The B+W 77mm XS-Pro UV Haze MRC-Nano 010M Filter is a general use, clear filter designed to absorb ultraviolet light and reduce the bluish cast of daylight. Aside from the reduction of unwanted blue casts, no additional coloration or contrast is created, and adjustments to exposure are not required while using this filter. To prevent internal ghosting and reflections while providing over 99.8% light transmission, each glass surface includes multiple layers of anti-reflection coating. This Multi-Resistant Coating (MRC) also offers greater protection to the filter substrate and helps it to stay clean for longer than with uncoated filters. The Nano coating associated with XS-Pro filters provides an additional eighth layer over the MRC, resulting in an improved beading effect when in contact with water for greater cleaning efficiency.

B+W filters are constructed from Schott glass for increased optical clarity and color fidelity. This filter features a thin brass filter ring to minimize the potential for vignetting while enhancing durability and jamming prevention. To further reduce the possibility of vignetting when this filter is in use, the filter ring's outside diameter is slightly larger than the actual thread size. This may prevent the use of some lens manufacturer bayonet hoods.

This UV Haze filter is also useful as a general protective filter to leave on lenses at all times. Such filters help to reduce dust and moisture from reaching your front lens element and provide additional protection in case of drops or situations where scratching could occur.

Designed for the selfie enthusiast, the island blue instax mini 70 from Fujifilm is a sleek camera characterized by a range of features for self-portraiture and sharing your instant credit card-sized prints. The camera's design incorporates a retractable two-element Fujinon 60mm f/12.7 lens that permits focusing as closely as 11.8" in macro mode. The optical real image viewfinder has a 0.37x magnification along with a target spot to aid with composition, and the front of the lens incorporates a small mirror to also benefit more accurate selfie compositions. Besides the standard automatic exposure control, with +/- 2/3 EV exposure compensation, the built-in flash can be used in conjunction with an automated exposure mode to adjust shutter speeds for enhanced background detail. A dedicated Selfie shooting mode also automatically adjusts brightness and accounts for the close-up shooting distance of self-portraits and a creative Hi-Key mode brightens the overall exposure for cleaner-looking skin tones. For self-portraits taken at longer than an arm's length, the instax mini 70 also features a tripod mount and a 10 second self-timer. Additionally, for sharing a print with someone, the 2 continuous photo self-timer mode will automatically shoot two frames within the self-timer's duration to provide you a pair of similar prints.

The new Panasonic HC-PV100 is a palm-sized, very light, 6 megapixel full-HD camcorder with functionality and audio and lighting controls required for professional videography. It has a 1/3.1-inch Back Side Illumination (BSI) sensor and a built-in LED video light outputting 300 lx at 1 metre.

The camcorder is built with a 20x zoom/F1.8 lens and a handle for shooting applications such as corporate work, weddings and field production. The sensor supports low light evening events such as receptions or corporate launches, and the dual SD card slots allow continuous recording. When the first card reaches full capacity, the system automatically switches to the second card, and hot-swap recording allows cards to be exchanged while shooting. Simultaneous recording captures data at the same time onto both SD cards as backup against data loss.

The HC-PV100 is designed for on-site acquisition with functions and enough versatility to support a sole operator. It weighs only 1.5kgs and has triple manual rings, with a focus ring, zoom ring and iris ring on the lens barrel for a fast, natural style of camera work. Two-channel XLR audio input terminals are on the body for sound recording, with support for external microphones requiring a phantom power supply up to audio equipment with +4 dB output.

Recording formats are MOV/MP4 AVCHD with MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 compression. An illuminated LED ring on the side of the camcorder shows when it is recording, also convenient for one-person operations when the cameraman is also the presenter, for example. A colour conversion and diffusion filters, 3.0-inch wide LCD monitor and blur suppression from wide angle to zoom shots via the 5-Axis HYBRID Optical Image Stabiliser are other single-operator supports.
