The think tank sling -O- matic 20 is a mouthful, let me start with that! I will say this is the most impressive sling bag I’ve tried to date, and that’s a long list (incase DLSR sling, LowePro classifieds (both sizes), Kata 3n1-30). If you want a killer sling that’s well thought out, this is […]

I recently picked up a lens changer 3 from thinktankphoto. Well, I guess I shouldn’t say recently, I tend to take my time evaluating a product before I consider reviewing it because I want to see how I like the product after the initial “honeymoon” has worn off. For this reason my bag reviews generally […]

Edit: this post was done before I’d had the bag for long. I’ve since done a video review of this bag that’s more in depth. Check that out here. The video is also the header image you see above, click that and you’ll be able to watch the review here. Thinktank announced the retrospective line […]

I converted my 10-22mm to be able to be used on FF over the weekend. I wouldn’t call it a full conversion as it’s NOT and EF lens, and you CAN damage your FF camera (and possibly 1.3) if you’re not careful, so proceed at your own risk… But, taking canon’s rear baffle out and […]

^ That’s a video, so watch it for the meat of the review. The f-stop tilopa is an amazing backpack. I’ve had it for about a month now and I’ve yet to be uncomfortable wearing it, even with my entire kit packed into it just to see how it’d feel. It’s not winter and being […]

Finally got the video wrapped up for the classified 180. No pictures because I’ve already returned the bag to B&H. It’s a good bag, but fails on a few key levels that ruin it for me. The strap is terrible. Really, that bad. W/o much weight in the bag it’s uncomfortable. The $80 incase sling […]

I put this video together very quickly today just to show why L-Brackets are so nice. Yes, they’re expensive, and I know a lot of people wonder what the fuss is about and why you’d want to spend that much money for a clamp and bracket… But I can say it’s one of the few […]

Finally decided on a new bag. After MUCH hemming and hawing (is that even how you spell that?) I went with the Tamrac Adventure 4. It’s also called the 5534 and can be found here. It’s looking like a good decision. The only 2 issues I see with it right now are that it’s just a […]
