This is the Lytro, a bizarre and radical new concept in digital photography that lets you snap an image now, and worry about focusing it later.

Pre-orders just opened today, and you can grab one for as little as $399 (I’ll take two!). But before you click the order button, make sure you have a Mac – because Lytro doesn’t work with Windows computers yet.

MIC Now Selling 3-In-1 Camera Connection Kit for iPad

Apple’s Camera Connection Kit for iPad is a pretty useful set of dongles for the on-the-go photographer, but it does seem somewhat redundant: why did Apple need to display two different dongles when it could have designed one dongle that read USB and SD cards simultaneously?

Such was the thinking that lead us to admire August’s 2-in-1 Camera Connection Kit for iPad, which smashed together both dongles into one converging, dual-purpose accessory.

Pretty neat, but the fancy lads over at MIC have just one-upped the 2-in-1 Camera Connection Kit… literally. Meet the 3-in-1 Camera Connection Kit for iPad, replete with a USB port, an SD card slot and a microSD card reader.. all for only $29.90. Take that!

We know you like to shop. We know you like gear. And we know there’s a honking big holiday season coming up.

Over the past year or so, we’ve run across some drool-worthy gear we think would make perfect gifts for the holidays. And, in the spirit of holiday sharing, we whipped up this handy guide you can print out, laminate and take with you while out foraging. (Come to think of it, laminating can be expensive. Maybe just put it in a binder.)

A metrosexual is a man who has a strong concern for his appearance (or any concern for his appearance, really). He typically craves the most stylish clothes and home accessories. He’s form-over-function. He keeps fit, takes care of himself, and he wants you to know it. Here are some metrosexual-worthy gift ideas.
