Review: Canon EOS Rebel  SL1

By Niall Donnelly

WishList: Navdy is like Google Glass for your car's windshield

Google Glass may be ideal for various situations but not for driving since it acts as a distraction. Navdy, which is available for pre-order at US $319 with shipping, is a HUD (Heads Up Display) that projects navigation, alerts and notifications from your dashboard to your windshield so you don't have take your eyes off the road and thus minimizing the distraction. Navdy also promises touchless gestures a la Kinect in order to navigate or swipe away incoming calls and it includes voice recognition as well. Navdy will work with iOS and Android phones and can also integrate with a car's computer and existing set-up. This potentially game changing alert, navigation and notification HUD is expected to ship early 2015.

First look at Sony's Alpha A7 camera

We checked out Sony's stunning Alpha A7 full-frame mirrorless camera at their recent dealer show in Toronto. Merging the best aspects of the compact NEX line and the high-end full-fram Alpha line, the A7 is reasonably compact but features a 24-megapixel full-frame sensor and will shoot sensor-cropped images with NEX mount lenses. Sony is coming out with full-frame lenses to complement the Alpha A7. The more expensive A7r has a 36 megapixel full-frame sensor, it is geared towards photographers who print large-format work.
