Here are some more information for Leica Lens:

I recently purchased a Canon Powershot SD 1200-IS. It is a small handheld camera that comes in a variety of vibrant colors. So far, it's a great camera.

The lens is powerful, even though it's compact. I love it for the most part, though I wish it could get a little closer for my macro shots. The flash is strong and it takes decent pictures in low-light situations. I think this camera is best for someone who wants a point-and-shoot, but also someone who wants to be able to customize the settings. They have a Program function, where you can customize things like the ISO, zoom, width of pictures, pixels, colors, etc.

Overall, this is a great camera by Canon, with images coming out crystal clear. The camera does best in situations in outdoor light. I took a picture of a flower outside, and it looks professional. I put it on the macro setting and got close to a bee pollinating the flower, and honestly it looks like it belongs in a magazine.

This was within 24 hours of purchasing it, which shows how easy it is to master.

The camera has many outdoor settings such as kids, fireworks, night, sports, etc. These are great for beginners who aren't sure what setting is necessary for their environment. The camera is economical with a price of $150 when I got it.

Another feature that I really appreciate is the IS. IS means image stabilization. This is a great help for people with shaky hands, such as myself. It's hard to get a blurry picture because of hand movement with this camera. I do not regret buying this camera at all.

Fathers Day Gifts Sure to Please Your Dad

Ask any father what he wants for Father's Day, and the answer will be "Not another tie or golf club". It's easier to buy gifts for moms, considering there are so many options available for women. But when it comes to buying Father's Day gifts for dads, it's easy to run out of ideas. What will dads like to get on Father's Day?

Well, it depends. Does your dad like to read? Or is he one of those types who can spend hours with maps? Here are some ideas for great customized Father's Day gifts sure to please your dad, depending on if he is a(n):

1. Environmentalist Dad Belkin conserve : Here is a gift idea for dads trying to make all those subtle changes to our lives that conserve energy. By now, everyone has heard that a lot of energy is wasted on all those devices that sit drinking up juice while in "stand-by" mode. This power strip allows you to really turn off six of its eight outlets using a tiny remote control (you can glue it to the wall - I think it's mostly there to save you the energy of bending down to the wall outlet). Two plugs are left unswitched so you can keep the DVR or VCR (does anyone have those now?) on while you're out or away.

2. Boy Scout Dad Swiss Tech 6-in-1 Key Multi-Tool : We love the Swiss Tech key tool. It folds into a key-like object that fits unobtrusively on a key ring. It doesn't take any space, looks just like a key, and yet has so many features that any boy scout, pre-adolescent or middle-aged will be pleased. In a small space, you have a Phillips and regular screwdriver, a bottle opener, a knife, and a file. Sure, you wouldn't want to use these tools to renovate your kitchen, but like any pocket knife, all that stuff comes in handy often enough to be glad you've got it. My wife and I both have one and never travel without it. In polished stainless steel. A bit pricey at $19.99, but worth every penny.

3. Book Lover Dad Daddy's Little Girl: Stories of the Special Bond Between Fathers and Daughters by Gregory E. Lang If you have a daughter, it's hard not to get a little emotional reading this collection of anecdotes compiled by Gregory Lang (author of more pithy books like "Why a daughter Needs a Dad: 100 reasons"). This is not a "deep" book, but it does get at a lot of important truths about the importance of a father to little (and big) girls. Sometimes, that's also what dads need to give an extra push to their efforts. We all need to know that all those hours pushing swings and replacing toy batteries are the foundation of an enduring relationship that doesn't end suddenly at adolescence. There has been plenty of research that shows this to be true, but Mr. Lang, in this compilation of his own and others' stories relates how this plays out in different ways. For the dad of a young girl, it also gives a not-always-comfortable (read morbid) look into the future when kids are grown up and dad is looking at what he's leaving behind as a legacy rather than what he is building in the here and now.

4. Cartophile Dad Hometown Map Jigsaw Puzzle Centered On Your Home : From the New York Times store, this unique, made-to-order jigsaw puzzle features a map that centers on your home. The map, an extract from the renowned U.S. Geological Survey, has fascinating details and provides names of main roads, contour lines, transport infrastructure, water features, vegetation, and shows notable buildings/structures. Personalized for $44.95.

5. Gamer Dad Wii from Nintendo : Permission to buy a video game console. It now seems universally permissible to add a Wii to the family entertainment options. Either dad already has one or he's waiting for you to say it's okay to let one in the house. Now with the addition of Wii Fit, even moms can rationalize getting in a round of Mario Tennis before dinner. Unfortunately, if you don't have a strategy, it's still impossible to walk into a store and buy one of these. You'll either have to scope out deliveries at your local electronics store or plan to pay $100 over the MSRP to buy one online. We have found no other real options.

6. Traveling Dad "Bushnell Powerview 12x25 Compact Folding Roof Prism Binocular (Black)" (Bushnell) : With slightly more magnification (12X versus the usual 10X) in a compact package, these are good portable binoculars for travel dads and sporting events. At around $20, this is a great little binocular.

7. Beer Lover Dad Krups BeerTender : For the beer lover, the Krups BeerTender, a countertop "kegerator" for the 5 liter minikegs of Heineken beer is just perfect to give you the perfect pour every time. The tap keeps the beer at 39 degrees Fahrenheit. Some models come with a 30-days freshness countdown counter. Attention: meant only to be used with Heineken mini-kegs.

8. Photographer Dad Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5K 9MP Digital Camera with 10x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom Time to get a new family digital camera. We've had great luck with our little Panasonic Lumix D9 with its Leica lens. Now Panasonic has a new model that shoots at 9MP (far more than mortals actually need), but also sports HD output. The optical stabilization is top notch and it has a 10X zoom. Only $350.

Father's Day is not just about burnt toast, breakfast in bed, or that brand new tie. It's a day for children to express their love and gratitude for the unsung hero in their lives.

which lens are better: Leica or Zeiss?

I have an f1.4 t planar 50mm Carl Zeiss F mount lens for nikon, it is fully manual and produces fairly crisp images. I have been looking around to see if Leica 50mm are built with finer glass quality and could blow zeiss out of the water, but I had reached no concrete conclusions. A leica for nikon cameras is very expensive, and hard to find, is it worth it?

You have a 50mm f1.4 Carl Zeiss lens! That is a superb piece of glass, even if Leica produce a better lens the difference is only going to be marginal.
