Excellent camera bag at a good price
Likes
Good strap, easily adjustable to a comfortable length.
Front pocket is a good size for a bulky smart-phone case.
Branding is fairly discrete
Good value (purchased at £23.49 later discounted to £19.97)
Padded on all sides, Velcro partition as needed.
Perfect size for MFT camera with walk-about lens and some accessories
Dislikes
None really.
I’m an amateur/basic photographer with an MFT camera (Olympus Pen E-P7) and a few lenses. My “walk-about” lens is a 14-140mm zoom which makes the camera longer than with the kit lens. I want to carry camera, plus accessories, and some non-camera related extras like my smart phone and a thin base-layer. I’ve never been keen on having a dedicated camera-only bag because then I have to carry my other stuff in something else. This bag manages to comfortably and discretely hold all my basic kit.
The strap I use mainly cross-wise over my body, so I can put it behind me when cycling. The bag is light and very comfortable to wear, I barely notice it. Zips are good quality, smooth to operate. I tend to keep the top flap unzipped when using the camera frequently for ease of access. Although I wear the camera around my neck on a strap some of the time, if I’m cycling or walking any distance I prefer the camera in the bag and not swinging free. Carry handle is padded and a comfortable grip. My smartphone has a wallet style case to accommodate cash cards etc and although this makes the phone quite chunky, it fits nicely in the front pocket. I really like having space for my phone as well as camera!
This bag ticked a lot of boxes for my needs. It is almost a perfect size, very functional and well designed. Some other bags I have tried have extra pointless pockets that are not really practical to use. This is quite minimalist and looks better for it in my opinion. Discrete and understated, exactly the style I was looking for. Note: I ordered blue, but the blue looks more like black so if it is blue, then it is very dark! Only a cosmetic detail though.
Very pleased with bag, would recommend to users of smaller format cameras.
