Summer weather impacts Australia’s Great Barrier Reef
Severe summer weather conditions have had an impact on reef communities of Australia's Great Barrier Reef. High water temperatures, cyclonic winds and huge rainfall have all been responsible for some damage to many individual reefs in the world's largest coral reef system.
Mod Light and Video Housing from LMI
Light and Motion have released a new compact video housing called the Stingray III for the latest Sony MiniDV cameras HC20, HC30 and HC40. Nearly half the size of the original Stingray the new super compact Stingray III offers all of the same features of the full size model.
Other good news is that the popular Mod Light is back and improved. The Sunray Mod is powered by a rechargeable, memory free, high capacity, lithium ion battery. Burn times range from 50 minutes on the high setting to 90 minutes on low. Additionally, there is a conveniently located LED on the back of the light that informs the user of output levels, low battery warning and charging status.

Rob Galbraith: CF Performance w/ the D70
Rob Galbraith has updated his compact flash card performance database to include the new Nikon D70 digital SLR camera. I was shocked to see that when used with the fastest card in the test, the D70 records a RAW file at an amazing 4670K/sec! This is twice as fast as the older Nikon D100 and Canon 10D and almost three times as fast as the Canon Digital Rebel.
