And anything that makes artificially-incompatible things mix and match is a winner for us.

The LumoPro Hot Shoe Universal Translator comes with a male hotshoe that connects to the camera, and a female that connects to the flash. In the middle, the little cube has a PC socket—to trigger it—and a 3.5mm mini-jack socket to connect to additional flashes to blind your object with light. [Product Page via Wired]

But with the Brando 3-Axis Bubble Level Cube that fits in any hot shoe mount, photographers can conveniently double check every possible angle of their camera before snapping a shot. Priced at just $11, it's far cheaper than getting one of my legs shortened by half an inch. And I'm guessing it'll save me a lot of time arguing with my HMO, too. [Brando]
