Fun with SmugMug San Diego

February 5, 2012 in Events,Products,Uncategorized with 2 Comments

Event MessengerWe’ve had so much fun working with the some photographers from SmugMug San Diego. A SmugMug User Group (SMUG) is a mug-to-mug gathering of photographers.

A SMUG is a place where you can learn, teach and meet up with other photographers who share a passion for photography. SMUGs are a great way to connect with other local photographers. With groups from Hawaii to London, SMUGs are all over the world.

A few months ago, we asked them to test a few products out for us and let us know what they thought. So, we gave them a handful of bags from our new line, the Event Messenger Series and what we got back was so much more than what we expected. The feedback was invaluable, the images were spectacular, the video was fantastic and the lasting relationship is priceless.

Make sure to check out the great work done by the participating photographers, Jason de Alba, Angela Powell Wolfe, Andrea Garvin, Tracy vanDam, and David Crewe.

Ins and Outs of the New Pro Messenger 200 AW Bag

October 27, 2011 in Uncategorized with 1 Comment

For a bag that looks so comfortable and blends in with the urban environment, the new Lowepro Pro Messenger 200 AW includes a lot of features. I’ve created two short movies that will help you decide if this “high-tech-retro” bag is for you.

First, here’s an overview that shows the basic features.

Now, since I shoot often with the 70-200mm f/2.8 zoom on camera body, I thought you might like to see an alternative way to pack the 200 AW. In this case, I use one of the dividers to create a false bottom. In all honesty, this is just one of the numerous ways you can configure this bag.

There are two other models in the Pro Messenger family. You can learn about the entire line up by visiting lowepro.com, or by stopping by the Lowepro booth at PhotoPlus Expo.
