Little Mirrorless Camera Bag for DSLR SLR Wateproof Canvas
Review: Compact, well made bag - All the camera bags I've had
tend to be fairly deep, meaning front to back, and that's great
when you're packing a lot of gear. Packing for a trip to Italy I
wanted as small a bag as I could get and this looked like the
Besnfoto would be that. First off, the bag size is much more
compact than my others so I'm pleased with that. It's also more
well made than I expected and actually great looking compared to
the black nylon bags I have. When I ordered it, I was just
planning to use it for my Panasonic FZ1000, but had half-hoped I
might fit my Sony A7ii mirrorless with two lenses. The Panasonic
fits fine with room to spare. The Sony was a no-go, although I
think it was just the lenses I have: 28-70mm and 70-300mm. I
think with a prime and maybe 28-200mm lens it would just fit. I
almost was going to take a star off for the top flap - it seemed
unnecessary especially with the velcro closure atop a zipper
closure. As it works out, it's great to secure a small monopod
and I realize that flap will provide additional weather
protection. There's a deep front pocket which accommodates memory
cards, batteries, cords, etc. Kudos as well to the strap, which
is wide enough to be comfortable and plenty long so you wear it
across your body. Altogether a pretty nice bag at a great price.
Review: Nice build and a fit for my needs! - I wanted a small
bag, with 'back bone' to carry a MFT camera, that did not look
like a camera bag. What I mean by 'back bone' is simply a bag
that is semi ridgid when open or empty, with out going to a hard
shell. It is my experience that bags with out some back bone are
frustrating to load and turn in to 'Mexican finger traps' when
trying to grab a camera. This bag works, Thank You. This bag does
hold a Lumix G9 with Rokinon 12mm nicely. (with hood fitted!)
That is a fat around lense. The G9 with the lumix kit 12-60 zoom
with hood fitted slides right in. There is room for a bean bag,
thick wool bandanas and a bag of rice. Keep it simple! The pocket
has no trouble swallowing up; an air blower, lense brush, micro
fiber cloth, body cap lense AND a small point and shoot Lumix
FS7. Alternatively, with the divider in, it is a roomy bag for an
old Lumix GF1 with 20mm fitted, once again with lense hood and
any number of choices of another lense. For me generally a Lumix
42.5mm , yes leave the hood on. This situation can be reversed.
The 20 can be stashed and the 42.5 deployed on the camera. Either
way a small bean bag (try a 'Hacky Sack') is nice to have in
there. I am taking time to review this bag because I like it so
much. The build quality is excellent . I wanted the tactile feel
of natural fiber, and it's anti static properties. I did not want
magnetic snaps, or a velcro closer. I may block off the velcro
and add a buckle, or snap. The zipper feels pretty good, it
deserves lube. If I where to pick nits, the zipper sliders (Nice
touch two!) when fully open get lost behind the generous D rings.
I may put bigger colorfull pulls on. I like the size of those
rings and how well the carry strap works. I can not speak to
durability as it has not seen much use. I expect it will wear
like typical canvas. Zippers are often a weak link. Sharp turns
can be trouble. Time will tell. This bag is a fit for my needs!
Good News. Chris
