OmegaBrandess announced today that they are teaming up with DeluxGear to introduce a new line of protective covers for camera lenses. But, these are no ordinarycovers. The new patent-pending Lens BumperTM absorbs impact and prevents scrapes, scratches, dents and cracks to the lenses so photographers can walk through the woods, wade through wedding reception tables, or accidentally drop their lenses, without worrying about the lens being harmed.

Don Burrell, President and CEO of Burrell Imaging, announced the start of a unique sale unlike any other the company has ever offered to the professional industry. For the entire month of July, 2012 Burrell Imaging has priced all products and services at 35% off.

In addition to the deeply discounted pricing for the month of July, Burrell Imaging will also be doubling the amount of Burrell Bonus Award Points. Burrell Bonus Award Points are awarded to customers for every purchase and, depending on a customer’s available point amounts, can be redeemed for merchandise, cash, and trips or applied to a customer’s lab balance.

There are numerous so-called "rules" of photography, and one of the most common is to always shoot at ISO 100 whenever possible. This notion is particularly prevalent among landscape photographers who strive for optimum image quality and the maximum amount of detail in every image they shoot.

Mattias Burling is an expert at highlighting somewhat overlooked cameras from a few years ago. He believes that many of these models are not only as good as many cameras released today, you can get them for a fraction of the price.

Californa SUNBOUNCE reflective panels come in various sizes (30”x35”, 35”x49”, 35”x7”, 51”x7”, 51”x74” and 70”x96”), shapes, and colors (silver/pearl white, zebra/pearl white and black/ultrabounce) which produce different kinds of lighting moods. The SUN-BOUNCE PRO panel weighs probably less than a professional camera (4pds or 1.800 gramm). Because the frames keep the material taut one gets more light and greater surface coverage per frame size. The 3-dimensional frame is handcrafted in Germany and made from best aluminum; the synergy of frame and screen gets its super-tension by the permeable elastic screen material used. All the screens are made from the finest reflective and translucent materials available. The cross bar on the back of the frame and the hand-holds on the side of the reflectors make it easy to grip. Unwanted breaks because of unstable conditions (e.g., when the sun is in and out) can be avoided by flipping over the double-sided panel to the other side of the screen. SUNBOUNCE reflectors can create strobe light, video light, sunlight or any kind of light for video-interviews, photo-portrait-shootings, sports-, action- and press-photography, commercials and live coverages.
