[Waist Belt] I'd seen these hip packs in use by a lot of American photojournalists when I was sent to the States to cover the Oklahoma tornado for the BBC - all the guys had everything they needed to hand, whereas I had to to take my bag off, search through it and then put my bag back on... the hip pack made perfect sense! This simple design is a must for any photojournalist who has to run and gun. Mic, batteries, accessories can all be fitted into the various spacious pockets that are strapped around your waist - everything is easily accessible without the need to put your camera down. The waist strap is comfortable to wear and adjustable for the most generous of cameramans muffin top waistlines! Portabrace are synonymous for making quality products for the professional - this is no exception.

[Waist Belt] Love this. Its hard to change lens when you shooting at fast environment like wedding. Having lens beside makes life easy.

[Canon EOS R7] Works great with my Canon R7

[Black] As a former news photographer, I know if you don't have it with you, you can't use it. So right after the camera,tripod,camera batteries, stick mic., Lav mic.,cables,spare tapes,batteries,wireless mic transmitter Leather-man, Gaffers tape,Skittles,pens,paper,labels,PDA,& flashlight. The next thing you need is a bag to put them in.When I saw the price of the PB-3 I was kinda shocked, I think I paid $100 for my last Porta Brace bag about 10 years ago. so I begrudgingly paid $ for this new one. ... I looked it over & found it was nothing like my old bag. The Zippers are heavier duty, The design looks the same but inside there are customized pockets for all your stuff, I was looking for an instruction sheet explaining all the pockets. there is even a LED light strip in the pocket for finding things at night & it flips out like a safety flasher, so you can be seen at night.or at least know that whoever ran you over meant to. so in closing... The belt pack is FANTASTIC! the only thing I can think of, that I would change or modify is the fact that the equipment pouches are not locked into position on the belt. Still, I am very happy with my purchase.

[Yes] That is useful when you're a one man crew !

[Empty] This pack will hold it all! I needed for extra microphones, batteriesand even my small Zoom H4 recorder! can easily work on my belt and the small strap can work just as well if i just want it around my shoulder. Anything from PortaBrace is so well made, you can never go wrong!

[Black] Very happy with this product, has loads of compartments, an internal surprise light strip to find things in the dark and overall build quaility is tough. Now I can carry alll the extras and be raedy on thgose fast paced/ENG shoots!

[Waist Belt] Great item. I am in the field everyday for eng camera use. U can use it as a fanny pack or a shoulder bag. Perfect for a few batteries , mica, and other everyday run and gun shooting needs!

[Canon EOS R7] Really come in handy when shooting on the fly with my easy rig! super useful

[Empty] It's a Porta Brace so it's well made, but with the name you do pay for it. I make my living filming on the road and this product makes my life easier. The build is strong and durable. The Belt keeps everything tight without constricting. The only flaw is the zippers jingle, but this was fixed with a couple Velcro cable straps. Bottom line if you need to keep your gear close by, and be able to wear it all day long this product will do the trick and you'll never need another. Truly well made.
