Limited Edition Pentax K-x Robo

 For beginners, handling a digital SLR can be a daunting task. To ease the green horns into the art and complexities of photography, the Pentax K-x Robo might be of help. Announced just last month, the Pentax K-x was deemed a reliable and decent entry level digital SLR. Operating at 12.4 megapixels with HD video capability, the camera also comes with other features and functions such as PENTAX auto pictures and scene mode. All specs aside, the K-x is due to be released in a variety of colorways, and the latest K-x Robo is a colorful piece inspired by Kore Ja Nai robot toy. The camera is dressed up in the same shades as its figurine counterpart and also has the same penned in face. The camera is limited to just 100 units and is available exclusively at the Pentax online store.

3D Power Socket



One plug is not enough. In the USA, two is not enough. Everywhere in the world, basically, more power plugs are needed. So what did ArtLeb do? They built it into the plug itself, rather than relying on the ever-present power strip. And it’s got blue on it! And it uses the Art Lebedev logo on it! I’m pretty excited by it. I’m gonna need it in three-prong, please.
Hiding in the wall until the right moment to strike, the Rozetkus sits flat unless more than one plug is needed. And look at the concepting! it goes all over the place! Normally I’m not into building everything all at once into the base product, aka I love extensions. But this is the right stuff.
The right stuff!

Miranda Art

Miranda is a surface tile with hairs that can be manipulated to create different shades in the surface. How many times have I done this with suede? This is much cooler.
