I recently ordered a Shootsac, a great way to solve a problem every photographer who shoots with multiple lenses faces: What to do with your extra lenses while you are shooting? When I’m at a wedding, I usually carry a 17-55, a 85 1.4or 1.8 and a 70/80-200 2.8. That was when I was shooting DX, but due to a recent investment, I joined the Nikon FX camp with a brand new D700 and now I’m back to shooting primes. I’ll be carrying a 24, 35, 50, an 85 and a 80-200. Five lenses. In the past, even when I was carrying only 3 lenses, it was always a problem carrying the other lenses around, I would usually sling a smaller camera bag on my shoulder which was a pain. Especially because you would have to keep the lens caps on when you put a lens back in the bag. Enter the Shootsac, it’s made of neoprene firm enough to hold the lenses in place, and soft enough so that it doesn’t scratch the glass. When I got home today I found a box from Adorama on my front porch.

I was wondering how I would wear the ShootSac along with the R-strap that I usually wear when I shoot, two straps crossing each other across my chest, but I’m anxious to try it out during a live shoot!

I loved the tip card from Jessica Claire, I wonder if you get a different one for every product you order. You can change out the covers for different patterns, the majority of them are more feminine, so I stuck with the basic black, can’t go wrong there! One thing that I did notice walking around with it, the neoprene gets hot against your body if you wear it messager bag style. I’m going to have an opportunity to test it out fully in a little under a week and a half, can’t wait!
