As video recording devices get smaller, we’re getting to the point where we can easily record countless aspects of our lives. Think about skiing down a black diamond run and recording everything you experience from your point of view. Or maybe zip-lining through the jungles of Costa Rica or hiking through the Grand Canyon.

With the Pivothead HD recording sunglasses, capturing all of these experiences on video is not only possible but very easy. Just wear these stylish sunglasses or one of their other models and you’re on your way with effortless, hands-free video and audio recordings.

We tried out the Durango model pictured about and the videos turned out great. All of the controls are on the left side and are very easy to use, and as you can see the sunglasses look great so you’ll fit right in and look great as well.

The Pivothead unit we tested captures 1080p HD video @ 30 fps, along with 720p @ 60fps and 720p @ 30fps, and uses a 8MP Sony CMOS Image Sensor. You can use all sorts of settings to customize the type of videos or photos you’ll capture, including Auto, Continuous, Fixed, and Macro Focus Settings, and you can also get up to 16-shot rapid burst still photos and time lapse burst still shots at various intervals. Just experiment with the various settings and you’ll find what works best for different situations.

The sunglasses come with a handy protective carry case along with a USB 2.0 cable for easy transfer of your videos and photos. You’ll be packing it for all your vacations and we’re sure you’ll come up with all sorts of interesting ways to use these things.

Pivothead has recently reduced the price to $299 just in time for the holidays, and they are also running a Cyber Monday promotion for an additional $50 off + free shipping in the US. (promo code: CyberMondayOnly) Check them out for a great gift idea for the gadget lover on your list.

Even though summer is over, you always need stylish shades as part of your wardrobe. We tried out these new Sean sunglasses from Guess that are now available at Guess.com as a web exclusive. Features include a handmade acetate frame and a Gothic “G” logo in open detail on temples along with UVA and UVB protection. The CR39 lens is also scratch resistant.

The thing you’ll notice right away when you put these on is that the lens has less curve and more space between face and frame. The lenses are also on the larger side as well, so we found that looked great on guys with a larger and rounder face.

These sunglasses retail for $80 so they’re a solid value as well. The website is pretty cool as you can zoom in and see the sunglasses from all angles.

We tried the brown pair and they come in gray as well. These sunglasses are very stylish and should be a great addition to your collection.
