I believe Macgregor just nailed it on test videos with this sample footage from the Nikon D7000.

Think Tank Photo’s new Urban Disguise series camera bags are a versatile line of shoulder-carry bags that make it possible to carry a lot of gear in a compact and inconspicuous manner.
Think Tank Photo offers several different versions of the Urban Disguise bags, which lets find a bag that serves your own needs. At the bottom end, you’ve got the Urban Disguise 10, which holds a DSLR with lens attached (along with some extra space in the front pocket), to the Urban Disguise 70, which holds 2 pro-sized DSLRs with up to 70-200 f/2.8 lenses attached, plus several lenses and a couple of additional bodies. Additionally, the Urban Disguise series features bags like the Urban Disguise 60, which holds pro-sized DSLRs, lenses and offers a 17″ widescreen laptop compartment.
The Urban Disguise 40 V2.0 has been on my shoulder for the past few weeks with a number of different gear arrangements inside. For a lot of folks, the Urban Disguise 40 V2.0 will serve as the perfect single-shoot bag. It’s also a fantastic photo walk or day trip bag.
The Urban Disguise 40 V2.0 looks and feels like a professional briefcase. It doesn’t stick out in a crowd and draw attention to you like “Hey, I’m carrying a few grand in camera gear.” This is a camera bag that just lets you blend into the crowd, but still functions like a sexy camera bag.

The newly announced Nauticam NA-D7000 is an underwater housing for the Nikon D7000, which allows you to take the 16MP DSLR down to a depth of 100M. It will set you back a bit on top of the D7000 sticker price though. The Nauticam NA-D7000 carries a retail price tag of $3100 and should be available at the end of this month (just in time to make it on your wish list).

Photo Mechanic is solid piece of photo organization software. It is not an image editor, but it’s just as critical to your workflow if you shoot a lot of photos. Camera Bits (the maker of Photo Mechanic) says, “Photo Mechanic sets out to be the most useful Photo Workflow Software on the market today. It does this by being logical in operation, intuitive in use and, most importantly of all, performing its functions as quickly as possible.”
All those things are true, but that last part “. . . as quickly as possible” is what makes Photo Mechanic such a hit for me.
Ever shoot a few hundred or a few thousand images in a day? Do you shoot in RAW format and hate waiting for the those 100% previews to load in Lightroom? Do you need to view your photos faster? If you said “yes” to any of these, then you will see an immediate benefit to putting Photo Mechanic in your workflow. [click to continue…]
