While I was attending art school in Santa Monica, I was gifted a vintage Pentax 35mm film camera and lenses. They came in this gorgeous leather traveling case that had compartments for several lenses. That case made the whole experience of taking photos that much more authentic for me, and is the inspiration for this design. I wanted to create something for a camera lens that would evoke that same feeling of awe that I had when I got my first unique leather case. This case holds a Canon 55-250 mm lens, two small macro lenses or other lenses 5 inches tall or under. #photo #photography #photographer #lens #lenses #camera #vintage #vintagecamera #35mm #35mmfilmcamera #pentax #canon #dslr #slr #nikon #authentic #leather #traveling #travelingcase #lenscase #lensbag #experience #inspiration #design #designer #unique #art #artschool #school #SantaMonica #film #boho #bohemian #hippie #gypsy #bag #pouch #explore #explorer #map #productiondesign (at etsy.com/shop/roguespirit)

Fast Lens Switching

Fast lens switching on the go. You have a hip bag and need to switch your lens, but don't have time to put your rear lens cap on. What to do! Shooting fast at an event, means being able to change lenses quickly. Lens pouches and waist bags have a nice silk bottom with very little padding, but that's about it.  When you spend over $2000 on a lens, keeping the bottom of the lens in great condition is very, very important.  Not only protecting the mounting ring, but more important is the rear lens element and the electronic contacts.  It is very important to keep these parts very clean, and dropping your lens in a pouch can be precarious.  So here's my solution.  First,  go to tempurpedic.com  and request a FREE sample of their mattress product. They will send you a piece that's about 3"x3" and 1" thick.  This material is a perfect dense foam with some memory and give, and it's the perfect "cushion" for a lens.

Next step, is covering for the "lens pillow". I have found, that from all of the lens cloths available, the best one is the Visible Dust Magic Cleaner visibledust.com. This cloth is large, and will wrap around the foam with extra cloth to spare.   After you wrap the tempurpedic foam block with the lens cloth, insert it into the bottom of your pouch.

Now, when you "drop" your lens into your pouch, rear element down with no lens cap on, you will have no reservations that the bottom of your lens is 100% safe, without a rear lens cap!
