ViDi Action Camera was born out of a Kickstarter Project.

The Kickstarter project raised a total of US$151,880 out of their initial goal of US$25,000 from 1,253 backers. They have started shipping the camera in December 2015.

The Lomography’s Lomo’Instant was borned out of a Kickstarter Project two years ago. It garnered 8,448 backers with a total of US$1,118,333 pledged out of their initial goal of US$100,000.

There are several designs available and prices range between S$168 and S$258 on Lomography Online Store.

I am intending to mount my Nest Cam outside my new house. If you are like me and intend to mount it outside, you would probably need three Nest Cam accessories.

Unfortunately, all three accessories doesn’t ship to Singapore directly from Amazon and hence you have to use a freight forwarder like HopShopGo.

Bought the Nest Cam from Amazon for US$183.90 (S$265). It qualifies for the free AmazonGlobal Saver Shipping and hence shipping to Singapore is free.

US$183.90 is not the lowest price, it went down to $168.99 during Black Friday 2015 but unfortunately, I miss out on that promotion.

Canon Online Store (Singapore) was officially launched last week on the 22nd September 2015 as a one-stop e-commerce platform offering the full range of Canon consumer products and services to customers at their convenience.

The online store accepts both local and foreign credit cards for delivery to customers residing in Singapore.

I always wanted to get the Sony E 30mm F3.5 Macro Lens (SEL30M35) ever since I bought the Sony NEX-3N from Amazon last year to do some closed-up product shots.

The SEL30M35 is retailing for S$399 in Singapore but I learned that it is much cheaper in Japan.

The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV will be available in Singapore from 16th July 2015 for S$1,399. It is the successor to the Sony Cyber-shot RX100 III which was released last year in June 2014.

Despite it being a successor, the megapixel count and optical zoom range remains the same: 20.1MP and 2.9x respectively.

Foldio 2 is a portable lightbox that you can easily bring around for product shots. It can be easily folded and assembled using it’s simple magnetic structure.

Foldio 2 was successfully funded on Kickstarter on the 17th January 2015 after raising US$541,991 out of their initial goal of US$50,000 from 6,729 backers.

The GoPro 3-Way is retailing for S$100 in Singapore.

Similar to the GoPro Jaws (Flex Clamp) and GoPro The Handler (Floating Hand Grip), I got the GoPro 3-Way from Amazon for US$69.99 (S$94). For the GoPro 3-Way, it is only slightly cheaper which is about S$5 but it still qualifies for the AmazonGlobal Saver free shipping.
