Vince Maidens is a Canadian wildlife photographer and workshop / safari leader. Award winning photographer and contest judge Vince has traveled the globe to photograph all forms of wildlife, especially owls. Mentoring and continued education are also a passion of Vince’s as he strives to help better the art of photography with constructive critique and challenging projects.
Needing to protect large lenses in comfort is what Vince relies on his Shinn 80L DuraDiamond with Master Cine Camera Insert for. Knowing he can get it through the airport, on international flights and internal small planes is a major consideration. Durability, design and quality of build in the pack is paramount when putting yourself and gear through extreme weather paces. Managing the pack in sub-arctic conditions with mittens or sweltering dusty areas in Africa are a pleasure with the Shinn 80L.
