Speed Queen Quantum Front Load Washer

These are like what the Queen keeps her jewels in. They're that good.

Bought over 1 year ago and still going strong. The load speed is amazing.

This flash has an external power socket (in the front) enabling the connection of another power source such as the Quantum Q battery.

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

Works great for mounting a Quantum Q Flash to a soft-box. This allows the soft-box and the speed ring to be supported by the tripod and all the weight is not put on the Q Flash. The Q Flash is then attached to the ring and it does not seem to be a problem for the flash to sustain its own weight.

This thing is awesome used in conjunction with my Quantum Flash, no speed loss, flashes every time I push the shutter release as expected. Also works superb with my Canon Flash units. This is not the first one of these I've purchased, I usually get about 3-4 years use before the battery starts deteriorating to the point where I can't rely on it to last a whole day. But this one has the larger battery, and I will have to wait a few years to see if they've improved them. The lithium cells are much more robust than the old lead acid AGM battery in the original Turbo Battery. And it is much less expensive, lasts longer than the Turbo, lighter, and takes up about the same amount of room. Plus has two connectors for two flashes. (Cables needed for the Quantum Flash or whichever flash you are using.) Note: Always unplug these after charged, extended charging may cause the battery to deteriorate.

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.
