Mirror-less Need Not Be Bag-less With Sirix

With the increased interest in mirrorless camera systems we have come across a problem here in the shop - some of the traditional camera bags are just wrong for them. Either made for DSLRs and too big or made for compact purse cameras and too small. and the shapes could be all wrong as well.

Well, we've got a new line in Sirix bags that may go some way to addressing this. They are labeled as a mirrorless snoot bag and a compact zoom case - but they really come down to day bags for a tourist to take a mirrorless camera, a spare card, and a battery.

As usual, there are straps and belt loops and a small rain cover buried in the design. They are padded, and well-made. And they are cheap - $ 22.95 and 24.95.

No excuse now for hauling your Olympus in an old handkerchief or relegating the new Panasonic to the toe of a footy sock. Show a little class - buy a bag.

Sun Power Battery - Sirix

If you are a person who uses your tablet, mobile phone, or other modern communication device a lot, you will eventually run out of electricity and place to recharge it. Then you will either have to revert to smoke and drum signals or find some more juice.

Here's the answer - a solar-powered storage battery that can feed the volts out through normal and mini-USB ports. In from the sun, out to your phone - how cool is that!

Still won't pay for the credits on the phone and still won't protect you from the rexting pests, but at least you won't be out of touch.

The basic battery in there is a Li Polymer type that contains 5000mAh. It will let out 5VDC from the two USB ports at 1A. the solar charging is done at 5V and 200MA.

You get three cords and a carabiner with it. All in a rubber-coated brick. With an LED torch built-in.

Now you're even more independent on holiday.
