Great video and great description of all the stuff that you carry I really appreciate it. I am legally blind, and cannot see what the bag looks like. I felt like you described everything very well, other than the fact, I had to get somebody to look at the bag because I like bags that sits like on my waist, horizontal, not perpendicular. More like a man purse style.

Rolling shutter and low light comparison between the a7iv and fx3

In a running gun scenario, the FX3 were typically be better for low light performance and rolling shutter at the price of resolution

Looks huge: height could be slightly less, depth seems good but the length is too long. Wished it was 10 inches long. I'm not a tech nerd. I travel and day hike. I carry water bottle, rain jacket or vest, canon point and shoot, and small items like hand sanitizer, pen light etc.

The moment it was opened and the black interior was exposed... I'm out. Why so many companies don't go with a contrasting, if not high contrasting interior is beyond me. Nice bag, but they missed the boat on that alone.

Thanks for the review. Just curious what you would recommend between this and the H02 in terms of comfortability. I’m a student so I’ll be walking around campus all day, and I’m trying to decide between this style sling or a more messenger style bag.

Hello, I’m glad you like the review and I do have a recommendation for you. The explorer sling is much better set up to do walking especially at hot days. If all you’re caring is an iPad for class and you don’t need to carry a 14 inch laptop. This would definitely be my recommendation for you.

Sony A7 IV is much better for low light situations such as concerts and clubs. Sony A7R V is overall great and excels at landscape, tho having too much focusing issues in low light. I do mostly portrait and street photography so it’s a no brainer for me. Also, I’m not rich to pay 3000€ for a camera haha.

Great video as always. Just picked up this sling and waiting on delivery. Didn't go for the X-pac version though. Would you consider doing straight comparison videos with other similiar size slings. I always watch reviews on slings and pouches but always wonder how they directly compare with other similiar size items, especially when you move same gear from one sling/pouch to another. Thanks again.

It’s especially suitable as a personal item that can accommodate enough space in case I want to bring back souvenirs or medium-sized gifts. I also appreciated that you added the Amazon links to the different items - a nice touch indeed! Thank you so much, and please keep up the great work! 🤘

I ordered the same case before seeing your video and I can honestly say that this carry bag is well made but with two issues that makes it a no go for me. The sleeves for my 13 inch iPad Pro with folio attached and the Magic Keyboard sleeves both has too much room wiggle room left after I place them there so that’s a deal breaker so I’ll be returning mine to look for a better secured option.

Nice video, big fan of tomtoc bags. The viperade pouch seems really cool. I’ve been looking for something just like this. How do you think it compares with the maxpedition mini pocket organizer? Keep up the great videos.
@alphaartisan2 ай бұрын
The viperade is nice and it has a couple of benefits for me over the maxpedition. The viperade allows for quicker access to gear and without removing it from the pocket. It’s good for light edc gear that gets used more frequently and comes in x-Pac. The maxpedition Is great for heavier gear, harder use, and more extreme environments. When I travel by motorcycle or have expensive edc I’m bring into the jungle on an atv I’d use the maxpedition.
