Kenu Airframe

Kenu Airframe, which has been on the market for more than a year, seems to offer a pretty good solution in mounting a smartphone in a car. Kenu Airframe attaches smartphone on to the car air vent. It is compact and takes little space.

There are concerns with heat and moistures when mounting a smartphone on the car air vent. with that in mind, probably it is not a good idea to mount any electronics on the car air vent when the heater is on.

Kenu Airframe can be purchased at Apple Store, Kenu.com and other retailers.

During WWDC 2008 Keynote, Apple CEO Steve Jobs introduced iPhone 3G to the masses. People wants to know more about the new iPhone, and yet Apple only provides a little bit.

Canon HG10 Microphone Jack

Canon HG10 AVCHD Camcorder is equipped with a microphone jack.

Click picture for higher resolution version (1920×1080)

Canon HG10 Advanced Accessory Shoe compatible accessories:

  • DM-50 Directional Stereo Microphone
    Get near-professional quality sound for your movies with this shotgun stereo mic. Select from pure shotgun or shotgun + surrounding sound modes. Since the mic is powered by the camcorder’s power source, you remain cable free. Wind shields are included.
  • Video Flash Light VFL-1
    To be used with advanced accessory shoe combination video light & flash unit.
  • VL-3 Video Light
    The VL-3 Video Light connects to the Advanced Accessory Shoe and is powered directly by the camcorder.

Theoretically, it is possible to use both directional microphone and and the video light at the same time. Unfortunately there is only one accessory shoe in Canon HG10. It is a matter of “mounting” the microphone somewhere else. You can be creative.

In the continuing series of Canon HG10 review, we’re looking at the built-in Advanced Accessory Shoe. One thing that I am missing from the Panasonic HDC-SD5 and Panasonic HDC-SD9 is the availability of any expansion ports.

Three accessories that are Advanced Accessory Shoe compatible for Canon HG10 are:

  • Video Flash Light VFL-1
    To be used with advanced accessory shoe combination video light & flash unit.
  • VL-3 Video Light
    The VL-3 Video Light connects to the Advanced Accessory Shoe and is powered directly by the camcorder.
  • DM-50 Directional Stereo Microphone
    Get near-professional quality sound for your movies with this shotgun stereo mic. Select from pure shotgun or shotgun + surrounding sound modes. Since the mic is powered by the camcorder’s power source, you remain cable free. Wind shields are included
