April in Asia
April was an exciting month for us as our products traveled across the globe to be showcased at two major photography shows in Asia. First was the 15th Annual China International Photograph & Electrical Imaging Show in Beijing, and then the 2012 Photo & Imaging Show in Seoul, South Korea. The response has been amazing. A big thank you to Tony, Koo and Teams!

Larry, thank you for dropping by our booth and mentioning us in your WPPI write-up. The M-Plates will begin shipping soon and will be listed on our site once all our Kickstarter pre-orders are fulfilled.
“Camera straps seem to be reinvented in some way every year, and a new company called CustomSLR has come up with a super cushiony split strap. Their quick proof of concept demo was a cloth bag with 6 bottles of water in it, and a regular strap. You load that on your shoulder and see how it feels. Then they just switch straps on the exact same bag and you see how much nicer the strap feels and how it doesn’t seem to slip from your shoulder. Nice demo in under 20 seconds. (They sell for $27 and I got one.)”
Video: We mounted the M-plate to a Canon 600mm f4L beast weighing 12lbs.

Review on PinkBike by Ian Hylands
We revealed the new form factor and design of the M-Plate at CES / PMA 2012. It’s elegant yet functional and all proudly made in the USA. Kickstarter Backers - Thanks again for your patience and helping us make this happen! Stay tuned for a delivery ETA.
