March 8, 2017 SureFire FirePak Mobile Light Review

  These days I am becoming a photography minority. Why? Because I rarely use my phone to take photos or videos. I have tens of thousands of dollars’ worth of photography equipment that I perversely insist on using to take photos and videos with. Research shows that I am definitely in the minority, however, with [&hel [Read more...]

February 3, 2017 Vanguard Heralder 51T Rolling Backpack Review

Vanguard Heralder 51T Review A few months ago I flew to a different country to shoot a wedding. I needed to pack wedding related gear, which for me meant two DSLRs with 24-70mm f/2.8 and 70-200mm f/2.8 zoom lenses along with a few primes (macro and portrait primes). I also carried a collapsible reflector, two […] [Read more...]

January 20, 2017 Oben CT-3535 Carbon Fiber Tripod + BE-208T Ball Head Review

  When most most people enter into photography they tend to be more focused on the obvious; cameras and lenses. That’s as far as many go, but if you become more invested in photography there are a few essentials that become necessary. A good tripod is one of them. I’ve got several of them, but […] [Read more...]

January 13, 2017 Cotton Carrier EV-1 Strapshot Camera Holster Review

  One of my favorite things to do as a photographer is hike in beautiful places and take pictures. I’ve carried camera gear in a wide variety of bags and with a number of different carry systems. The greatest challenge for active photographers like me is to have a safe way to carry my expensive […] [Read more...]

December 30, 2016 Peak Design Slide Summit Edition Review

I’ll freely confess to having a bit of hate (no love) relationship with the standard camera straps that come with new cameras.  I’ve purchased no less than six new cameras in the past four years, and you can find the strap for each of them still in the original box with the plastic still around […] [Read more...]

December 7, 2016 Peak Design CapturePro Review

Part of what I do as a reviewer is connect with different brands.  I enjoy the process of building a relationship and getting a sense of a company.  When I began a new partnership with Simons Camera (a retailer in Quebec) I was asked if I had ever reviewed anything from Peak Design.  I hadn’t, […] [Read more...]

November 26, 2016 Mixcder ShareMe Bluetooth Headphones Review

ShareMe Concept I get invitations from various companies to review their headsets, headphones, and speakers pretty often (usually several invites a week). Because my primary review focus in on photography, I often decline those invitations, but I do typically take a few moments first to check out the product and see if it s [Read more...]

November 19, 2016 August WS150 and WS300 WiFi Multiroom Speakers Review

More than Just Bluetooth I got my introduction to Bluetooth speakers a few years back with a Bose SoundLink. I followed that with a Sony SRS- X5, and after I got a reputation as a reviewer I’ve reviewed and used a number of Bluetooth speakers from a variety of brands. As many of you know, […] [Read more...]
