Click on the play button to listen to my quick review of this new camera bag by Filson / Magnum.

One final note: the strap on the Filson bag is too short as it would be difficult to wear bandolier style in the winter with a heavy coat.
Update: Spoke with Tiffen… Domke Bags are still made in the USA but the inserts are now made in China.
This audioblog focuses on cameras that span generations and what a family camera can mean… but is this inheritability the exclusive province of the analog camera? Give a listen.
I always like to get email and notes from photographers who use information gathered here on FR or who use the products I make for their artworks… I just received this email and photo (see below) from Richard Selwyn… very cool… literally!
Richard’s Email Text: A few photos for you from Argentina, Patagonia (ektar 100 film, 35mm lux or WATE). We had a great time and your bag was amazing. Was really harsh conditions – trekking in winter with some v bad weather. The bag worked beautifully and was even better because it is so light and hard wearing. Thanks also for sending the bag through to me quickly.

Fantastic! Viva la Revolution- Stephen
Everything I post here on the Figital Revolution is- in one way or another- part of a test I am running for my own Artworks, or for a client at Indian Hill Imageworks. Over the last few months I have been testing the Olympus XA, the LOMO LCA, the Olympus XA 4, Kodak Ektar 100, alternative printing paper, perfecting my carry solution (BBB) and new methods for hanging artwork. Now it is time to put everything into action! I am leaving for Italy 
in a few days (note the Italian Flag) and all of the works and testing will finally get full use. Below is a new image I just made called Winter Leaves, Vermont. 2009. It is made using the Olympus XA 4 using an in-camera multi exposure, overlapping-negative technique I have been refining for the last few months. The film: Kodak Ektar 100…I am taking 40 rolls of it with me to Italy! The paper/ image: printed on an uncoated sheet of Arches Rough 22″ x 30″, 640 gsm as a d’Vinci Print (12 color).
Note: I am about to test a similar style paper with some different sizing properties made by Fabriano… since my new artworks will be from Italy it only seemed right to look at Italian paper. Hey, they’ve been making paper for over 700 years… they have to be doing something right!
