Five Reasons You Should Keep Some Stubby Holders In Your Camera Bag

Stubby holders, the foam cup-like containers you use to keep aluminium cans cold, do more than you might realise. Here are some clever ways to use them with your camera gear.

This video from youtuber thefrugalfilmmaker highlights some ways you can use super-cheap stubby holders to protect and store your camera gear. You can use them to store short lenses, or use two of them to store long lenses. They can also be used as stackable organisers for smaller camera parts, or you can cut out the bottoms and use them for matte effects. Plus, stubby holders are water resistant and float, so you can protect your camera gear even if it’s raining or if you’re shooting near a body of water. You can grab stubby holders for a buck at the dollar store, or sometimes even cheaper at supermarkets.
