Cranking out news for the geeks, music buffs and gossip junkies, my way. -Greg

Samsung’s Captivate has an enormous amount of hardware and software features. One of the things it does lack is a flash for its 5megapixel camera. I don’t really think a flash is big feature, as I’m not about to replace my real digital camera for my phones camera. When the camera in my phone begins near the 8+ megapixel mark then I would think a flash would become necessary. Short of the flash, the photo (5mp) and video (720hd) camera have quite a collection of features. The videos below quickly run through just about every feature and setting for both. I shot both of these videos using my fiancé’s HTC Aria and I have to say they turned out pretty well. I’d have to say the quality and tons of extra stuff for Captivate’s camera, make this first piece I reviewed a win for the Captivate. -Greg

I came across this collection of magnificent, I would like to say art, panorama and vertorama photos on Noupe.com. Some are more than the average wide panoramic, like 360 degree’s, or vertical panoramas. Most of them are multiple images shopped together. The I’ve done some of my own, but never this wonderful. So, I wanted to share them with everyone, so here ya go. -Greg

“This monster is an oil tanker docked in Halifax. It appears to be elevated at the bow while they are working on it (probably wouldn’t fit in our dry-dock!). Look at how small the guy who is working on it looks in comparison! I was trying to get a full profile shot of it, but it is too big for my wide-angle lens. I took a couple of shots and will try to stitch them into a panorama later.”
