Digital Camera Tracker Provides Free Solution That Solves Real Estate Agents’ Number One Photo Problem

Digital Camera Tracker Provides Free Solution That Solves Real Estate Agents’ Number One Photo Problem

Digital Camera Tracker follows everything new in the world of digital cameras, camera phones, digital imaging products and digital imaging software.

(PRWEB) July 18, 2005 — Real estate agents around the world face the same problem when creating real estate photos: visual clutter. Visual clutter comes in the form of parked cars, trees, shrubs, utility poles, signs and the list goes on. To get the full exterior view of a home real estate agents jockey around until they get the best angle and ideally as little clutter as possible. Sometimes it’s just a losing proposition because there are things you have no control over. Wide angle lenses initially were thought to provide a solution but because of increased coverage area what generally happens is you end up with more clutter in the photo.

Digital Camera Tracker has solved the problem and provides a series of free tutorials that show real estate agents how to create photos with a lot more marketing horsepower.

Michael Huddleston, managing editor of Digital Camera Tracker indicated the free real estate photo solutions is very exciting because it gives real estate agents complete control over their photos. “Using these solutions agents can give prospective buyers a normal visual experience of properties.” Huddleston went on to explain, “the more an agent shows in their property photos the more useful and effective they are as marketing tools.” To find out more about Digital Camera Tracker or to view the real estate photo tutorials, visit http://www.digitalcameratracker.com/archives/2005/07/15/real-estate-agents-number-1-photo-problem.html.

Digital Camera Tracker Unveils New Review Temperature Tool to Benefit Consumers

Digital Camera Tracker Unveils New Review Temperature Tool to Benefit Consumers

Digital camera review site combines cutting-edge software with human review.

Eugene, OR (PRWEB) November 13, 2007 — Digital Camera Tracker, a popular online site that consolidates digital camera reviews for consumers, has unveiled a new “Review Temperature” tool that allows consumers to quickly review all available comparisons and ratings of individual cameras.

“Consumers doing research on digital cameras can spend hours trying to figure out how reviewers actually feel about a particular camera,” said company president Michael Huddleston. “Digital camera reviews can get pretty technical. Our proprietary Review Temperature tool gives consumers what they want at a glance.”

 

Human review creates a real competitive advantage for us

The Review Temperature tool provides a dynamic summary of multiple camera reviews in a graphic format. Digital Camera Tracker staff analyze every review they publish, and assigns a numeric score based on multiple factors including individual assessment of the reviewers subjective view. The Review Temperature score is a quick visual summary of multiple reviews that may be long, complex and difficult for an average consumer to understand.

“Human review creates a real competitive advantage for us,” said Huddleston. “The most exciting new sites on the Internet are creating the right blend of great software and individual personal review. Because we have human reviewers analyzing every digital camera review we publish, our Review Temperature tool can’t be matched by purely automated sites.”

Once the Review Temperature has been assigned, Digital Camera Tracker’s review pages are then optimized for consumer convenience, providing a single source for current reviews, technical specifications, owners’ manuals and test photos taken with the camera.

About Digital Camera Tracker:
Digital Camera Tracker has provided online digital camera reviews, comparisons and ratings since 2005. This site and its “Digital Camera University” are recognized as a leading Internet resource for well-researched digital camera information for consumers.

For more information, please visit the company’s Web site at http://www.digitalcameratracker.com/.

Digital Camera Buyers Guide Now Available For Holiday Shopping

Digital Camera Buyers Guide Now Available For Holiday Shopping

Digital camera comparisons and prices are included in an easy-to-use format for even the newest digital camera user.

Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) December 7, 2005 — With the multitude of digital cameras available on the market today, and with so many options available that make it hard for the average consumer to make meaningful comparisons, DigitalCameraReview.com recently published its “2005 Digital Camera Buyers Guide” at its web site, http://www.DigitalCameraReview.com.

HomePageScreenShot400px.jpg

 

People are looking for the best digital camera , but that is purely in the ‘eyes of the beholder’

“Millions of people are searching online each month for digital cameras,” said Brian Beeler, president of TechnologyGuide.com, which publishes four technology-oriented products web sites, including sites for notebook pc’s, PDAs, and Tablet PCs.

“Given the increasing interest by consumers in digital cameras , and the wide and almost confusing number of options and pricing available, we wanted to put an easy-to-use resource in place so consumers could find what they need. Plus,” he said, “the Buyers Guide also ties in with our Users’ Forum’ , where an individual can get an answer to almost any question he or she has about a digital camera .”

DigitalCameraReview.com began operation in 2004 as a consumer information web site, offering up-to-date newsfeeds and unbiased user-based information, including product ratings and reviews on all major digital camera manufacturers’ products, including Canon digital cameras, Sony digital cameras, Olympus digital cameras, and more. Its Users Forum has garnered industry praise as a consumer-friendly resource where people can get “straight answers.”

“People are looking for the best digital camera , but that is purely in the ‘eyes of the beholder’”, Beeler said. “The best digital camera is not only a function of price, but what functionality the individual requires or may be interested in. That’s why the 2005 Digital Camera Buyers Guide is so helpful.”

The 2005 Digital Camera Buyers Guide breaks down the comparison into four separate segments of digital camera prices (under $200, $200 - $300, $300 - $400, and $400 - $600) along with five different functional options (entry level digital slr’s, ultra slim/slim, ultra/super zoom, waterproof/weatherproof, and wireless enabled). This, along with the Users Forum, makes it easy for any digital camera consumer, whether a beginner or an advanced user, to find and compare his or her options.

ADDING MULTIMEDIA City and Port of Richmond Select ADT to Design and Install Public Security Camera Systems to Help Deter Crime and to Bolster Homeland Security

ADDING MULTIMEDIA City and Port of Richmond Select ADT to Design and Install Public Security Camera Systems to Help Deter Crime and to Bolster Homeland Security

 

$4 Million Project to Include 116 Wireless Surveillance Cameras in High Crime Areas and Around Port

 

BOCA RATON, Fla. (Business Wire EON) February 25, 2008 — The City and Port of Richmond, Calif. have selected ADT Security Services to design and install two public security camera systems, one for the City to help reduce crime and vandalism, and limit illegal dumping and trespassing, and a second for the Port of Richmond as part of the Ports homeland security initiatives. The digital video surveillance systems will cost a total of $4 million and include 116 cameras. The City system will have the ability to wirelessly transmit images to the Richmond police headquarters and to the police dispatch center where the cameras will be monitored. The Port system can wirelessly transmit images to Port Security.

 

New, proven wireless mesh technology makes this type of video security system not only practical, but also a real tool for increasing public safety

We are looking for this system to help deter crime and prosecute criminals, said Ed Medina, Richmond deputy police chief. The response from the public to the announcement of the cameras has been very positive and everyone is looking forward to a safer community.

News Image The three-year contact with ADT involves the installation and maintenance of 34 cameras in high crime areas, including unincorporated parts of North Richmond. The contract for the Port calls for the installation and maintenance of 82 cameras around the Port of Richmond. The systems will be paid for by the City of Richmond, the North Richmond Waste and Recovery Mitigation Fund and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Installation of the new systems is expected to be completed by April 2008. System software can be programmed to enable the cameras to recognize and record certain activity in a location, which can help law enforcement identify the occurrence of criminal conduct, such as someone painting graffiti on a wall or dumping trash and garbage in unauthorized areas. It also provides for maximum flexibility by allowing cameras to be easily repositioned on a wireless mesh network. In addition, the technology offers system reliability as the information travels across nodes, or relays, until it reaches its destination. Should any node fail, the system has the capability to enable other nodes to take over and complete the transmission.

New, proven wireless mesh technology makes this type of video security system not only practical, but also a real tool for increasing public safety, said John Koch, president of ADT North America. We believe that the City and Port of Richmond are taking a leadership role by using this technology and that other city and local governments will soon follow.

The new camera system will have a big impact on the city, according to Richmond City Manager Bill Lindsay.

The City of Richmonds alliance with ADT for cutting-edge technology will transform how we do business in Richmond, he said.

A second phase of the project is already in the planning and engineering phases and will include transmitting video directly to Richmond police patrol cars giving officers the ability to view crime scenes remotely and obtain critically important information before they arrive at the scene.

Ultimately the wireless technology will allow us to get video directly to officers out in the field, said Medina. That means officers could have a real idea of the situation and what they are walking into before they arrive.

With a population of approximately 103,000, the City of Richmond is located 16 miles northeast of San Francisco on a peninsula separating San Francisco Bay and San Pablo Bay. The city boasts one of the largest shipping ports for liquid bulk and automobile tonnage among all the ports on San Francisco Bay.

ADT’s total security solutions include intrusion, fire protection, closed circuit television, access control, critical condition monitoring, electronic article surveillance, radio frequency identification (RFID) and integrated systems.

Tenba Introduces Skooba Superbungee Shock Absorbing Camera Strap

Tenba Introduces Skooba Superbungee Shock Absorbing Camera Strap

Tenba Introduces Skooba Superbungee Shock Absorbing Camera Strap,

Elmsford, NY (PRWEB) February 26, 2008 — When it comes to designing camera straps, what can you do that hasn’t been tried already?

 

Superbungee Camera Strap - 2
Superbungee Camera Strap - 2

“Plenty,” says Tenba/Skooba’s Peter Waisnor. “To start with, what happens when you walk - or run - with a camera or binoculars around your neck? The answer is you feel every bump and step, and so does your gear. We asked ourselves what would happen if there was some sort of active shock-absorber to cushion the load. The solution, after a lot of trial-and-error, was that we attached the camera strap ends to a freely-floating bungee cord loop. Now, as the load jostles up and down, the movement is minimized.”

The net result is that the user perceives the weight as less than it actually is, and the movement of whatever is attached to the strap is smoothed out markedly, lessening fatigue and muscle aches. Skooba first brought this technology out in the larger, heavy-duty Superbungee Bag Strap, and has a utility patent pending on the Superbungee system.

The new camera strap version adjusts from 21″ to 45″ in length. The width is 1.5″, perfect for most cameras, binoculars and other around-the-neck (or over-shoulder) carrying applications. To make it even more effective, the underside of the strap is covered with the Air Square system, consisting of individual, air-filled cells that add significant additional shock absorption and comfort. Professional photographers who used the strap during testing agreed that the design was a measurable improvement over conventional straps.

The Skooba Superbungee Camera Strap is available in a variety of color combinations, at a suggested retail price is $19.95. For more product or purchase information, visit SkoobaDesign.com.

New Camera Bag “Changes” Form so that You Can Easily “Change” Your Gear

New Camera Bag “Changes” Form so that You Can Easily “Change” Your Gear

For photographers who require a sturdy field bag they can use in a variety of settings, Think Tank Photo announces the release of the Change Up. This one bag changes form as a belt pack, a shoulder bag, and even can be carried on the chest when supported by the enclosed harness system.

Santa Rosa, CA (PRWEB) August 20, 2007 — For photographers who require a sturdy field bag they can use in a variety of settings, Think Tank Photo announces the release of the Change Up. This one bag changes form as a belt pack, a shoulder bag, and even can be carried on the chest when supported by the enclosed harness system.

 

Change Up
Change Up

 

After tucking away the waist belt, one shoulder strap can be used so that it appears to be a regular shoulder bag

The wide, supportive waist belt allows photographers to wear this belt pack either lower or higher on the front of the body, or even on the side of the hip. The choice is up to whatever they prefer at that moment while they are shooting. Most photographers tend to wear belt packs lower on the front of their bodies to facilitate getting the gear in and out of the bag.

The chest/shoulder strap provided with the Change Up supports the weight of the bag, while allowing it to be rotated around the body. This allows photographers to adjust the weight from their shoulders to their hips, and move the bag along their waists with ease.

“After tucking away the waist belt, one shoulder strap can be used so that it appears to be a regular shoulder bag,” said Doug Murdoch, Think Tank Photo founder and lead designer. “This is why we called it the ‘Change Up.’ It can be used for one purpose and then be changed very easily for another. Cameras such as the Nikon D200 or the Canon 5D without the bottom battery grips attached can be put straight down into the bag with a lens attached.”

With most belt packs, when photographers sit down they feel quite uncomfortable because bag is in the way. With the Change Up they can use the adjustment straps to pull up the bag 4 to 8″ on the front of their bodies, which allows them to sit down comfortably.

Features:

  • Can be used as a belt pack or shoulder bag.
  • Shoulder strap provides support.
  • Can be used with a chest harness.
  • Modulus components attach to belt.
  • Stretch front and side pockets.
  • Front pocket organizer.
  • Removable foam padded insert.
  • Rear pocket for accessories.
  • Tuck away waist belt.
  • Top handle.
  • Seam-sealed raincover included.

About Think Tank Photo
Headquartered in Santa Rosa, California, Think Tank Photo (http://www.thinktankphoto.com) is a group of designers and professional photographers focused on studying how photographers work and developing inventive new carrying solutions that meet their needs. They are dedicated to using only the highest quality materials and design principles, and employing materials that are environmentally benign.
