Someone asked me earlier this week which selfie stick I recommended. I had no answer. Other than shooting action sports with a GoPro, it is a phenomenon that is beyond me. Perhaps I am getting old, but this funny spoof on selfie sticks from College Humor sums up my thoughts quite well.

Kai from DigitalRev is back with another over-the-top camera review. This time he pits the Nikon D7200, Canon 7D Mark II and Canon 70D against each other with an ultimate test (… I use that term loosely) in AF performance by pitting three shooters against each other in a very unique photography challenge.
Do you see a blue and black or white and gold dress in the image above?
No matter what your answer is, a hefty portion of the Internet disagrees with you. [Read more…]
This clever guy played it up during a selfie shot of couple as he acted like recording a video was a mistake. As he shifted down to one knee and pulled out a ring, his girlfriend (and soon to be fiancé) was completely shocked. The video of her reaction is simply fantastic. Watch it below. [Read more…]
As someone who has followed the HDSLR revolution from day one, I can’t help but crack up at this video. I hope you enjoy it too.

Kai from DigitalRev is back with another funny video covering a collection of clichés from mirrorless fanboys. If you follow the mirrorless vs. DSLR debates online at all, there are plenty of references that you will catch as you watch this. [Read more…]
So you get a new camera. What do you do as soon as it comes out of the box? Find a friend or family member to stand in for your first round of test shots.
Ever wonder how your non-photographer friends and family members think about being your stand-in? Now we know thanks to Jon Cole’s very witty (and likely spot-on) rendition of the camera test from the subject’s perspective.
On the technical side, we did get a nice look at some Slog2 footage from the new Sony FS7 and the Zeiss 50mm f/1.4 lens.
What happens when you walk out the door and leave your dog at home? YouTube user Mike The Intern decided to mount a GoPro on his dog (yes, GoPro makes a dog-mount) to find out what his reaction is like when he is left home alone.
The result is pretty pitiful. Watch the doggie-POV video above, which has racked up over 11 million views to date, to see and hear his reaction.
Have you ever left a camera on your pets while they are alone? What kind of things did you see?
Over the weekend, I shared the viral video of a girl in a bikini taking a selfie with the narration of a nature documentary. If you haven’t watched it yet, you can see it here.
That selfie fail video has led me to 10 more ridiculous selfie attempts. Some worked out ok for the selfie-ographer, some didn’t. All of them can be summed up with a giant eye-roll though. Check them out below.
