If you find ordinary camera bags too boring, then check out these custom-fit bags for DSLR cameras. Each "Pixbag" is made specifically for a certain DSLR model, ensuring a snug fit in addition to the one-of-a-kind design. It looks like the bag is only available to people living in Europe, but if that's where you are, you can pick one up for about €50 over on DaWanda (the Etsy of Europe).
Logo designer Graham Smith has a neat project called "Brand Reversions" in which the logo styles of famous companies are swapped with their competitors. Canon and Nikon swap styles in the logos above, while Leica's famous red dot takes on Panasonic's Lumix brand name. Check out the rest on Smith's website.

Late last year we showed you an interesting demonstration of HDR video filmed using two Canon 5D Mark IIs. The cameras captured the exact same scene at different exposure values using a beam-splitter. Now, a new camera called AMP has been developed that captures real-time HDR video using a single lens. The trick is that there are two beam-splitters in the camera that take the light and direct it onto three different sensors, giving the system a dynamic range of 17 stops. Check out some sample …
Researchers in Australia are working on developing a thin piezoelectric film that can be used to convert mechanical energy into electricity. An uber-useful application would be to use the film in existing gadgets, allowing button presses and finger swipes to be used to recharge the device's battery. One of the lead scientists, Dr. Madhu Bhaskaran, states, …
