The Giz Wiz Goes To The Bild Show –— B&H Photo put on a huge show at Javits Center here in NYC. It was called Bild, and at the show a spokesperson told me Bild was Yiddish for ‘image’ It was a two day show on June 17 & 18. The show was free, but had to register online and pick-up a badge when you entered. You see video we shot there, and you’ll also see it seemed to be mainly aimed at people really into creative productions, with many gadgets retailing for over $100,000.
But I did find a couple of great gadgets under $400, like this amazing telescope, built for travel.
Info from the company: The Seestar S30 30mm f/5 Smart Telescope lets even novice users observe and capture images of the moon and planets, the sun, and deep-sky objects like nebulae and galaxies, without the need for bulky, complex equipment. Simply connect your phone or tablet and select the celestial object you want to see from among more than 4000 in the Seestar app. The telescope employs an air-spaced triplet apochromatic lens system and is equipped with light-pollution and solar filters. Wi-Fi, 2.4G and 5G make saving and sharing your captures easy, and the S30 also has Bluetooth and USB-C connectivity. And at just 8 inches long and weighing under four pounds, you can take it practically anywhere with a good view of the night sky. MSRP: $399.00

Chad’s Crappy Corner
It’s June and the winning theme, voted on by our loyal Patreons is Summer Time Gadgets.
Chad’s 2nd is the Sun Squad 4-Piece Towel Band Set from Target.
These colorful bands are designed to keep your towel in place when you’re at pool or the beach and it’s windy out. You’ll see exactly how they work on a beach chair on this week’s show. Chad paid $12.00 for the 4-Piece Sun Squad set. It contains two bands in a solid hue, one in a striped pattern, and one in a checkered pattern. They’re said to be compatible with most standard beach chairs and towels, allowing you to relax and enjoy your time at the beach in style. Made of Polyester material, 11.8in H x 2in W. Note that Chad said one of bands seemed to be fraying after just a single use.

Submit Your Gadget Warehouse Video & Win An Autographed MAD Magazine.
We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show!
1. Video can be ANYTHING about a gadget: I bought a piece of crap. I bought a gadget I love. I have an old gadget I can’t part with because it was ‘high tech’ years ago! Even a ‘What The Heck Is It? Gadget.
2. Videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long in Horizontal Format! Low production value is fine, but we need to hear you and see your gadget clearly! You can be in the video if you like.
3. Post your Video on YouTube and click ‘unlisted’ when you upload it if you want, but not “Private” or we won’t be able to see it. Send us the URL link from YouTube.
4. If we show your video (and we show 99% of them) and live in the US or Canada you’ll get an autographed current issue of MAD.) But no matter where you live outside of the US & Canada, I’ll autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo to you, scan it & email you a high res image. Just print it out, frame it, or just hang it up and no one will know it’s a copy. We’ve tested it out and fans say they look terrific!
