Gitzo Padded Tripod Bag GE10P Review

I had been looking for a nice quality padded case for once-owned Gitzo G1588 Monopod with a Wimberley Quick Release Clamp mounted. I thought the Gitzo Padded Tripod Bag GE10P might be the answer. Unfortunately, the GE10P is about .5″ too short for that specific application. It does however work very well for the newer […]

Think Tank Photo Airport Check In Review

I love change (positive change of course), but changing out my 9-year-old leather Port laptop case was not an easy one for me. I live with my laptop and had grown very familiar with the old case. But it was time for a change – and the Think Tank Photo Airline Check-In has now become […]

Lowepro SlipLock Pouch 60 AW Review

The Lowepro SlipLock Pouch 60 AW is sized to fit a pro camera body – precisely the reason I first purchased one. I needed protection for a backup Canon 1-Series camera body.

Lowepro Toploader 65 AW Camera Case Review

Lowepro has replaced the Lowepro Toploader 65 AW with the Lowepro Toploader Pro 65 AW. It is even nicer than the previous model, but note that there is only one SlipLock attachment loop and the dimensions have changed.

Pelican 1535 AIR Hard Case Review

The brand name “Pelican” has become synonymous with the word “indestructible”. While not literally bulletproof, the figurative use of this word seems a good descriptor for Pelican’s full line of hard cases. Simply put, Pelican hard cases take the worry away. The Pelican 1535 AIR Hard Case is dimensionally very similar and purposefully identical to […]

Lowepro Toploader Pro 75 AW Camera Case Review

If you find me shooting, you will probably also find at least one Lowepro Toploader Pro hanging from my shoulder or attached to a Lowepro Belt I am wearing. These cases are by far my most-used. Why? Foremost, because the toploading holster-style cases offer fast access to a ready-to-use camera while providing excellent protection in […]
