Manolo Laguillo Posted July 31, 2015 Share #48 Posted July 31, 2015 Another possibility for the Leica S plus some lenses: the Think Tank Sling-O-Matic 30. I found it yesterday here in Madrid, and bought it at once. There is a big difference between the messenger and the sling concepts. Carrying the bag sling-wise is much better for the shoulder. There is room inside the 30 model for the Leica S with a lens, plus two more S lenses, and a small camera, even a Leica M. A 15" laptop fits as well. So the capacity is more or less the same as with the CityWalker 30. I highly recommend this bag. PS: Strangely enough, it seems to be discontinued on the manufacturer's web page...

albireo_double Posted August 4, 2015 Share #49 Posted August 4, 2015 FYI - Billingham Photo Eventer works fine for the Leica S body with the 70mm lens attached (hood reversed), without the handgrip + one other lens (in my case the 180mm). Handgrip, spare battery, light meter, etc. fit in front pocket(s). Not much room left for anything else (which is fine for my purposes). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent M10 Posted January 2, 2016 Share #51 Posted January 2, 2016 Has anyone tried an Oberwerth Munster for the S? Still trying to figure out a good back. The Bellingham is way too heavy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill W Posted January 2, 2016 Share #52 Posted January 2, 2016 I have been researching and have not looked at Oberweth but they seem too small for my use. I am looking at the Billingham 307. Yes it wieghs 4.5 pounds but it will hold my S007 and three lens kit. It is well padded. I could not find a Munster version of thd Oberwerth. They seem very expensive as well.

Agent M10 Posted January 2, 2016 Share #53 Posted January 2, 2016 Thanks for the reply, Bill. Sorry, it's Munchen, not Munster. I'm using the Billingham as more of a transport bag, taking it from the car and setting it up somewhere. I was asking about the Munchen because I'm looking for a decent bag as a walk around for the S and maybe one extra lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Printmaker Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share #55 Posted January 2, 2016 Thanks for all of the replies. I ended up getting a Filson Field Camera Bag. It looks great and matches the ancient LL Bean canvas backpack I usually take as carry-on for short trips. My only serious complaint is that there is no protected place for my laptop. I guess I've gotten spoiled using my Hadley Pro which holds two M bodies with lenses mounted and two spare lenses along with batteries, cards and a 13" Macbook Pro. I was hoping for a similar bag for the S. My solution for travel was simply to leave the computer home, take a few extra SD cards and just use my iPhone for internet connection and email. This left the open outside back pocket of the Filson free for maps and to stash some of the junk my wife picks up along the way. I've put about 40,000 miles on this bag over the last 9 months and it has held up well. No loose threads or quality problems. It has a few scratches and marks but nothing serious. Just enough to show it is not new. It has been through some heavy rains and driving winds without leaking. I carried it through some dicy neighborhoods without feeling that it screamed "expensive camera inside." Overall I'm pleased with my choice. But the Scot in me still objects to spending $320 for a yard or two of canvas and a little leather trim — no matter how nicely it was sewn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 3, 2016 Share #56 Posted January 3, 2016 Sorry guys 30K of equipment needs a bit of protection .... My choice is LowePro Kata and Think Tank ... in order of decreasing padding and likelihood of damage. Long distance the LP Flipside 400 would be my choice. My Wotancraft Ranger is a bit small for the S system. Half of my outdoor wardrobe is FIlson ... but I would rather have another kilo of padding on a camera of this nature.

Printmaker Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share #57 Posted January 3, 2016 True enough, there is no padding on the Filson. But I also have a LowePro fitted case which slips into a Pelican 1450 that I use when sailing or traveling off-road. That combo is bullet proof. I wanted something light to use as a travel/shoulder/field bag. The Filson is not perfect but it lets me work out of the bag and not force me to look for a table where I can open the case to get the camera out. However, the way this bag is constructed, I could slip some padding on the bottom and might do one day if it turns out to be an issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McMaster Posted January 3, 2016 Share #58 Posted January 3, 2016 If I am travelling I would put (most of) my kit in the Leica hard case, when shooting I often use the Filson Magnum Steve McCurry which does have padding. If I am up to it, it will hold any 6 S lenses (inc 24mm/zoom with hoods) and a body+grip and accessories.... john Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tthorne Posted January 3, 2016 Share #59 Posted January 3, 2016 I have a Filson Camera Field Bag that I really love to use with my M's, but I have to admit that the interior was too flimsy for my taste and I ended up buying a bag inset on Amazon to replace the provided dividers. Works like a charm. I can pack it anywhere from very light to 4 M bodies with lenses attached with spare batteries, filters, and so on. For the S, I have yet to figure out what I want to use. I have a Billingham 550 which is plenty large, but I am not a fan of the dividers in it. I may have to research a configurable insert for that bag. I also like the Filson McCurry. Also, back in my DSLR days I had a Lowepro classified 250 messenger bag that was great for larger gear and well padded. Decent looking bag, especially in Sepia, but not like the Filson. I do wonder if a backpack may be a decent way to travel as the weight would be better supported and many backpacks have facility for a tripod.

albireo_double Posted January 4, 2016 Share #60 Posted January 4, 2016 Just pre-ordered the Wotancraft Commander backpack...will see if and how the S system fits in (if not then I will find a different use for it as I really like the look and shape of it).
