Photography being my greatest passion/obsession, I thought I'd write up a brief guide to some of the most unique, innovative and fun photography gadgets out there. Might I add that these photography products are decently priced. I could have easily written an article entitled "The best photography gift" (note the singular use of the word gift) and in that case I would list one thing, according to my friend Stephanie: a Leica M3. The following items, all included in my letter to the man in the red suit, are worthy gadgets that would make any photographer happy!
The bottle cap tripod
Well it's about time... One word: brilliant. I don't know how many times I've cursed myself for leaving behind my purse-size tripod. Now I have no excuse.
This portable light weight 'tripod' fits on any standard bottle and in your pocket for only $10.00.
Say goodbye to blurry bar photos, eh. Grab that full beer (it balances better) and shoot away!
The Eye-Fi card reader
I bet you never thought your camera would go wireless. Not only that, the Eye-Fi remembers exactly where your image was taken!
Choose from three different kinds: Home, Share and Explore. The geo-tagging feature is only available on Eye-Fi Explore.
Prices range from $79-$129.
The Holga
You just can't go wrong with this gift. This toy of a camera is light-weight, cheap (under $50), easy to use and most of all, provides tons of creative fun.
For more styles and colors, meet the entire Holga Family.
The Lensbaby
"Will you hand me that lens, baby? "
Seriously though, the lens baby, when bent, allows you to play around with depth of field and create an image with a sharp focused area surrounded by a graduated blur. See how far you can stretch your creativity! The Muse, pictured here, is priced at $100.
