Can you visualize this?

A through-hiker on the Pacific Coast Trail  reaches a major mile marker on her 2,700-mile, six-month hike. It’s 7:00 in the morning and she is standing alone on the top of Mt. Whitney. The weather is perfect and she can see for miles in all directions. A Kodak moment!

This hiker has two choices: wait hours for someone to come along and take this perfect photo or attempt to take a self- portrait by stretching her arm out as far as she can holding the camera in her hand and trying to guess at a good angle. These self portraits usually end up very disappointing with a blurred close-up of a face and very little scenery in the background.

Now visualize this:

While alone on top of Mt. Whitney, this hiker pulls out her 10-gram StickPic, quickly attaches her camera to the end of her hiking pole, and snaps a beautiful, well-proportioned, perfectly centered picture of herself and her surroundings. Even better, while using the StickPic, she uses the video feature on her digital camera and makes a vivid documentary about her trip.  If a picture says a thousand words, a video says a million!

Weighing only 10.5 grams, it comes in five different models, to fit 90% of all common trekking poles.

Digital Underwater Camera Mask

The Liquid Image Digital Underwater Camera Mask allows swimmers to record underwater photos and video hands free.  Users will enjoy the combination of a camera and mask in one while swimming. The benefits include a hands free experience for easier and safer swimming.  Other underwater cameras require the user to hold the camera while swimming to photograph their underwater adventures.

To take a photo or a video, the user lines up the crosshair marks on the mask with the object, and then presses the capture button. LED lights inside the viewing area indicate the mode the camera is in when activated.  Users can download the digital images and video they’ve captured to a computer through a USB cable. Software is included to edit photos and videos. Users can print or email the files to share with friends.

The camera comes with 16 MB SD RAM internal memory. A Micro SD Card slot allows the memory to be upgraded to hold more images and video. The camera and mask combination is available in both a 3.1 and a 5.0 MP version.
