Photography Laptop Case (aka Pimp Your Laptop Case)

Photography Laptop Case (aka Pimp Your Laptop Case)As a pro photographer specializing in 'location-based' advertising images (which is photo-speak for in-the-field instead of in-studio), I often face the challenge of shooting under conditions that do not allow for the comforts of Mac Pros and Cinema Displays to review images, download cards, or shoot direct to the hard drive. (We often have to helicopter into locations, are out in the remote without option at generator, or find ourselves in places where speed and efficiency are key.) As a solution to this problem--and in the theme of 'do-it-yourself'--my team and I recently developed a cool custom laptop case for addressing these needs using simple, durable, and readily-available materials. Today, we end up using this setup a fair bit and I thought that many in our community might benefit from a quick instructional video highlighting how to put their own one case together for cheap. Hopefully, pro shooters find this a nice compromise for those times when you can't get your big-boy computers on location, and amateurs find this a great solution for taking their laptop along for the ride.
