The Virtues of Lamp Shade Posts
Who would have thought?
According to David Pogue's NYT column this week, lamp shade posts can be of surprising virtue to a photographer. I quote:
The tripod mount on the bottom of most digital cameras has exactly the same thread diameter as a typical hotel lampshade post. In a pinch, you can unscrew the lampshade and use the exposed screw on the lamp itself to steady your camera.
And no. I'm not going to wonder about how exactly he figured this one out. Draw your own conclusions.

Hi everybody,
Can somebody suggest me a better online shopping website where I can buy uniquely designed lighting for the home at reasonable prices. However, I searched the web and find the resources i.e.
http://www.topestore.com
http://www.latest-beauty-tips.com
http://www.safeshoppe.com
where the prices are compartively low.
Please suggest if you have some other better resources.
