Gear Review : Lowepro Photo Runner 100 /  by Glenn Fajota

Lowepro Photo Runner 100

 

 

In the Lowepro Photo Runner 100, I was able to fit my 1DS mark 3 and a couple of lenses in there. I did record some audio with the Tascam DR-40 which I stored in an S&F pouch attached to the Photo Runner using one of the SlipLock loops.

The Lowepro Photo Runner 100 was the perfect choice for me since I was able to fit a couple of lenses, my passport, iPhone, pen, hand sanitizer and Giottos blower all within arms reach. During my shoots, I used the bag as a beltpack on my waist because this allowed me to have quick access with just a pull of a zipper and not placing it on the sand. Having the bag on my waist, freed up my shoulders and hands, which made it easier for me to direct during the shoots. When I wasn't shooting, I used the provided shoulder strap that I kept tucked in the back when I was not using it.

Here is a rare team up with two of the leading vendors for photographers and videographers. In this video we show you how we reconfigured the Lowepro Omni Trekker bag that was sold with the Pelican 1550 case into a location laptop bag. This combo gave us the option to have both a soft and hard case for traveling and storage. If you can still find this combo online, grab it and keep it.

Lowepro Audio Kit /  by Glenn Fajota

During college, I was working three jobs and Best Buy was one of them. I started out as a seasonal employee and ended up working there for four years. I only wanted to work there to use my discount to buy Lowepro bags and cases, haha true story! Before then, I use to hound eBay for bags because they were cheaper and in budget for any college student. Over the years, I accumulated every type of bag and case out there and also was given the name "bag whore" by my photog colleagues, also a true story.

Now over 10 years later since I bought my first Lowepro bag, the company I have been in love with and avid supporter of is supporting me as a LoweProfessional! Who would ever know! This is the latest shipment they sent so make sure you LIKE the fan page and SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel to see the next video review. Thank you for the continued support to you as well (=
