Techs best My 10 favorites of 2017.
LOS ANGELES — A camera that changed my life (for real!). A printer that I not only didn't scream at, but actually love. And Amazon's Alexa, with stellar hi-fi sound, in the form of a Sonos speaker.
Those are a handful of my favorite tech devices of the year.
It's time again for my annual look back at my favorite tech gadgets, devices and services, for 2017.
In the number one spot is the camera that I contend changed my life because I'm able to take photos in a different way. The Sony RX10IV ($1,700) has a whopping 24mm-600mm zoom lens -- think photographers at a sporting event with massive lenses -- in a compact camera body. The focus is fast and sharp. Because it can snap hundreds of photos in seconds, I’ve pulled off street shots I never knew were possible. You'll never be able to do this stuff with your iPhone. It's a great way to dramatically improve your travel, wildlife and street photos. (For a gallery of RX10IV images, check out some samples here.)
