Seen at WPPI – My 2nd Brain 11
02nd March 2017
Lightweight, Convenient and Protective
|
|
At this year’s Wedding and Portrait Photography International expo, I spent several hours talking to vendors of cameras, equipment, accessories and services. The people at the Think Tank booth, gifted me a small accessory for everyday use. | |
|
|
This accessory goes by an unorthodox name: My 2nd Brain 11. I suppose the name suggests that all of your necessities can be easily kept in this single case.
The “11” refers to the size of a tablet or notebook that it can hold, in this instance an 11″ model of either. Load up the case with what you need, throw it over your shoulder and you’re ready to attack the world. |
|
|
|
The inner pocket is well padded and provides protection for my iPad. The outer pocket is perfect for holding my cell phone. A non-zippered pocket on the reverse side conveniently holds standard letter-size papers. |
The case opens wide and has several elastic-mesh pockets for securely holding pens, business cards, notepads, more. The padded shoulder strap is fully adjustable. |
|
|
My 2nd Brain 11 comes in black and green. The suggested price of My 2nd Brain 11 is $85.
Think Tank also has larger My 2nd Brain cases for 13″ and 15″ tablets or notebooks. For more information, please visit Think Tank. |

Eye-Fi Card – wow!
23rd April 2011
Innovative New Feature Makes the Eye-Fi Even More Valuable
A few months ago, I ran into Ziv Gillat, one of the co-founders of Eye-Fi at a photography trade show. His company developed a set of SD-cards that can send images directly from your digital camera to your personal computer by way of a local wi-fi network.
For background information about these cards, you can read the original review of the Eye-Fi from a few weeks ago here.
To use the new capability which the company calls Direct Mode, I downloaded and installed an update to the included Eye-Fi Center software that is used to configure the SD-card. Using one of the dialogs, I added my iPhone and Android device to my list of supported wi-fi networks. Next I installed the Eye-Fi iPhone app from the iTunes website (and later the Android app from Market) and I was ready to give Direct Mode a try.
