Are you a little too used to seeing blurry photos of your kids and pets with red-eyes? Do the buttons on the back of your camera remain a mystery to you?
If you nod affirmatively to any of these, or if you just want to spend more quality time with your favorite photographer, you may be in need of one of Brockit Inc.
