DIY Defender Cargo Barrier
I have decided to go for a sliding partition rather than a metallic barrier for the following reasons:
1- Reducing the cabin volume —-> increasing the efficiency of the AC
2- Better visibility
3- Access to the cargo area from within the cabin
4- Reduce noise coming from the back side of the truck!
Partition is made from polycarbonate, 40 times stronger than glass.

The LG Optimus 3D smartphone will retail for AED3,000, Sharaf DG said
Dubai consumers will soon be able to get their hands on LG’s Optimus 3D smartphone, when the device goes on sale at Sharaf DG stores later this month.
The handset, which was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in February, features a 4.3-inch 3D-capable touchscreen that uses parallax barrier technology so users don’t need special glasses to see the effects. A dual-lens camera also allows users to capture 3D images and footage, that can be uploaded to a dedicated YouTube channel.
Dubai-based electronic retailer Sharaf DG confirmed the product will be available for sale at its outlets from the end of August and will retail at AED3,000 ($816.71).

Dubai Downtown at dusk | UAE
Dubai Downtown Gigapan at dusk | 320 megapixels, August 1, 2011
Dubai Downtown GigaPan was shot on August 1, 2011 at around 19:35. It was stitched from 45 images taken with the Canon 550D (t2i) and the Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens at 200mm. I also used the Manfrotto Tripod 055CXPRO3 Carbon Fiber + Manfrotto 468MGRC4 Magnesium Hydrostatic Ballhead. As for the pano head, I used the GigaPan Epic Pro robot.
The shoot took 5 minutes and the resulting GigaPan is equivalent of a 320 Megapixels image.
Regarding the aspect ration, I have decided to go for a 1:1 ratio for a change. So far i like it so much. What to you think?
Please let me know by leaving your comments
A big thank you to Charbel for offering his place for the shooting.
