DIY Camera Bag

Ok, I admit that I'm a sucker for any kind of briefcase or camera bag. This article from Lifehacker caught my attention because I'm in the market for a new camera bag and I wanted function over fancy.

The original article was written in the Wired Hot To Wiki and gives detailed instructions for converting a non-descript army surplus bag into a functional camera bag.

Sony Camera will even tell you when to take the picture!

For a long time I've joked that that camera technology has gotten so sophisticated that it will do eveything but tell you when to take the picture. That boundary has been crossed.Meet the Sony Cybershot DSC T70!

THe T70 has a facial recognition mode that only allows the camera to fire when you subject is smiling. Here's a video demonstration from Yahoo. It also features a 3 inch touch screen display, a Carl Zeiss lens, and 8.1 megapixels of resolution.
