The best little camera tool since the penny.

Well-crafted and versatile, this little gadget is the item I didn't know I needed. It's now clipped to my camera bag with a little cord loop and carabiner and the screwdriver and hex wrench are back in the tool chest in the garage. A simple and great product!
