And now I am just waiting for some clear dark skies to finish off the fine tuning so that it can start turning out some big field of view deep-sky images. Early signs are that the cameras perform well, like a 10-Megapixel version of my 6-Megapixel workhorse camera SXVF-M25C. The Paramount tracks perfectly, I have never seen tracking to better than half a pixel all through the night before. So now it’s all in the lap of the Gods. Will I be able to take mini-WASP images of this year’s winter wonders? The next few months will reveal all

 By Greg, on September 18th, 2011% By Greg, on February 28th, 2011%My Scientific Artist web site launched today I will be moving all subject matter relating to things photographic in the coming weeks. By Greg, on January 1st, 2011%Happy New Year to you all. Already things are building up for this New Year. I have been asked to judge deep-sky images submitted to a large Astrofest meeting to be held in Tenerife later this year. Also on the astronomy theme, I am working with an entrepreneur to set up an observatory atop a mountain in Cyprus – keep watching Concept2Innovation regularly to keep up with developments. I already have a number of bookings for my “Magic of Photography” presentation as well as several bookings for my specialist DSLR courses – so 2011 is set to be a busy year. By Greg, on December 29th, 2010%The book of the year as far as I’m concerned – a rather massive 609 pages – but EVERY page is a gem, a mine of information, and it simply gets better as you read on. What is it? It is Alan Sugar’s Autobiography “What You See Is What You Get“. This is compulsory reading for any would-be entrepreneur. Or maybe you already think you’re an entrepreneur? Then I suggest you read this book and think again!!! Great stuff By Greg, on December 18th, 2010%Novatech 4-monitor support system arrived at the New Forest Observatory today By Greg, on September 30th, 2010%I am developing a more compact high-power D.C. light source for high speed videography. Return regularly to this page to keep up with the latest developments. This revolutionary new product will be the next piece of innovative Parker Technology to be commercially available. I also took early retirement from the University of Southampton this month so I am now 100% Parker Technology By Greg, on February 12th, 2010%Discussions with high-speed video guru Tony Allen showed me a gaping hole in the market for another light-based product. Conventional lighting sources give a clear and unwanted modulation of the light intensity of illuminated subjects that are being video recorded at high speed. Parker Technology has a completely flicker-free light source for your high speed videography. Available with individual heads rated at 300W (you can have as many heads as you want illuminating the subject) Parker Technology can provide you with a high-tech solution to this particular problem. Interested? Contact Greg on: greg@concept2innovation.com By Greg, on March 18th, 2009%Parker Technology introduces a new product for photojournalists and semi-professionals – a quick release handle to take the weight of your bulky DSLR/zoom lens combo off your neck. The quick release attachment has a safety device to prevent unwanted accidental disconnection of the handle – but we do advise that you also always carry the camera with the safety strap wrapped around your wrist as well! You can never be too careful with your expensive gear. The handle is manufactured in smooth black-anodised aluminium and is a nice ergonomic fit essential when carrying your photographic kit for extended periods of time. 
If you have any questions, wish to purchase your own quick-release camera handle, or require any further information, then please contact Greg at: greg@concept2innovation.com By Greg, on November 20th, 2008%Just took delivery of the Manfrotto 701HDV Professional Fluid Head for video cameras and it is a perfect match for the Sony NEX-VG10E video camera and the beefy Manfrotto 058B tripod. I am going to have a great deal of fun with this kit |
