Santa Rosa, Calif. (PRWEB) July 07, 2014 -- MindShift Gear’s has just released the Filter Nest, the first dual-purpose round filter case for outdoor photography.

The Filter Nest is belt-mountable and compatible with MindShift Gear’s rotation180° Panorama and rotation180° Professional backpacks for quickly accessing filters while setting up a shot.
