Camera Bags

[Daikoku]

Hehe...there are always bag for different purpose...like the ladies...we can never satisfy with just one camera bag...I have more than 5 and still not enough...:lovegrin: ...found my wife's old Prada classic messenger bag lying around no longer in use...the complete insert from Billingham "Hardey Small" fits neatly inside this bag...I gave this bag a new life...

i like this! Prada match Leica

Folks, I am currently using the Billingham L2 (Billingham own version of the Leica Combination bag made by them) for the following:

M8 with lens attached
M3 with lens attached
1 spare lens
3-4 rolls of films
Sekonic light meter
Torch lights
Blower

Thinking of getting the Hadley Large to put my 15" Macbook pro and maybe a 5Dm2 with lens without grip. Do you think that's the best options?

Any suggestions? I don't want something too big cos' that will defeat the whole purpose of using a Rangefinder system for size. Of course, it would be good if I can at least carry my DSLR and one M at times when I need the flexibility. I already got a Lowpro Flipside 400 but that's too bulky to walkabout if I just need 1 DSLR and 1 M bodies.

Saw the new 207 and 307. The material is very nice but can't put a laptop inside. Laptop is not a must but since I do not have a laptop bag right now for my Macbook. I can use it as a "reason" to justify getting another camera bag. Hehe...

Since we're on this topic. Please post the bags you're using and if got pics even betta!!! I know there's a similar post in another thread, but would like this thread to be specific to RF users.

Here's mine when it was spanking new. Posing with my R4s and ex-MP. I love the classic look and the greater depth on this bag.

Check out Artisan and Artist bags, they are nice.

+1 for the Flute.

Tried the b-laika but not as usable as the Leica/Billingham bags.

mmmm tasty fomapan, beautiful canon .95, and a nice Luigi case... oh, yeah. there is a bag there somewhere

Its a Luigi Bro. The best Leica case money can buy honestly... No doubt about it.

Till this day it still has the nice leather smell we all love

I agree, soft, luxurious ... hard to get him these days, though.

heh - thought so. i have 4 cases from him - my favourite is the 'rally' (colour) case on my iiif-rd. still has lovely leather smell and is very soft now. the aged feel of the rally has become even more so - perfect for the iiif-rd! i don't use a neck strap - only a wrist strap. but it's very comfortable.

I am using a Luigic case with grip for my M8. Mixed feeling cos' a A&A or Zhou is good enough to protect the camera.

Anyway, just to update all!!! Just got my khaki Hadley Large just now. Can't wait to dump all my gears inside to see how much it can fill up. I still love my L2 though.

Bro...fogg bags are excellent...just like clothing...some prefer to wear jean & t-shirt and some never like to wear shirt with tie...different style suit different people.
