Have you watched the Kickstart video for the Quickdraw? I found it amusing. Now I'm not saying its a bad product. Not at all, It will probably sell well but really? I can't help but wonder if the next version will have a tag holder to display lens model and MSRP value so the world will know how serious a photographer the user is :lol: Sow off much? Don't hate me for my opinion, I just find this product amusing.

Anyway, what I found most amusing in this video is how it labels those who don't use their product. The video has told me that I am a Slinger, Commander and Bagger – though I don't seem to have the problems that they described.

After watching the video – what category do you fall into?

Bagger, and sometimes a Slinger !
I can't be a stasher, cause I DO forget everytime where I put stuff.
I won't complain if someone gives me one of these, but I don't necessarily need one. ( Oh, but I want one!)

It's called quickdraw, but you better use it slow to make sure

I like it in theory. Will I buy it .. maybe. Will I ever use it .. questionable. It will probably be stashed in my camera bag. :)

Was that an EOS 3 with a grip? Neat.

I'm a bagger. Not a bad idea but I'm not sure I like my lenses all exposed like that. In a studio sure, anywhere else....
