We just ordered up a new ATC3K video camera from Oregon Scientific for some, uh projects. (No, not our new porn site. ) If you've got one of the older ATC2K cams, you can mod it a bit to avoid dropping another C-note on the new model.

Hack-A-Day friend [Nathan] showed us some of his results creating his own High Dynamic Range images. Three normal Low Dynamic Range photos. One is under exposed, one is normal and the third is over exposed to capture the information needed.

Droplet photography (link translated from French) often produces simple and beautiful images, but timing the exposure can be tricky. Snapping the photo too early or too late can cause you to miss the action, which only lasts a fraction of a second.

This particular unit has been de-comissioned in 2005, but it's still interesting. JACARA set up a webcam on Antarctica. They used an off the shelf Axis NetEye200 camera, mounted it inside a pair of hemispherical plastic domes along with a small electric heater and thermostat to keep the device from freezing.

You may not of heard about this in the news (it’s kind of one of those underground media stories) but gasoline is getting sort of expensive. We fear it might put a damper on one of the greatest pastimes ever: road trips!
We at Photojojo love road trips because they’re a photographer’s dream: each new mile is a photo waiting to happen.

This is my first instructable and it came about based out of need for a simple and portable way to photograph small products. I had seen various instructables like this that were made from a cardboard box which are great but not very professional or durable.

We've seen plenty of lens hacks, but [Koray] took things in a new direction. Rather than buy lens chips for modding all of his manual lenses, he added a lens chip inside his Digital Rebel 300D (aka XT).

[Wallace] sent in this awesome project built by [Julius Von Bismarck]. The "Image Fulgurator" is the result of mating an optical slave flash with a camera body turned projector.
