John McCain Slightly Less Obnoxious During Second 'Don't Ask Don't Tell' Hearing [Hearings]

The second day of Senate hearings regarding a "Don't Ask Don't Tell" repeal went better for shameless filibuster-leader John McCain. But that's only because he fully embarrassed himself yesterday. But are the individual service chiefs really against repeal? More »

Holiday Gift Guide 2010: Project Documentation and Photography

MZ_HolidayGiftGuide10_v1.gif

Foot pedal photo setup, DIY, video from Adafruit (uses Boarduino available in the Maker Shed)

Ladyada uses a foot pedal to trigger her Nikon camera so she can easily take pictures that feature her two hands busy makin' stuff.

Eye-Fi card, $50-$100

These nifty gadgets replace your standard SD memory and pack in some tiny 'tronics to connect to your wireless network. Automagically transfer photos from your camera to your PC (and share them online via Flickr, etc.) without ever connecting a single USB cable. Speeds up your post-production time considerably!

Tripod, $varies

Taking clear, crisp photos is a huge part of documenting your project well, and if there's one thing that's going to get you there, it's a good sturdy tripod. If it's even a smidge darker than natural daytime sunlight, you're going to want one to eliminate motion blur caused by your subtle hand-held motions. Manfrotto makes the best ones, but you can get by with a cheapy Sunpak or similar. I've been eying Manfrotto's variable friction magic arm, which I could clamp to a table or shelf and quickly manipulate to get the shots I want.

Digital camera, $varies

I'm really digging the compact size and pro-looking photos coming from the micro four thirds cameras these days. Pictured above is the Olympus ELP-1, but I've also been eyeing the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1. There's nothing wrong with the big DSLRs, or small point-and-shoots, though. Canon PowerShots can run CHDK, a more fully-featured and hacker-friendly firmware perfect for manually controlling exposure, making your own remotes, etc.

Stuart Florence replied to Stuart Florence's discussion 'Mixing ESCs'
Tried all of that - think its not working - As as I said I have a Turnigy Plush 18A ESC - does it matter if all ESCs not identical? If they have same throttle range and same settings as far as possible - should it work ? I gues if the acceleration?

New Bravia TV includes PS2 hardware

Many of us can't play PS2 games on our PS3s right now, but Sony has come up with a clever, and distinctly Sony-like, workaround for that problem: sticking a PS2 into a Bravia HDTV. And only ten years after the system's contemporary, the Dreamcast, was packed into a Fuji TV.

The budget-focused (okay, maybe it's not all that Sony-like) Bravia KDL-22PX300 includes 720p output, four HDMI ports ... and a PS2. We bet you can't guess where the PS2 hardware is in that sleek, sleek design. The set's currently available in the UK for £199.95 (about $312).
