I signed up another youtube username for tekgik.com www.youtube.com/user/tekgikregie yeah tekgik was already taken and I don’t know who is the other “tekgik”. This username will separate my youtube activities and videos from my pinoyphotographer account. Theres nothing there today but it will be flooded by tech and gadgetry favorites for the coming days.
$100k + 1000FPS HD Camera
Outstanding sample footage from this $100k camera. A high-speed camera capable of shooting 1000fps that makes fast action so slow and smooth. Hit the link to slash gear for more info.
The BBC have released footage filmed with their $100,000 high-speed HD camera, a modified TyphoonHD4, in advance of their new documentary South Pacific. The camera – which is capable of filming in super slow motion and high definition at 20 times the speed of a normal HD camera – was used to record big wave surfer Dylan Longbottom in a 12 foot monster barrel, the first time such footage has ever been filmed.

Press This Bookmarklet
I’ll be using this from now on. I guess the Press-this tool was an out-of-the-box feature since version 2.5 but I just found out about it when I upgraded to 2.7 last year, although since I first tried it I always got the “Forbidden” error. Anyway here at tekgik.com I was able to use it by editing the bookmarklet. Great tool! Thanks to Noel Jackson

The birth of tekgik.com
The first post at last! After months of contemplating. Here it is now completely set-upped lifestream blog. It will feature my online streaming of my photography blog, facebook stats and twitter twits! Oh and more importantly I will now separate my tech-gadget blogging and moaning from www.pinoyphotoghraper.net and all those non-photography gear gadget lusts and will post it here.
So now its official, tekgik.com is now online. If you love gadgets and technology plus a little bit of photography you may probably like this site.
