Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) June 14, 2012
NewsWatch recently aired a news story highlighting innovative products for consumers to keep their eyes out for. Tech and parenting expert, Scott Steinberg, joined the show to review these gifts.
The first product is an Automatic Paper Towel Dispenser from a company called Innovia which is a great addition to any kitchen. It has a sleek design so moms will love it and its amazingly easy to operate. All a consumer needs to do is hold their hand up to a sensor on the unit and it will dispense a single paper towel. If more towels are needed, they just hold their hand up longer until the correct amount of towels is dispensed. From a health standpoint, since the hands-free operation makes it unnecessary to touch the roll of paper towels, it reduces the risk of cross-contamination. It looks great and comes in three colors, stainless steel, black and white and has a suggested retail price of $ 99. For more information, head to the Innovia website at http://www.innoviahome.com.
Neato Robotics recently introduced a new automatic vacuum thats specifically designed for households with pets and allergens. Its called the Neato XV-21 and its the most powerful robotic vacuum on the market. While most robotic vacuums are mindless sweepers, the XV-21 is a true vacuum that intelligently maps a consumers room to cover the entire floor without bouncing off furniture. Using a laser-based positioning and path-planning system, the XV-21 continuously takes 360-degree images of the room and stores this information during the current cleaning run. It comes with a special Pet & Allergy Brush for quiet vacuuming and a High-Efficiency Filter for easy maintenance and stronger suctioning power. Consumers can purchase the Neato XV-21 at amazon.com and other retailers for 429.99. Neato Robotics also offers a lighter version of the XV-21, the Neato XV-12, which is available at Target stores nationwide for 399.99. For more information, visit neatorobotics.com.

A Few Helpful Tips For Taking Digital Photographs

Here I am going to run through a few tips for digital photography which will help you while out taking photographs or setting up a photo shoot. Some of you might know these but I am sure there is some here to help someone.
The standard digital camera has many settings and the setting that it generally is in when it is bought is the auto setting. The auto setting is the normal white balance setting for all cameras. People generally buy a camera and leave it on the auto setting all the time and never change it.
Now the problem here is that the auto setting is a bright and crisp setting which can sometimes leave your photographs feeling sharp and coldish.
For something a bit different change the setting on your camera to the cloudy setting especially if its a bright or sunny day. What this does is that it allows more red coloring to come through in your pictures which in turn makes your photographs feel warmer.
This is a nice tip to remember if you are taking pictures of a family member or child, especially outside. Try it for yourself. Take two photos of the same shot, one on the auto setting and one with the cloudy setting. Load them onto your computer side by side and check for the difference.
Another tip which most people don’t do but I recommend, is getting yourself a tripod. A tripod is a very handy and useful piece of digital camera equipment. Remember what I said earlier about the auto and cloudy settings above, taking two identical shots of the same subject using different settings. Well what better way to make sure no human error affects your pictures, and no matter what setting you are using the shots should be the same.
If you have spotted a great picture opportunity like a harbour with boats, find a location you are happy with. Set up the camera and tripod and take for example 4 shots on various settings then move to another location and do the same thing again. Remember that you can never take enough pictures as you can always delete the ones you don’t want.
All you are looking for is that one great shot but you might have to take 50 or more pictures to get it. But at least when you are deleting the photos you’re not happy with at the end, it won’t be due to shaky pictures or the camera not being held level.
I hope that these few tips for taking digital photography will help you in some way to achieving great shots and remember not to be worried about taking too many photographs. Change the settings, change locations and angles as you can always delete the ones you aren’t happy with.
