  • What also doesn’t make sense is, if you roughly line up his arm position in the three NYT stills vs going frame by frame in the video/audio playback captured by the various news outlets, he raises his hand to his ear nearly 2/3rds a second after the audio recorded first shot, which, given bullet velocity and distance traveled was probably nearly a full second after the first shot (so a super slow reaction time, which normal nervous system reaction time is .150-.300/sec), since you’ll hear (and audio record) the shot roughly 5 frames after it’s passed by. He starts to lift his hand off the podium at nearly the same time the second shot estimates to be fired, and maybe 3-4 frames before the first posted NYT pic catches the bullet supposedly whizzing by.



  • They’re heavy and I wouldn’t recommend for long travel because of that, but the Manfrotto backpacks are very well built. I have one of the larger ones, and it’s great for carrying heavier lenses. I also picked up the 21L and 31L Wandrd but I’m not in love with those. They’re good, just seems like there’s some things they could do better — like the number of internal zipper pockets needs to be more, the laptop / iPad sleeves need to be less flimsy, the velcro needs to be better and placed better, etc. good luck!
