Bags update

First post since May? That's not exactly blogging, is it? Sorry.

So, I will be posting some images soon, I promise. In the meantime here's an update on the bag situation. I have gone back to the CompuTrekker AW Plus. The Fastpack 350 has been slightly relegated to hold all my flash stuff. Why? One word: Comfort. The CompuTrekker is simply more ergonomically betterer and gooder. Fatter padding on the shoulder straps, wider straps, much better sternum strap, better lumbar support, and the handle is made of nice pliant rubberised material rather than hand serrating webbing. And I was able to carry a tripod in one of the side loops that I never realised was there before. I didn't think these things could make so much difference, but they do. Also, when it poured with rain before I left the Arts Centre for home after a day shooting parkour leapers (very cool people - more about that soon, too), I was able to pull out the CompuTrekker's integral waterproof cover and keep all that rain from moistening my gear.
