Very nice review. But I have to warn people that some early Vivitar 283 flashes have dangerous Sync voltages which can fry your digital camera circuits. Any sync voltage above 9V (DC) will damage digital SLR's. And to clear up a confusion -- the SYNC voltage has nothing to do with how much power a f Read More...

I believe Red-eye happens because our Pupil parts of our eyes are wide open and the flash gets reflected from the insides of our eyes (epithelium) which has red blood vessels. To avoid red-eye (or minimize it) the Pupils have to be *not wide open*. To enable that -- one needs to shine bright light o Read More...

Great review and keep 'em coming :-) For me -- I'm getting the ACURA version next time (RDX Turbo). That is a nice competition for a BMW X-3 and about US$5000 cheaper! The current styling for the CR-V doesn't excite me and I have to agree with Sudipto -- it looks like a hopped-up station wagon Read More...

I'm disappointed to hear about our mishap with this camera. However accidental damage should be covered by insurance (you should talk to your insurance agent to see if they offer something like this). Warranty never covers accidental damage.

With the intro of the 2006 model Sonata -- the gap has been closed even further. IMHO -- the new 2006 HYUNDAI Azera (luxury version of the new Sonata) actually exceeds the higher trim level accords in Luxury.

In a few months (Today is Sept. 12, 2005) -- the next Lexus IS 250 and IS 350 will come out in the North American market. No talk as of yet for a convertible version for the US market -- though in a year there will be one for sure. My driving impression of a current IS300 (belongs to a colleague Read More...

You're absolutely right! The RDX is based on the _next-generation_ (2007) CR-V platform. RDX comes out first (2006)-- then Next gen. CR-V will follow in a year (2007). Typical in that luxury version always comes out first.
