budhudson Posted September 8, 2011 Share #1  Posted September 8, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello all  After considering which bag to protect and carry my X1 i finally settled on the Billingham Hadley Digital  First impressions are excellent  Very well made.  Big enough for X1 with handgrip and external viewfinder fitted  Velcro inserts that can be moved around to form 'pockets' for spare battery etc  Slim outer front pocket for thinner bits (spare memory etc  Light, comfy, waterproof and padded alround  Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HD_Dude Posted September 9, 2011 Share #7 Â Posted September 9, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) I am currently using a Billingham Photo Eventer with my X1. I am a big fan of their quality, durability and looks. Â My bag is too big for just the camera. Way too big - I used to use it with a Nikon D3 and 70-200 (not attached). Â But, it is a good size for any camera, plus a iPad2, iPhone, full-size headphones and much more. Â So, for a sleek, perfect fit bag, you have the best option. For those who need to pack a camera and a whole lot more, the larger Billinghams are a nice option too. Â Enjoy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Muller Posted September 13, 2011 Share #8 Â Posted September 13, 2011 I have the Billingham Stowaways Pola, its a perfect fit for the X1 with viewfinder and grip, plus a few other small zip etc compartments for all one's other stuff......This is my second Pola, the first one I carried daily for 15years before I retired it! Price has doubled in the mean time. Â Look at my blog, I wrote and showed pics of the Pola bag... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

goatsby Posted November 5, 2011 Share #10 Â Posted November 5, 2011 I have been using a Billingham Stowaway Compact with my X1 kit and it has been great. My only complaint is that it looks like a man-purse:) This small bag also works well with my M gear. Highly recommended! Â Adam Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
budhudson Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share #11  Posted November 7, 2011 All  Sorry for the llooong time this has taken but i have rarely used the bag to be honest  In the meantime i use the camera with the handgrip affixed and the ever ready case with external viewer in the little pouch and did this all over Mexico recently  I dont doubt, though, that now the wetter weather is upon us i will be using the Billingham bag that this was started for  Once i do then i will comment accordingly  Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
