Does anyone have one of these looks like a good bag but it seems a tad pricey £107 :eek:

Has a couple of cool features that I like and doesn't scream camera bag to little thieving toerags

just wondered if it is worth it ?

I have one for my csc camera kit. Brilliant bag, lots of nice features, really well made. As you say it doesn't scream camera bag which was a massive selling point for me.

I would say its expensive but worth it. I have mine in Pinestone if that helps.

Thats what I wanted to hear, before I ordered one. Nice to have an independent opinion. The not screaming camera bag, is a massive bonus to me as well. Im also going to get the Pinestone think it finishes the allusion of just a plain shoulder bag.

Going to be putting my OM-D kit in this bag so should be just the job

thanks

Had one for a couple of years myself. In pinestone as well. Fantastic bag and holds a supprising amount. I can manage to cram my D90 with kit lense, 50mm prime, extra battery and my polariser. I can just about cram my external flash in there as well.

Not cheap but looks great and is built to last.

Get the 7. Just got myself one.

Expensive but stunning. Mine fits my 5D3 in with attached 70-300L (inc reversed hood), 24-105 and also my new Sigma 35mm 1.4. The large front pocket will hold filters and adapters, then other inner pockets will hold the spares like cleaning bits, spare battery etc. There will even be space for a small beans bag.

Buy bigger than the 5, you dont want to run out of space. The 7 is also much smaller in real life than I thought it would be. Pinestone finish and the general quality of the bag are excellent.

Got mine from Morris last week, delivered within a fewdays .

This bag is sounding better and better

To late to order bigger version. I should be ok though as it is for my Olympus OM-D, 17mm 1.8 prime and 45mm 1.8 prime and if im lucky and the wife doesn't catch on the 75mm prime

.

got it in Pinestone from Morris really looking forward to it arriving really does look like a nice bit of kit
