Hello all I need to be able to load DDs on location and am looking for an upgrade to my existing changing bag. Having picked myself off the floor when I saw the Harrison prices, I've now come up with these - Field Outdoor Tripod Tent Mobile Darkroom for LF - on eBay plus the Calumet Changing Room - ...

The Mini looks great - like a grown up version of my Micro with a tripod holder. But I suspect there may be more than one model with that name as there's no way I'd get the kit you list in the one I received.

Thanks very much for that Trevor. I think I'll need to visit a store to try out models/sizes but it's helpful to hear of your good experience with the range.

The BLACKJACKET from quietworks.com is great: light and packable; adapts very well to different cameras (see website for extreme limitations - n/a for your Toyo) and makes focusing easier than with a black sail; if you get hit by a shower you can keep dry while impersonating a Martian by wearing it ...

I'm not carrying much: a Walker Titan SF 5x4, a couple of standard-sized lenses, cloth, meter, loupe and sandwich (!) but when I am I really want the tripod (Velbon CF, Gitzo Mg head * thanks for that tip davejt3) to go on the back of the bag so I've headed towards LowePro. The Mini Trekker which ar...

No it wouldn't - I agree with the comments that Provia would be the closest from the East. I've also read that the Kodak g is close but has a tendency to colour shift early with long exposures - never tried it though. I was gutted 2 years ago when I couldn't get any more Astia F in the UK as, at lea...

Following a more general posting, I was wondering if anyone had experience of this head. I'd like to have the movements of a B&S plus a handle to hold onto 4kg of camera & lens while being able to lock the thing off one-handed. Has anyone on the forum got any experience, good or bad, of using one of...

To round this up and share my conclusions: dave_whatever's suggestion of the Mini Trekker AW hit the button for me with the trimmed down kit I carry, so that's a result. If I ever start carrying more then uniB's brilliant solution of the Redwing plus insert would be the way I'd go. Re. the head - da...

Thanks all for the really interesting responses. Gari concludes, like me, that Lowepro are the first port of call, others disagree. uniB's comment about the Photobackpacker with a Lowepro Pro Roller 1 Insert got me thinking about that in a rucksack, though I'm unsure why I'd also then want the Photo...

Until recently my kit has comprised a Wista DX with 2 average-sized lenses on Linhof boards (180/5,6 & 125/5.6), Sekonic meter, 5 DDs, digi compact plus the usual bits: darkcloth, lupe, sandwich (!) etc.. I've been happy enough with my Chapak camera backpack up to now with the exception of needing t...
