This ultra-sleek and compact backpack carries and protects a digital or film SLR with a 3½-inch lens attached, an additional lens, a small flash and accessories. The new Tamrac Adventure 6 Photo Backpack features a youthful, modern and sleek design that, for security, does not look like a camera bag. The lower section is a completely foam-padded camera bag compartment, while the upper section functions like a traditional backpack to hold a light jacket, lunch or other personal items needed on your next photo adventure. The foam-padded camera compartment has a weather flap and quick-release buckle for security and weather protection. Two mesh side pockets provide quick access to accessories and water bottles.

The LensPen is one of the most invaluable accessories a photographer can own. Its unique design makes cleaning your lens fast, simple and effective. On one end, a retractable soft brush sweeps dust and loose particles away from the glass. On the other end, a special dry cleaning compound is used to gently remove fingerprints and spots. The result is a crystal clear lens surface and better pictures in just seconds, a feat that other cleaning items just can't match.

The LensPen DigiKlear LCD Cleaning System has a special triangular tip that gives it the ability to clean the corners of many screens that would otherwise remain covered in dust and grime. The result is a crystal clear screen in just seconds, a feat that other cleaning items just can't match.

This 6-piece cleaning kit contains a Hurricane air blower, lens cleaning tissues, lens cloth, lens cleaning liquid, blower brush and cotton swabs.

When I was in college, I had a public speaking class where we presented about 'how to do' something. You could have presented on how to change the oil in a car or how to get A's on an exam. One student, it was a man by the way, talked about how to make cookies. His family owns a bakery and so he was used to making really, really good cookies. He gave several cookies to each member of the class and they were really, really good. I took that recipe home to my wife so that we could make some of them together. This is when I discovered that people who really cook, cook differently than the way that you and I cook.

Instead of having 2 cups brown sugar and 3 cups floor, it said, "0.5lbs brown sugar...." And he also specified in the recipe to make sure that you got the right kind of flour, etc or the weights would be off. I had never even heard of measuring by weights before that day.

Digital scales have again come to the rescue in this situation and have provided the answer to the public on how to cook better and more accurately. The advent of the digital kitchen scale has improved many a professional cook's kitchen and can improve ours as well.

The underlying basis behind the need for a digital kitchen scale is density. Density is how closely together molecules are to each other. Amazingly enough, water and alcohol can have different densities (even though they are both liquids). So can different kinds of flour or even sugar. Have you ever wondered if 1 cup of brown sugar meant: left fluffy, packed in, or really packed in hard? A digital kitchen scale easily answers these questions by providing you with the weight, which is a measurement totally independent of density or volume.

Aside from making cooking/baking more accurate, it is a lot quicker. Instead of getting out all of your cup measurements and tablespoons, teaspoons, doing conversions between all the units, you can use a digital scale. The digital scale allows you to measure anything, solid or liquid, and to get a perfectly accurate measure of the ingredients. Ever have the problem of thinking you scraped off too much butter from the cup measure? Does it dip a little bit into the cup measure? With a digital scale you are assured to get the right measurement every time in a fraction of the time that it normally takes.

I have used a digital kitchen scale for quite some time now, and I must say that they are much easier to use than all of my volume measurement tools. It is less messy and much more accurate. Instead of the time-honored cooking technique of 'adding a pinch' or some other method, I can reproduce results the exact same way each time I cook. It not only allows me to have variation when I cook, but it allows me to know how I varied. If I think that the cookies tasted extra good today, better than yesterday, than I will know exactly what I did differently.

There are many great digital kitchen scales out there. Make sure you look around for the one that is most reasonably priced, has a fair amount of resolution (accuracy), is durable, and definitely the one that looks good in your kitchen.
