Digital Camera News, Reviews and Tips
The Crumpler Sinking Barge is a trendy camera bag and laptop carrier that doesn’t have the look of the typical camera bag. That’s a good thing though. You don’t always was to
The Sinking Barge is made out of a tough, water-resistant fabric with a ripstop liner.
