Kickstarter projects... One I like in particular is the second one down called QuikDraw. Very neat solution to having fast access to your lenses. Only issue I see is they do run the risk of not being that well protected against you bumping into hard things or say if you were pushed over... you could end up sitting on your expensive glass.

The EZSteady on Page 3 looks suspiciously close in design to the SteadiCam Merlin hand held stabiliser.... Wonder what they have to say about this.

I'd suggets it's much quicker just to put the lens into a bag, rather than fumble about trying to engage and then disengage a bayonet you can't see. And there's extra wear on the mount too.

I liked the roller skates for the Gorilla Pod but then, if you are using it as a dolly you really are only limited to surfaces which are smooth... really smooth, because those small wheels will find the bumps in anything if its not flat.

I invested in Astro. Should have it Jan/Feb.
