ZaZa Gallery Review

April 2nd, 2010 Mike Criss 5 comments

I just received my Canvas Print from ZaZa Gallery. I must say I am very impressed! The colors and contrast really pop and the quality of the work is excellent. I have ordered from MPIX, Bay Photo and Costco. I have receive canvas, stand-offs, print and mounted on poster board. I think I just found my new favorite way to display my photos.

Benro Travel Angel Review

March 28th, 2010 Mike Criss No comments

I have had my Benro Travel Angel Tripod for about a month now. It has changed the way I take photos. I take it everywhere with me, it is so light that I do not mind hiking with it. My big tripod (Manfrotto 055) with it’s large ballhead was just too heavy to hike with. I was even starting to leave it at home on my work trips. That changed a couple months ago when I took a trip to Metlakatla, Alaska and had to balance my Canon 5D mark II on a rock to get this photo.

Last week I packed my Benro on a trip to Juneau, Alaska. I took it with me to get some shots of Mendenhall Glacier and waterfalls next to it. No balancing my Canon 5D on a rock this time.

Here is a link to the tripod. Remember, it is a lightweight tripod not meant to handle your huge lens. It does the job of a great lightweight tripod for traveling and hiking.
