Get ready for some exceptional photography! Latest iOS devices like iPhone 4S and iPad 3rd generation have rear camera with advanced optics, that lets you capture stunning photos but what about timing? It doesn't matter how many pixels or how good lenses you have, if you don't time it properly. With Fast Camera app (it works on any iPhone, iPad and iPod touch with camera, not just on latest models) you can take several/many sequential photos to capture moments you treasure. Of course you could record video and then try to search for a frame that suits you the best, but the best resolution for video...

So many people use their camera phones as their primary camera these days. Even Annie Leibovitz recently recommended her iPhone as a basic point and shoot during an interview with NBC's Brian Williams. It has always been said that the best camera is the one you have with you, and since almost everyone carries a mobile phone today, that almost makes it the best by default. Depending on your mobile phone, your camera can be "ok" or really great. They range all over the place, from 3 to 12 Megapixels, and some use the same lenses made for expensive SLR cameras. But regardless of the number of Megapixels...

Some time back, I took a look at the Module case from Dacha Works. So I've been looking forward to their next release. As much as I loved the unique waves of the Module case, I must confess, I just don't get the Mod 4. The Mod 4 package boasts that it "Brings the unique look and perfect handling of classing rangefinder cameras to the unmatched iPhone 4." And I sorta almost get that. With the Mod 4 case on, your iPhone looks like an ordinary camera from the back. It's clever. But it's also confusing, because the back of the camera (the part with the viewfinder) is the part you hold towards...

Back in March at CTIA, I discovered the DryCase. I shared their little demo with you here on JAGS. It was voted amongst the top 25 in the Last Gadget Standing, and was amongst my top two of show. But seeing a trade show demo, is never quite the same as DIY. So the nice people at DryCase sent me the small model to play with. When you play, you should play with children, so I enlisted the help of my nephew. Of course, it didn't hurt that he has a Kin, and I was far more willing to throw the Kin in a tub of water than my iPhone. They DryCase is as cool as it seemed from a distance, and I'm really...

This product goes in the "I want one!" category. I like taking a book and sitting in the shallow end of the pool, or at the water's edge at the beach. But you have to be careful not to get the pages wet. I prefer reading on my iPhone, but I would never take my iPhone into the pool - without a DryCASE. I was instantly drawn to the DryCASE booth, because their display was a working aquarium (fish included!) with an iPhone hanging inside...under water. I had to go check it out. I had already learned about Clever Wraps, but this seemed to be something well beyond rainproofing your gadget. You still...

An aptly named product, CleverWraps is more than a sealable ziplock bag. These are protective sleeves for any gadget you own. They allow you to keep whatever the gadge, totally functional.

I begin by admitting there is an art to good panoramic photos. Art is one of the best, actually. Oh..."Art" is my dad, a fair geek in his own right, and a darn good photographer (although not as good as my cousin Shlomit). He constantly amazes me with some of the panoramic shots he's done, as well as his choices of locales. Take this panoramic shot of the Great Wall of China, for example. It's absolutely gorgeous. If you look at his collection, you tend to wonder how he orchestrated entire towns to stop moving so that he could take his shots. I made my first (and last) attempt at a panoramic...
