| I did a documentary in
the Himalaya mountains of Nepal and there were two pieces
of equipment I carried all the way up the mountains,
right up to Everest Base Camp: I carried the camera over
one shoulder and the Cinesaddle over the other. It was
the most useful thing I could've taken. I hired a porter in Katmandu to carry all my other equipment. He had the tripod on his back, he had all my batteries, he had every conceivable accessory which I could've bought with me. But I carried the Cinesaddle and the camera the whole way and most of what I filmed was off the Cinesaddle. I found the Cinesaddle light, easy to carry, incredibly useful and a wonderful pillow to go to sleep with at night. |

I've had this brown bag strapped to boats, hanging out of helicopters, off the back of trucks, cars, rickshaws in Kathmandu - all sorts of ridiculously inconceivable locations. Even off the back of elephants. |
