Over the past few months we’ve been working hard with CRU, a Vancouver, Washington based company to bring focus to their products aimed at the photography/video market here in the UK. CRU products have been long favoured in the US by leading photographers such as Jared Platt and Joe DiMaggio, but today we’re publishing our first case study based on input from one of the UK’s leading sports photographers, Richard Pelham, Chief Sports Photographer at The Sun Newspaper in London. Late last year, I was lucky to be introduced to Richard as he was looking for some help with some storage issues he was having, and from there we have been working together on his long term review of CRU’s ToughTech Duo.

For those that don’t know Richard’s work, he’s responsible for some of the most iconic sports photographs from the last few decades, and has been voted Sports Photographer of the year four times. Looking through his portfolio is like a pictorial reminder of the last 30 years of UK sport, he’s been to and photographed virtually everything of interest to the British sports fan.

Please take a read through Richard’s case study, and if you need further information, please do get in touch! As CRU’s photo/video reseller here in the UK, we are now selling the ToughTech Duo (and other enclosures to be added soon) through our online store.
