This next product is a cult favorite of semi-pro and pro photographers worldwide. The Ricoh GRIIIx HDF. It is extremely versatile, small and compact and utilizes what is called HDF (highlight diffusion filter) to give your images more of a film like quality than a digital point and shoot. You might have to wait a bit for this one or call your local camera store. They are not easy to find.

OK you lazy bums out there. For those who love a great cup of coffee but don’t want to mess around with grinding beans or using a pour over kettle treat yourself to a known leader in the field.

They come in a variety of colors so make it count if it is going to sit out on our countertop.
For those who are not too familiar with the audio space, it is a long, deep, very deep, rabbit hole. And talk about expensive. There are turntables out there that cost as much as a Corolla. It is easy to fall in the hole, especially if you are a nerd. So, you have a great pair of wired headphones that you think are the bomb. Maybe they are. But whatever you have, it is being held back from truly performing. Enter a DAC (Digital to Analog Converter). Your computer has one but it is crappy. So is the one on your phone. This little bit of kit will dial up the audio quality on your wired headphones to the Nth degree. And it won’t break the bank. So, if you are looking to get into Audio, start here. Start with this company. Their stuff is the Schitt.

Summer is here, bringing with it a season full of BBQ and outdoor living. This year treat yourself to the best cooker ever and revel in the compliments that will flow like honey as your guests sample your cooking. This amazing little smoker was introduced to me by my amigo (thanks Wayne) and touted as the most stupid easy cooker to use. I had my doubts but after tasting the sausage, ribs and brisket that came out of this thing, even my dumb 'ole self can look like a backyard pro. COOKSHACK

Simple words cannot describe how in the world one can justify spending $400 on a cooler. Your wife and friends will think that you have lost your friggin' marbles for spending so freely on something so, well, worthless. But it will be you who has the last laugh. YETI coolers keep your cold stuff almost cold 5x as long as the "5-day" cooler sold by brand X. What happens to a regular 'ole cooler when it rolls out of the back of your truck doing 60 MPH? The question is , what's left? Drop a YETI out the back doing 60 and it'll get scratched, that's about it. Bear proof and almost bomb proof a YETI will be the last cooler you ever buy. Be a big boy and pony up the dough for a real mans cooler. YETI COOLERS
OK folks. I can honestly tell you that after owning the original Kindle, I can make some direct comparisons to the new one. MAJOR UPDATE in my opinion isn't the thinner format and lighter weight of this new Kindle. It is BUTTON position. The First Gen. Kindle made it far too easy to accidentally advance or retard your pages. The new Kindle has addressed this Achilles heel, thereby making your reading experience that much more enjoyable. Let's not also forget that you can be driving down the highway (as a passenger, of course), in an airport or out on the range (with a cell signal, duh) and buy, download and begin reading a new book or periodical almost instantly. How Cool! Get'em here: AMAZON
These little FLIP Video recorders have been popular for quite some time now. They are small, weigh next to nothing, plug and play USB technology and are relatively inexpensive. Now, from the makers of the original FLIP VIDEO comes FLIP HD. Cool! Great battery life, 60 minutes of video recording and you can even "snap" still photos from your video. FLIPVIDEO
I have been a fan of Gary Waterfield bags for YEARS and have owned several. I would own more but I just cannot seem to destroy these things. They are bullet proof and do a GREAT job of keeping your gear in place. I personally have been using the Cargo Mambo for over 5 years now and it still looks and functions just as well as it did the day it arrived. Their customer service is A+ and the bags are made in the USA. Get one today SFBAGS.COM
If you are like me, you suffer from a lack of storage space for all of your cool gadgets. Cell phone, GPS, eBook reader, sunglasses, iPod, travel documents, the list goes on and on. Well, thanks to founder and design genius, Scott Jordan, the ScotteVest has you well taken care of. This photo is depicting the Fleece 5.0 product inside out. Afterall, it's what is on the INSIDE of this jacket that makes it unqiue. Sporting the PAN (personal area network) fancy word for earphone management, two pockets with a touch material so that you can control your devices as well as see the screen and numerous other pockets for stowing tons of gear, you are ready to hit the streets. The great thing about this jacket? It is designed so that the gear in your pockets maintain their own "zone" to keep you from looking like you had extra whip cream with your sundae. What I call the AGBM'S (anti-gear bloat managemet systems). Your stowed gear lays flat and inconspicuous. So, put on your best spy face, load your gear and hit the streets, hands free and ready to roll. SCOTTeVEST
I finally found what I believe to be the brightest flashlight one can possibly own. At 1050 Lumens (that's 2 Million candle power) the Borealis by BlackBearFlashLight will not only temporarily blind an unwelcome guest but will double as a fire starter should the need arise. And that's no joke. While not cheap, if you are looking for that next great toy to outdo your buddy, this would be it. Each light is hand made using a "host" body by master light builder Juan C.
