I should put a Ricoh strap on it.

The Tamrac 5592 Big Wheels SpeedRoller 2X brings oversized wheels and a telescoping handle to the world of photo travel. Let's see how it performs.

The Phottix grip does have a metal strip for support. I believe I listed that on the specifications chart in my inadequate review.

The Phottix BG-5DIII battery grip doubles the battery life of the Canon EOS 5D Mark III and mirrors the functionality of Canon's BG-E11 battery grip. Does it perform on par with its more expensive competitor? Read on to find out.

Without a doubt, best comment of the year so far...

It's fine. More than adequate. See my comment above.

The main differences I see between the Lowepro you mentioned and the Tamrac is that the Lowepro's "hip belt wings" are larger and the pack's price is double that of the Tamrac's. By the way, I just...

Last backpack review I was lambasted for not mentioning a waist strap. So I add mention of it in this review, and now "waist strap" will not suffice and must be replaced by "hip belt?" A hip belt...

If you travel light, I think a smaller pack like the Kata Digital Rucksack I reviewed a month or two ago would suit you well. I alternate between that and the Evolution 9, depending on the demand...

That is a good point--I noticed they are thinner than the Kata straps I've tried. Although it didn't affect my experience, it most certainly can affect others with sensitive shoulders.

Read the review again and you'll find this in the 10th paragraph: "And just to avoid the avalanche of comments, yes, the Tamrac Evolution 9 is equipped with a buckled waist strap."

Haha! I'm actually a 30-year-old who plays Sunday beer-league ice hockey and had a knee operation last year, but I love this comment!

The Tamrac Evolution 9 Sling Backpack is do-it-all pro backpack capable of carrying everything but the kitchen sink. Read on for the full review.

If it "sucks", then you should probably invest a few grand in a professional system. That was the raw footage. Obviously, without audio and a little shake reduction in post, it will look fine for...

I'm having a difficult time figuring out what all the hullabaloo is about the price. The Gorillapod Focus/Ballhead X combo alone is $150, and most of you are saying that the entire kit--wheels,...

If you're a videographer on a budget, you should take a close look at the Cine System. On of our favorite kickstarter-funded projects it allows you to achieve smooth panning and zooming, as well as car or window-mounted shots with minimal fuss.

Placed 18^th in the challenge.

Yeah, that's my OM-N1. I fit my 5D Mark III in the bag regularly and the bag carries everything I need for most shoots, save a pro tripod.
