On an iPhone using iOS4 and having trouble sending photos?
Posted by Cameron in Apple, Internet, Just for Fun, Technology, iPhone on August 2nd, 2010
The last thing a photographer needs is to have trouble sending photos! I’ve been having a problem with my iPhone sending photos and while this isn’t a problem professionally (as I don’t shoot jobs on my iPhone) it has been bugging me. It appears to be a problem only with iOS4.
A workaround for me was to send the photo as per normal on my iPhone and then go back to the home screen and go to Mail then Mailboxes and then Outbox and you will see the email sitting in there. You can then click on the message and click ‘Send’ and it will send. Easy workaround but annoying when you send lots of pics!
The problem seems to be having a Gmail account set up in your mail accounts more than once. I had an Exchange account set up that was handling and syncing my Google apps account’s mail, contacts and calendar. I also had the same Google Apps account set up separately just syncing my notes back to GMail. As soon as I eliminated the second account that was just handling notes the problem was fixed.
So, in short – if seems as though if you have the same GMail or Google Apps account set up in multiple ways in your mail accounts it doesn’t play friendly when you want to send photos.
Let me know in the comments if this works for you! Good luck!

Craig Lowndes steers his Holden V8 Supercar around the Townsville track
Yesterday was race one of the 2010 Townsville 400 and Jamie Whincup once again finished first. I took the opportunity to set the 5D MkII (with 70-200 f/2.8L IS USM) down to shoot a quick demo 1080 24p HD video of the first lap from turn one while I was shooting with the long lens. Here’s a quick look – feel free to click here to watch in 720p or in the full 1080p res!
Building the Bugatti Veyron
Posted by Cameron in Just for Fun, Video on June 14th, 2010
Although I’ve never owned anything snazzier than a Holden WH Statesman (with a great 5.7L LS1 engine!) I do love great cars. The car I am really keen on getting (but probably never will) is a Mercedes C63 AMG but like many others my absolute dream car is a Bugatti Veyron. Watching Top Gear’s James “Captain Slow” May take one to 407 km/h (in front of more than a billion TV viewers) was really special and was really a defining moment for what many people call the greatest car ever made.
Enjoy the Top Gear video below AND a GREAT 4 part series of a National Geographic documentary on building the Bugatti Veyron

The majestic Wallaman Falls in full flow
Posted by Cameron in Just for Fun, Personal, Video on May 24th, 2010
I had the opportunity to make my first trip to Wallaman Falls today and even though I was covering a tragic BASE jumping death it still was great to see Australia’s highest waterfall with a single drop of 305m (1000ft). I spent a couple of minutes before I left shooting a quick bit of video on the Canon 5D MkII for you to see just how beautiful it is! If you would like to see it in 720P HD click on this link or you can see it in normal size below.
