(image via: WIRED)

    Don’t let the name “iPad” fool you, this 23-story building concept from Omniyat Properties dates from 2007 and its design was intended to evoke Apple’s iPod MP3 player sitting atop a docking station. If the design doesn’t resemble an iPod upon first glance, keep in mind the edifice will lean back at a six degree angle.

    iPad Building Dubai(images via: Roberta’s Blog and LandvestDubai)

    Omniyat Properties suspended work on many of its planned building designs as the late-2000s world financial crisis bit into investment budgets, and the iPad was one of those to be put “on hold” until better days arrived. By 2010 the design had been re-named “The Pad” for obvious reasons and according to Omniyat Properties over 50 percent of payments required to re-start work on this and other outstanding projects had been nailed down.

    Bic Camera Building – Tokyo, Japan

    The Bic Camera building in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro district is one of about 40 Bic Camera stores in Japan, though it’s the only one that looks like a cellphone. The building’s facade is actually functional in a way, as the number buttons match the building’s floors and include a short description of what products may be found there.

    Oddly for a building shaped like a cellular phone, the Bic Camera building in Ikebukuro does not specialize in mobile phone sales. Instead, this particular location predominantly sells computers, parts, peripheral devices and the like.

  • 1. Türchen: Marc von Martial

    1. Türchen

    Wir freuen uns sehr, dass wir für unseren Adventskalender nicht nur große Firmen gewinnen konnten, sondern auch tolle Künstler. Einer von ihnen ist Marc von Martial, der bei uns bereits seine Serie „Into The Basements“ vorgestellt hat.

    In unser erstes Türchen hat er einen seiner Transferdrucke mit dem Titel „Fire“, gelegt. Warum das Portrait nur so und nicht anders heißen kann, erkennt man auf den ersten Blick. Rote Flammen schmücken den unteren Bildrand. Den Effekt verdankt das Bild der Holga und einem Fuji Provia, der dann auch noch gecrossed wurde.

    Fire © Marc von Martial

    Bei Transferdrucken werden Farbpigmente mittels einer alkoholbasierten Paste auf Büttenpapier (in diesem Fall Canson Arches 88) übertragen. Jedes Bild ist ein Unikat, da immer wieder kleinere oder größere Fehler beim Transfer passieren. Auch die verwendeten Materialien haben einen großen Einfluss auf das Ergebnis. Die Farben sind brilliant und haben eine tolle Tiefe, je nach Papierstruktur ergeben sich so schöne Effekte.

    Der Rahmen,in dem der zu gewinnende Druck kommt, misst 20 x 20 cm und die Miniatur zirka 6 x 6 cm, also fast genauso groß wie das dazugehörige Mittelformat-Negativ. Auf Etsy bietet Marc auch weitere seiner Unikate an – für alle, die bei diesem Gewinnspiel kein Glück haben oder einfach einen tollen Künstler unterstützen möchten. Dieser Druck mit Rahmen hat einen Wert von 60 €.

    Um den Druck zu gewinnen, schreibe einen Kommentar unter bürgerlichem Namen und gültiger E-Mail-Adresse bis heute um 24 Uhr. Danach verlosen wir ihn per Zufallsgenerator unter allen Kommentatoren. Die genauen Gewinnspielregeln findest Du hier. Viel Glück!

One of the reasons smartphones are so popular is that they’re small, but better images don’t require enormous cameras, and increasingly, good-quality compacts are shipping with social-friendly options including built-in wireless connectivity.
