BLACKRAPID RS-5 FirstZoom Review

Posted on August 25, 2010 by Peter du Preez
Untitled-2

Craig Ferguson is a well respected cultural photographer in Taiwan, his experience brings a measure of perspective to some basic camera equipment that we all could use. BLACKRAPID has become the camera strap of choice for pro’s and amatures alike. It brings both convenience and comfort to something that people just expect to be normal. The RS-5 is anything but normal. It has a special design allowing the camera to move along the strap, and yet hang comfortably. It has padding which stays in place, and extra pockets to keep all the trinkets you need when roaming around shooting pics. For more info check out Blackrapid.com

Phottix Atlas Wireless Flash Trigger – Outdoor Review

Posted on June 23, 2010 by Peter du Preez

Craig Ferguson tested the Phottix Atlas Wireless Trigger engineering samples in a real life scenario. The flashes were staggered along a path and they fired off as Betty rode past on the bicycle. The time was early dawn before sunrise. The filming done with the HD DSLR Canon 7D made the scene much brighter than it was in real life.

Phottix has since improved the active range of the triggers to well over 100m.
