Keeping Your Cables Organized

Dan Carr — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 22:48:00 +0000

Someone e-mailed me today with the simple question “how do you keep you cables organised?” My solution comes in two parts: 1. Buy the Et Cetera cases from Gura Gear.

Gura Gear Bataflae 26L Review

Dan Carr — Tue, 11 Jun 2013 07:02:26 +0000

It used to be the case that if you wanted a bag that worked well and was designed specifically for outdoor and adventure photography the pickings were slim. In the last few years though there has been a number of companies targeting this market and as photographers we’re now somewhat spoiled for choice. Gura Gear [...]

Canon put a development announcement out there and [...]
