    Tiny Olympus VP-20

    Hello, I bought the pen-style VP-20 for recording short messages and then thought, why not try to use it to record bird sounds and I think it worked quite well for what it is. Attached is a recorded file converted from wav to MP3, and another version of the file but noise reduced in Audacity...

    Metabones, firmware for Canon EF to M43 adapter

    I did a separate anti-virus scanning on the file just a moment ago and there was no warnings, strange it was ok now but not yesterday during the down-loading process. So it seems it is ok.

Sorry to say, there is a slightly dim area in the middle of...

    Low current usb powerbanks

    Hello, I bought an XTAR PB2S, because it has a low current output mode. It is not water proof so it needs some diy protection if leaving outdoors. For a short test I had it running for 9hours in low power mode, without problems, then i shut it off. Anders
