My Dream Bag!

400TMY from New York, NY

PROS: When packing "full", on the rectangular side compartments I have: Canon 20D + BG-E2 EOS 3 + PB-E2 For the middle four padded compartments: Canon 85 1.8 Canon 55-250 Sigma 15-30 (82mm) Sigma 50 1.4 (77mm) sigmalux! Front zippered pocket I have 430EXII flash. Inside zippered pocket on the cover is where I keep the film and mem cards. CONS: The only thing I would want is one or two side pockets to hold the flash and cards, but I guess that would change the size way too much.... Do realize that the sides and bottom of the bag is unpadded, which is basically both the camera body compartments. Best thing to do is cut out your own padding for the bottom, but the sides are still vulnerable so don't go thinking you can swing this around. Looking down at the bag I can't believe I fit both a full digital and film system with full focal range coverage, plus flash and film all in this "smaller" bag. When I saw the bag in person I thought oh how cute and small, now with … Read more

Just what the doctor ordered

j.polaski Photography from Ansonia, CT

I decided to switch from a Tamrac to he Domke for a lower key and better hugging bag. I have an older Domke laying around I use on occasion and know that these bags look better the older they get. When I found this bag I knew it had it all. The pockets are well padded and the velcro system works well for the future when I need to adjust. The top pocket and front pocket are great for everything I need to hold and I love the open back pocket for any books or maps that I might need. The strap holds wonderfully well with it's grippy threads, and the flap stays put whether it's buckled or not. I can easily take this bag from film to digital without missing a beat. Daily, I carry the following in my bag: Nikon D70 with 18-70 3.5-4.5 Nikkor Nikkor 70-300 G SB 600 SC-17 Gary Fong Lightsphere Lensbaby G-1 charger extra batteries cleaning tools and it all sits perfectly. I really couldn't be happier and with the khaki color I find it professional yet understated. If I had to pi … Read more

Even better than I expected

Larry Eiss from Albany, NY

I bought this because I needed something that would hold my D300 with the battery grip along with my hot-shoe flash and a couple of lenses. It does that very nicely. After using it for a week or two I was in a pinch and needed to take my other body along on a trip. I found that I could actually fit it into the pocket on the front of this bag! When I first brought the bag home, I thought maybe I had made a mistake because it was very different from the newer-style bags I've been using. No mistake was made however. The more I use it, the better I like it. It is incredibly easy to carry because being a very soft-sided bag, it forms to my hip and isn't bouncing around when I walk. What's more, the top can be flipped around behind the bag leaving it completely open and accessible for use under pressure! My next bag will be another of these in a larger size for when I really want to carry a lot of stuff. Read more

Great Camera Bag

Brad from Gaithersburg, MD

I purchased this bag about two months ago and have been using it since. I really like the bag becuase it does not look like a camera bag, and it holds all my stuff just great. I have a Nikon D-80 body, a 70-300 zoom lense, a 50 mm fixed lense and a 17-70 zoom lense. I also carry a Nikon SB-800 flash. All this fits nicely into the bag along with filters and other small items. The bag is well made and there were no probelems with it when I recieved it. The sholder strap and handle strap make carrying the bag very easy, does not slip of my sholder a very important feature. The internal compartments seem to be just the right size for my setup. However if you want to keep the camera in the bag with a lense mounted you either need to oder a different insert or consider a different bag. At first I thought this might be a problem, but for me it has not been an issue. The only other issue I have is the color of the bag in the photo is not exactly correct. the Sandy colored bag is a … Read more
