SUB-AQUA MUSIC
FINIS SwiMP3 2G MP3 PLAYER
What’s better than soaking up the sun
while splashing in a crystal-clear turquoise
sea? Listening to favourite tunes in equally
crystal-clear digital audio! This funky
underwater MP3 player won’t give you
earache – it doesn’t attach to your ears.
It clips on to goggle straps and sits on
the cheekbone, so no need for ear buds or
headphones. With capacity for 500 songs
and an 8-hour battery life, it’ ll be pumping
out music long after you’ve towelled down.

iPod, PDA, or even handheld gaming
devices such as the PSP and the
Nintendo DS. Cloudy day? Just
plug it into your laptop and it’ ll
recharge in a couple of hours.

RETRO SNAPPER
LOMOGRAPHY
LA SARDINA BELLE STARR
Retro cameras are all the rage, but
this elegantly ornate piece of kit draws
inspiration from the 1880s, not 1980s.
Developed by cult camera manufacturer
Lomo, the Belle Starr ’s oxidised metal
body, intricate engraving and larger-than-
life flash kit will set you apart from other
snappers. Taking standard 35mm film, its
extra wide lens will be ideal for panoramic
coastal shots and an easy-to-use focus
setting will make even Wild West snaps
look as sharp as a dead-eye duelist.
