Product Description:
The CarbonFlex 8X CX-series tripods are made of the latest generation of high quality 8-layer carbon fiber tubing. The CX-series is 60% stronger than conventional carbon fiber tripods. Each leg lock has a specially designed anti-dust and moisture seal, along with removable rubber or stainless steel spikes.In addition, they offer an innovative vertical/horizontal center column design. In a rapid and easy motion, the center column can be converted from a standard vertical column to a horizontal cross bar. In the horizontal position, a mounted camera can have a clear view without the tripod legs getting in the way, to achieve challenging and creative angles.Especially advantageous for nature and on-location industrial shooters, the CarbonFlex 8X is the perfect choice for photographing flat art, close-up macro photography and for those shooting situations that require total flexibility in camera positioning. It offers vertical, horizontal, panning, rotating and angular positioning of the center column in one of the most versatile designs to be available in the photo industry.In addition, CarbonFlex has a unique center column design. During normal shooting you can adjust the center column and bring it back to its normal position to maintain the gravity and stability. The collection includes all the features of Carbon 8X C-series tripods.

Great Legs!
2008-11-19Legs come in all sizes, shapes, colors and prices, but a quality product will always demand a little more cash than a lesser, however sometimes you can find a true bargain, where a quality product costs just a little less than a similar product. Such is the case with Induro. Induro is a Chinese company known for quality products in Asia under the Benro moniker. Induro is their upscale American market line of tripods, monopods & heads, marketed by the MAC Group. I've heard a lot about, and experienced the quality of Gitzo & Manfroto legs, but was curious about the Induro line because they were typically about $200.00 cheaper than their counter part Gitzo legs. Well, mine finally arrived about a month ago & the very 1st thing I noticed was the extreme craftsmanship deployed, the finish was smooth to the point of being elegant, the operation smooothhh, precise and firm. The leg twist type locks required 1 twist to unlock, 1 twist to a secure lock, insuring a very quick & stable ..., rock solid stable, mount. My D300 w/mb210 drive, and all my lenses have found a secure & stable set of legs with this baby. I love it! BTW I weigh 217 lbs & when extended & can pull myself up on these legs without a single snap, crackle or pop from these legs. Way to go Induro. Thanks for a quality product at a very reasonable price.

View Finder - A small eyepiece or screen on the camera that allows you to see the image you're recording. (The camera also acts as a VCR, so you can play back and watch what you have already recorded through the view finder).

It's worthwhile to white balance every time you use your camera to get the highest quality video. If your camera doesn't have this feature, it may have an automatic or internal system. What white balancing does is adjust the intensity of the colors being recorded according to the existing light. Make sure you white balance every time the lighting conditions change; if you record video inside and then go outside, your lighting conditions have changed and you need to instruc ...
Driving with a cell phone is a lot less dangerous than driving on prescription drugs
There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents.
In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
