Totally Geeked Out-Yes that is me!

Canon 1D Mark IV

Today was a crazy day of announcements. First, Canon announced a replacement for my current 1D Mark III-the 1D Mark IV. Rob Galbraith has added a post here that goes through all of that detailed technical stuff. Vincent Laforet has added a new movie similar to Reverie, only this time he used the brand new 1D, check out Nocturne on his blog. There will be a new Wi-Fi transmitter available for this camera that can be controlled with an iPhone, now my two favorite gadgets can unite and rule my world.

Then along came Apple…and a new iMac. Not that this is a “stop the presses” announcement, but it is looking like a stepping stone to a brand new 30 inch monitor from them. In addition to the iMac, Apple announced their new Magic Mouse a product that will allow me to have the functionality of my laptop’s touch pad on my desktop. Geeky Jay very happy today.

And the final announcement, I received word from Nature’s Best Magazine that I am a Highly Honored Photographer in the 2009 Nature’s Best Photography Windland Smith Rice International Awards. I made it through the finals and to the finish line. The image they selected has a pretty funny story attached to it, so you will have to buy the issue when it comes out this fall for more information. I will post more info after the publication is released.
