just got F2B and love it. Anyway just want to know how much are those domke padding inserts cost? Or any other bag brand padding to be used in my bag?
 

Am i right to say that the only difference between the F-3XB and J3 is the size and the muted logo?other than that everything else is the same right(any difference in material perhaps?there was some talk about the J3 being a mix of canvas and ballistic)

I am deciding between getting the F6 and the F3, my setup is D80 with 18-200 plus tokina 12-24. Will be getting a flash soon and more or less will be contented with my setup. My worry is that the F6 has a fairly large main interior as compared to the F3 and thus would be a bit too big for what i have right?
 

i bought the F3x about a month back.. it'd prob be a good fit for your gear tanjonhan.. :) i'm carrying the 400D + kit lens + 550EX + 50mm prime + 75-300 (sometimes borrowed :P)

unless you looking into expanding your gear soon.. i suppose the F3 would be good for ya!
 

One thing to note about my little ''modification'' F2(using a soft base padding instead of the supplied hard one), is that the bag will fold when the bag is half emptied(for me, thats when the body is out).It makes it more confortable, but a lil bit troublesome to change lenses.

I haven't had any problems with the metal hooks hitting my LCD so far.And the waterresistant ballistic nylon is really great!

Apart from the muted logo and ballistic nylon, J3 is slightly bigger than f3X, bro :lovegrin:
F3XB is the ballistic nylon version of the F3X
 

the photo bag of my choice is LOWEPRO:thumbsup:
 

For me .. F6 olive is my daily using .. for a tough job like trekking .. I love my J3
 

for all the current domke owners and future ones.. i got the shoulder strap for the F3X and i was wondering if it was just me or is the shoulder strap like darn "sticky"..

love it or hate it? (i'm currently sitting on the fence, but since i bought it, gonna to make the best outta it!)
 

there is a store on ebay selling donke bags that are significantly cheaper than cathay photo. They use USPS for shipping and thus its cheaper than others like BHPHOTO that use FEDEX or DHL etc. They have exceptionally positive customer feedbacks to show..

I ordered my J3 from them, and it cost me only SG$204 inc. shipping. Waiting for it to arrive, probably will take a week or so. will update everyone again on the outcome lol

do take a look!!

Not quite sure what you mean "sticky"... the rubber on the shoulder strap is quite thick and shiok :thumbsup: I guess that is normal

I have had a few of these postal worker shoulder straps for years now and never found them to be sticky. Yeah, the rubber on the strap does a pretty good job in preventing the strap from slipping off my shoulder. But I wouldn't exactly consider it as "darn sticky".
 

:) i'm guess i'm not compaining about the "stickiness" but rather the use of the shoulder pad as a whole.. i cannot decide if it would be easier to move back and forth if i did without the shoulder pad..

Took me awhile to get used to the tacky shoulder surface of my Optech bag strap as well...but after awhile I got used to it and I loved the weight-reduction of the strap. (Say, can a Domke's bag strap be removed and the Optech strap used in-place?)
