Cool video about laptop case, take a look:


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.

LOLs amazing how far your educational vids have come guys!

They’re expensive, even drives that are only 40gbs are ridiculously pricey. That being said, they’re also extremely fast.

Your education is shit

You guys should really look into Solid State Drives for your Macbook Pro and external drives if you’re traveling a lot.

This is a great video. I was in DC for the Inauguration and his advice about keeping the batteries warm was great information.

I don’t wee it won’t.
Warm battery does last much longer.

Great way to transport a laptop and not worry about breaking it. Two thumbs up, Chase! Thanks for the tip.

By Jinks555 on May 9th, 2010 at 7:44 pm

Wow that’s really cool. What about the heat from the laptop? Does it vent well enough?

By xXSamObrienXx on May 9th, 2010 at 8:25 pm

Does that hand warmer thing really work?

By meridethtohayes on May 9th, 2010 at 8:36 pm

I was referred to CJarvis this morning.
Incredible collection of info!
THANKS for sharing!

Nice thing!!

By Bodhi504 on May 9th, 2010 at 9:46 pm

mg149ex-So what are you doing to contribute? If you have nothing constructive to say then how about you don’t say it. If you watch the video I think it is self explanatory what Chase is trying to do. Share the knowledge don’t dis it!!!! Great stuff Chase keep it up!

I’ve never seen someone use the phrase baloney online.

Thanks for making my day, rofl.

By achaser123 on May 9th, 2010 at 10:19 pm

Not selling anything – just sharing an idea.

Oh Yeah? Why give the prices for all the components? Just selling a case….baloney!

By achaser123 on May 9th, 2010 at 11:55 pm

Er…ah…sorry friend, but the title of the video is Laptop CASE, not laptop and hard drives. It’s fair to think that photographers have computers and storage devices. This laptop CASE setup does cost a couple hundred bucks. Not a couple thousand.

Couple of hundred bucks? How about a couple of thousand? Three thousand to be exact….and to say nothing of the H2 Hasselblad he’s shooting (another 30,000). Get real folks!!

By mediaonela on May 10th, 2010 at 12:10 am

Thanks for the great video. This inspired me to shell out the cash and buy the case. I also made a video showing how i made my tweaks to the laptop tray. Again thanks for the videos and can’t wait to watch more.
