Really enjoying the pack after ordering on your recommendation. My only addition to the pack would be a strap to attach it to a suitcase handle, it feels like a fairly big missed opportunity at the price point but overall super happy, especially with the top quick-access pocket. Thanks for a great video!
@joshfenn 7 ай бұрын
Glad to hear the pack is working well for you! I’ve been really enjoying it too. It’s probably a bit too big to use as a personal item bag, but a luggage pass through is always a nice addition since it’s unobtrusive when not in use but still adds the option. Pretty sure they read these comments so hopefully they’ll consider down the road for future bags, thanks for sharing!

@joshfenn 8 ай бұрын
That’s great! I can’t remember exactly but I think I got mine in 2014, almost 10 years old already. Battery isn’t quite what it used to be but still happy with it overall, curious how long I can make it last at this point. Hoping to replace the laptop at some point soon though if the budget allows but we’ll see, new Mac announcement next week that could make things interesting.
@ewdijkstra7627 8 ай бұрын
You should check out the Samsung T7 Shield when you need to replace your portable SSD; USB-C 3.2, IP65 water & dust resistant, 3m drop resistance, and has ridges with a rubberized finish for grip. It'd be a perfect fit since you do video editing & like to go backpacking. I have one myself I use to backup important/sensitive digital documents.
@joshfenn 8 ай бұрын
This looks great! Remember seeing some content when the T7’s came out but never looked into it. Been wanting another ssd for a bit to repurpose this one for gaming, put in an order! Appreciate the heads up, really looking forward to testing it out.

I love the look of the Bellroy Venture Ready 26L. I bought the Bellroy Classic Plus 24L because of the separate laptop pocket and thinking it was more workplace appropriate, but I regret not getting the Venture Ready instead. The Classic Plus has no water bottle pocket, I rarely need my computer to be separate from the rest of my gear (maybe useful only at airport security for my use case), and the style isn’t quite me. Plus, nobody at work cares what my backpack looks like. Maybe I’ll sell the Classic Plus and get the Venture Ready. Thanks for your video!!
@joshfenn 8 ай бұрын
Sounds like it might be worth the swap for you! Reselling shouldn’t be too bad, I’ve had decent luck over the years with offer up and eBay. I really like the fabric they’re using in the venture ready and there’s a ton of space inside for 26L

Love the bag, I have been looking at it for a while myself, unfortunately I don't have the money for a new bag at the moment, but I'm saving up to get it. Have you tested it out in the rain, I saw a video if it in the rain, not doing that good? I still love the design, so if it is a problem, I would just bring a lightweight cover for it.

Haven’t had the chance for rain testing quite yet! The zips are covered though which is always a great sign, this style of material is usually quite water resistant as well.

I've got 3 kit outs, depending on my plans. I've got a small pouch that's just big enough to toss my ipad mini in, along with my earbuds, phone, and vape gear for quick OTG. I've got a medium sized backpack with enough room for all that, plus my Ipad Pro and Macbook air Then I've got a large backpack that'll hold everything above, plus my work laptop, a portable monitor, and all the various cables and chargers to go with it. I'm a big efficiency geek, and having it split out this way allows me to only carry as much as I need to do what I need to do

I have one of the original Kindle with a keyboard at the bottom. I just replaced the battery, and it works fine. I am looking and considering upgrading. But then again, if it is not broke, why replace it? Just that cannot get a new case for it, or a light that is made to go in the said case. Hmm. Decisions
@joshfenn 8 ай бұрын
It’s a tough call for sure! Seeing my wife’s new paperwhite in action does make me a bit envious if I’m being honest, haha. The overall operating speed and higher resolution are great, but coming into year 10 with my old one it’s starting to feel like a challenge at this point and being stubborn can be fun too. Definitely need a new computer before the kindle though, we’ll see how it goes!

@joshfenn 8 ай бұрын
I’m using an A73 w/ Zeiss Batis lenses. You called it on the filter as well! Been using black pro mist filters for years for the light bloom and softer look. I think the autofocus and 8 bit color are the big weak points right now, when manually focusing the images always look nice and sharp but I move too much to lock focus manually on me and the old AF system is so bad compared to the newer models. The lenses are definitely great, hoping at some point to get 3 A74’s to run a 3 camera setup but between that and a new computer to handle the footage my wallet can’t handle it haha. Been debating removing the pro mist to sharpen up the look but after some recent side by side testing I still think the diffusion adds more than it takes away for the look I’m after.
