				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TASCAM&#8217;s <a href="http://tascam.com/content/images/universal/misc/prosoundnet_best_logov3.jpg">award winning</a> DR-60D is the new audio recording solution for on-set filmmakers and videographers using DSLR&#8217;s. For years, filmmakers<a name="Best of Show"></a>have been trying different methods for recording audio, using bulky recorders designed for music and trying to transform the inferior audio technology built-into DSLR&#8217;s. Now TASCAM has designed an answer that pros and amateurs alike have been waiting for.</p>
<p><a href="http://epixels.co.nz/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2013/06/Tascam-d60-.png"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1116" alt="Tascam d60" src="http://epixels.co.nz/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2013/06/Tascam-d60-.png" width="673" height="347" /></a><img alt="ProSound Network Best of Show" src="http://tascam.com/content/images/universal/misc/prosoundnet_best_logov3.jpg" width="200" height="146" /><br />
The DR-60D is a brand new 4-track solid-state recorder utilizing TASCAM&#8217;s decades of experience. The recorder utilizes high-grade HDDA pre-amps, legendary AD converters, and a durable but lightweight structure and shape. This device will fit snuggly under any camera or into any rig, and record up to 96kHz/24-bit high quality audio straight to SD/SDHC media. Filmmakers have at their disposal two 1/4&#8243;-XLR Locking Combo MIC/LINE Inputs, 3.5mm Stereo MIC Input, Camera In, Camera Out, Line Out and Headphone Out. Both 1/4&#8243;-XLR Combo Inputs supply +48V Phantom Power and the 3.5mm Input supplies Plug-In Power for microphones requiring a bias voltage.</p>
<p>The DR-60D is incredibly easy to use, employing TASCAM&#8217;s very popular user interface and external controls for every major operation. The body structure, soft-touch keys and dials are designed specifically to help eliminate handling noise. The multiple record modes include, 4-Channel Record, Auto Record and TASCAM&#8217;s Dual Record &#8220;Safety Track&#8221; Mode make the DR-60D one of the most versatile recorders on the market.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Photography is an art and art is a personal expression. To nurture &amp; grow, we must be encouraged and well fostered. Making a decision to attend photography workshop is great BUT how does one make the most of it ?</p>
<p>There are several things we can do before hand and during the workshop to maximise the learning experience.</p>
<h3>Do your homework and know your workshop well before signing up</h3>
<p>Lot of folks come into a workshop completely unprepared. They signed up for the workshop but they haven’t really done any homework to see what it is really about or prepare themselves to digest the information.<br />
(Example: a new beginner registering for advanced workshop which required a certain level of skill sets)<br />
Other factors to consider : COURSE content (topics) ; course duration ; course tutors / facilitator.</p>
<h3>Choose your photography workshop based on the instructor(s) rather than the location, cost, topic, or agenda.</h3>
<p>It is always the instructor’s wisdom, teaching skill and abilities that make or break the success of a workshop. Its not the photographer’s WORK that should solely determine your choice. Just because one can make a good photograph does not mean they can TEACH. Far too often, workshop attendees are disappointed by a photographer whose work they admire but whose teaching skills make a workshop a disaster.</p>
<p>Some Practical Steps:</p>
<ol>
<li>Seek a chance to talk to the instructor &#8211; Can he / she inspire or guide you to greater levels</li>
<li>Attitude of the tutor</li>
<li>Talk with others who have attended the workshops</li>
<li>Workshop reviews / ratings by others.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Gears preparations for the workshop</h3>
<p>A good rule of thumb is to bring as much gear as you can. The real nightmare is having it but not able to use it. Don&#8217;t forget to check that ALL your gear is in good working order. You certainly wouldn&#8217;t want to find out you ran out of memory cards or a battery failure in the middle of a session (OR) brought your camera body without the lens.</p>
<h3>Prepare yourself for the photography workshop (Body &amp; Mind)</h3>
<p>A photography workshop is exciting – and they can also be very exhausting so I highly recommend getting plenty of rest before you start a workshop and making sure you are healthy. Experiences like workshops will always be more productive if you have goals. So it’s a good idea to think about what you’d like to get out of the workshop &amp; tune yourself to receive. Bring your enthusiasm to the workshop . leave the pressures of your every-day life behind and immerse yourself in what we all love. Your enthusiasm and enjoyment will add to the group dynamics and enrich your experience.</p>
<h3>Ask Questions during the photography workshop</h3>
<p>If you find yourself uncertain about something, ask questions. The instructor is there to make sure you get all your questions answered. Don’t find yourself in the position of heading home and thinking, “I wish I had asked that.”</p>
<blockquote><p>In life, we learn more from failures than you do from successes. Be willing to take risks and push yourself.<br />
If you don&#8217;t, then you won&#8217;t get the most out of life.</p></blockquote>

<h2>Feature 1 &#8211; X-Trans CMOS Sensor &#8211; Enabling high quality imaging</h2>
<p>Equipped with a large APS-C size sensor the resolving and descriptive power of the Fujinon lens can be maximized thereby enabling high resolution over the entire screen.</p>
<p>The X-E1&#8242;s sensor adopts the same high-performance 16M X-Trans CMOS found in the X Series flagship X-Pro1 model. Featuring an originally developed colour filter array with a highly random pixel arrangement, its X-Trans CMOS sensor eliminates the need for an optical low-pass filter, which is used in conventional systems to inhibit moiré at the expense of resolution. The innovative array lets the X-Trans CMOS sensor capture unfiltered light from the lens and produce unprecedented resolution. The unique random arrangement of the colour filter array is also highly effective in enhancing noise separation in high-sensitivity photography. Another advantage of the large APS-C sensor is the ability to create a beautiful “bokeh” effect– the aesthetic out-of-focus effect created when shooting with a shallow depth of field.</p>

<h2> Feature 2 &#8211; High-definition and high-luminance 2.36M-dot “OLED electronic viewfinder”</h2>
<p>By combining the best “OLED electronic viewfinder” in its class with FUJIFILM&#8217;s original optical technology the X-E1 offers a bright, wide field of vision of which its entirety can be seen at a glance.</p>
<p><strong>2.36M-dot Organic EL Panel</strong><br />
With approx. 2.36M dots of resolution and 100% coverage, the X-E1 display panel provides incredible detail to perfectly frame and focus your shots. The rich colour expression of OLED technology and high contrast ratio of 1:5000* reflect exposure, white balance and film simulation settings with high fidelity, letting you confirm changes in real time.</p>

<h2>Feature 3  - Design &amp; Accessories</h2>
<p>Two different X-E1s with two personalities. The analog interface enabling instinctive operation that allows you to capture “the perfect moment”.</p>
<p>With an 18-55mm lens the X-E1 is compact and has a bright F2.8 as well as an image stabilization function for four shutter speeds. It is available in black or silver.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Potentially the smallest full-frame dSLR on the camera market &#8211; <strong>Canon&#8217;s EOS 6D.</strong></h3>
<p><a href="http://epixels.co.nz/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2012/12/6d-images.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-937" src="http://epixels.co.nz/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2012/12/6d-images.jpg" alt="" width="470" height="419" /></a></p>
<p>Utilizes Canon&#8217;s DIGIC 5+ Image Processor and offers a 20.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor. In addition, 6D offers a 3.0-inch, 1.04 million dot LCD display with a viewing angle of 170 degrees.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline"><strong>EXTRA COOL Features:</strong></span></p>
<p><a href="http://epixels.co.nz/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2012/12/wireless.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-942" src="http://epixels.co.nz/wp-content/blogs.dir/2/files/2012/12/wireless.jpg" alt="" width="700" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>Interestingly, the Canon EOS 6D includes <strong>built-in Wi-Fi</strong> using a wireless transmitter within the camera. When connected to Wi-Fi, the 6D can transmit photos and video to social networking sites like Facebook or devices like smartphones and laptops. In addition, media can be transmitted between compatible PowerShot cameras.</p>
<p>Another wireless function allows the camera to be controlled through an application on a tablet or smartphone, ideal for taking photos remotely. <strong>GPS functions</strong> are also directly built into the 6D rather than requiring an add-on, external device. The <strong>built-in GPS receiver records longitude, latitude and elevation</strong> as well as EXIF data for geo-tagging while shooting. When photos are uploaded to social networks, the location data can be included to mark the spot where the photo was originally taken.</p>
