The BackLight from Mindshift comes in three sizes 18L, 26L and 36L but we will be focusing on the 18L in this review as this is the one that we received. The 18L has a gear profile of two standard DSLR bodies with lenses attached and 1–3 standard zoom lenses or two Mirrorless bodies with lenses attached and 3–5 lenses as well as up to a 13” laptop and a 10” tablet and space for your personal gear in the 5L front compartments, it takes up to a maximum lens size of 300mm f/2.8 or 150–600mm f/5–6.3 attached to a body.

Forget selfies, pictures of your cats and breakfast, this is a serious accessory for serious photographers. The ROTABALL-DPH from SUN-SNIPER is a double harness with ROTABALL connections featuring two free spinning steel ball-bearing ROTABALL connector, two back and neck friendly SHOCK-ABSORBER and two connectors blocking BLOKKER to prevent any accidental unscrewing.

The SpiderPro Dual Camera System v2 from SpiderHolster has been updated and improved to make an even more secure and comfortable holster with the option of carrying two cameras on your hip. With the brand new Lens Collar Plate you can safely carry long lenses too. The Pro2 Plate has been updated and can be attached to any professional DSLR, the new design has better balance and with a more secure pin and anti-slip rubber grips to help keep the plate in place.

Although I still cringe at the name ‘Streetwalker’, this series of bags has got you covered when it comes to safely travelling with your camera gear and the HardDrive V2.0 is no different.

The iM2875 Peli Storm Case has been designed to protect delicate and expensive equipment in transit. Not only is it waterproof the iM2875 is also dustproof, crushproof and if used with the foam inserts your precious gear couldn’t be in safer hands!

The Everyday Sling 5 is the smallest and lightest bag in Peak Designs’ Everyday range, best suited for organisation, transport, and quick-access to essentials, plus it can accommodate a camera, drone or everyday gear. It can be worn as an across-the-body sling or as a waist bag with the convertible strap, allowing for a quick-adjustment that can be loosened and then tightened again for accessing gear on the fly with one hand.

Peli has an excellent reputation for protecting your precious cargo in super-durable and tough cases, and the 1560 is no different: with two strong and secure double-step latches and rubber over-moulded handles, one on the side and one on the top. This case is waterproof and dustproof, ensuring your delicate camera gear is always protected from the elements and is rated IP67. It also has the ‘Peli Lifetime Guarantee’: if you break it, they replace it.

This super versatile tripod will allow you to get the shots you have only ever dreamed of before, with more positions available than the advanced karma sutra, the Vanguard Alta Pro 263AB 100 comes with tripod and the SBH-100 Ball head forming an unstoppable combination. With 26mm, 3 section aluminium alloy legs that adjust to 25, 50, and 80-degree angles it allows for extreme low angle photography, its features a Multi-Angle Central Column (MACC) System which allows the central column to move from 0 to 180-degree angles in variable vertical and horizontal

This tough little cookie comes from Peli who are known for being behind some of the world’s toughest cases and create virtually indestructible cases that are used by military and emergency services. The 0915 can hold 12 SD cards, 6 mini SD cards and 6 micro SD cards, it has a compact, slim profile of 141mm x 83mm x 22mm and internal dimension of 122mm x 57mm x 14mm, it is suitable to fit in your bag or pocket.

Often camera bags come in either a backpack or shoulder bag format, this is because when your hands are full of expensive camera you don’t want to be juggling a bag strap at the same time. So I was surprised when I saw that Peak Design had released an Everyday Tote bag.  Available in Charcoal or Ash, the bag comes with two FlexFold Dividers, an anchor for key tether, and a tripod band to secure a tripod. It is carry on approved by most airlines and is made from a waxed Kodra synthetic canvas with DWR coating for weather protection.
