Adorama Joe Farace Reporter Review Round-Up

This rectangular pack is big, black, and voluminous enough for a 17-inch laptop and a DSLR with pro telephoto attached, along with a couple of smaller lenses, flashes, and all sorts of accessories. Don’t let the $75 (direct) price fool you — it may be inexpensive, but this bag is tough enough for a working [...]

The interior is colored bright orange, for easy identification and retrieval of the item you’re [...]

But with a few more optional internal dividers, the OC-97 can also carry a ton of cameras and lenses for photography in a far-flung location. And though it’s soft-sided, it’s [...]

Kata GDC Rucksack R-101 Review Round-Up

A slightly downsized version of Kata’s most popular backpack, the R103, this one is just as tough and well thought-out. Bright yellow internal dividers help you see your gear more easily; integrated camera clips on the shoulder harnesses take the weight off your neck. Despite its smaller space it can hold a pro D-SLR with [...]

Lightware z300 Review Round-Up

The Lightware z300 Case is very protective and attractive. The zippered and buckled top has a Velcro’d-in zippered pocket. I needed to remove this pocket to get my Canon 300mm f/2.8 Lens + pro body to fit. Even so, the fit is snug – exactly what I was looking for. Quick release fastex buckle allows [...]
