Front Load Washer Banging While Slowing Down

Our Paired Down duo was looking for a quick & easy column for smaller venues. (Our QSC system is fabulous, but a whole other level of load in, setup, tear-down, and load out.) As a keyboard-based cover duo, we were concerned about relying on a single column 30M—especially at the low frequencies. We didn’t want to have to add a subwoofer or 2nd column, but moving to a 50M would have been a big increase in $$ and weight. Bottom line: the 30M is just fine for us. Oh; we needed this fast and B&H free overnight delivered. Highly recommended.

Someone please tell me any other film washer better than this.

While the tripod specs a load capacity of 15.4 lb and multiples of the actual payload are recommended, my 11 lb setup is rock-solid in the shortest position. It's well made and intuitive BUT I'd love to marked gradations for extending the tripod legs evenly.

While I have only used the stand a few times it seems quite sturdy and compact. It has substantially lightened my load on shoots. The air cushion which is usually a pain ... when closing stands closes with out much delay.

THIS MOUSE IS THE VERY BEST! HANDS DOWN!

I use this NDF mostly for slowing the shutter on moving water.

Load everything up and move it from one location to the next. All my equipment fits perfectly. Collapses down to fit in the front seat area of my car, with the wheels on the floor. Don't need a truck just yet.

I haven't actually used this yet, but I did load it, weigh it, and pretend to put it in an overhead for practice. Seems perfect for my gear. I travel with a DLSR, mirrorless and 4 lenses. There is room for that and a change of clothes if a bag gets delayed. The front compartment easily holds my 15 laptop. The laptop compartment sort of locks by attaching the loop on the zipper to the integrated lock for the case (watch the video). The case rolls easily. I agree with the reviewer who said it would be nice if the bottom of the case was flat, but with my gear that is not a problem. The recommended accessory GRID-IT organizer of 10X12 does not fit the interior front pocket and looks like it has been removed as a suggestion. All-in-all this looks like it will be a great bag. It will be my carry-on but seems sturdy enough to gate check on smaller planes.

I couldn't be happier. This cart rolls over anything and carries all my gear. The only slight problem is if you load the rear with more weight than the front, the front wheel wiggle and increase resistance to push. Design questions, changes... why not make the deck a bit wider. It would allow for more gear between the hands (light stands, tripod, etc), and since there are wheels blocking the bottom rail, put something to hook onto for bungee cords.

This is a great day/travel bag for taking your camera and a spare lens. To me, it's one step up in complexity/organization from a peak design neckstrap, which I also have and use, for days when you want to grab the camera, but also second lens and extra battery. The bag wears comfortably, wraps around your back when not in use, swings around to the front, and you can wear it as a fanny pack (though I haven't). There are nice little nooks and crannies for extra batteries, cords, etc. The flexibility and capacity of the bag is a double-edged sword. Yes, you CAN load it up, a lot, and if you are flying somewhere and need the capacity, it's there. You could do an 80D with a 18-135, two pancakes on one side and an 85mm on the other, and have room to spare for more. But, if you really load this up to maximum capacity, it starts becoming like a traditional heavy camera bag, a psychological and physical burden that detracts from actually leaving the house, being mobile and taking out your camera quickly and actually using it. Just my thought process. One less that great thing... the front pocket is a little hard to access, for me, especially if the bag is full. It could have been made just a tad more roomy, maybe with some more give on the sides. As is, the cloth is very tight and you kinda have to pull it apart and plunge your hand across a sharp-ish zipper to get in there. Know what I mean? Maybe the next generation addresses that.
