First Lite Obsidian Pants Review
I have long been looking at the Obsidian’s – they looked like a great option for a lightweight, breathable trousers. And, to be blunt, I love merino wool as a material. Go the sheep. Merino rocks.

It was while using Magic Lantern on the Canon 5d that I came across Blackmagic’s Divinci Resolve as part…
