Agent M10 Posted January 11, 2016 Share #81 Posted January 11, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Billingham Pro Shoulder Bag – Probably good for carrying three lenses and camera. The other two bags are better for two lenses and the camera. Mat is a monster; I don't know that I could even lift as much as he carries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other two bags are better for two lenses and the camera. Mat is a monster; I don't know that I could even lift as much as he carries. This is the Billingham 307, thanks. It is one I am considering and I can see it at a local camera dealer. Maybe the ONA as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
erlingmm Posted January 27, 2016 Share #83 Posted January 27, 2016 I have the Billingham 555 which can carry absolutely everything, but I have ordered the Wotancraft Ranger for more everyday use: http://www.wotancraft.com/product.php?lan=_en&pid=10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan.y Posted January 28, 2016 Share #84 Posted January 28, 2016 I just got an Artisan and Artist WCAM-3500N made of nylon mostly with water resistant zippers. Fits S body with lens plus two extra lenses comfortably. Protection sufficient not great. But it is compact and very light, good for walking around town. I like its relative flatness (not too thick away from body) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for me, I am still very happy with my new Peak Design messenger bag. So many excellent choices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaW Posted January 28, 2016 Share #87 Posted January 28, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I haven't red all the 5 pages of this thread so pardon the possible redundancy. But I really don't understand the shoulder bag thing. The less I'll need when shooting is a big shoulder bag hanging on my side. It's unstable and way too heavy (with lenses + body inside) for only 1 strap and quickly gives neckpain. A correctly choosen backpack is the only option for me. It's a lot more stable and feels a lot less heavy than a shoulder bag (3 lenses + body + bag = around 6kg / 13lb). A Billingham shoulder bag is more elegant and can more easily be put on the ground. But who really does that and then safely wander to make some pics ? I'm using a Thinktank retrospective 5 shoulder bag for my Sony. An S body with a 70mm can also fit inside more or less easily. Nice option to walk with the S + 1 lens. The retrospective 10 I've purchased was a total waste of money. It can accomodate the S body + 2 lenses but is so uncomfortable that I never use it. Don't want to criticize anyone's choice. Just want to give another point of view that could be usefull to the reader that is about to buy its own bag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill W Posted January 28, 2016 Share #88 Posted January 28, 2016 I acquired the Billingham 307 mainly for transporting my S kit when necessary. It is not something I would use as a carry around bag. I usually work from a tripod with my S and I can use one of several other small bags to carry two lens, an extra battery and my Schneider filter system.

albireo_double Posted February 2, 2016 Share #89 Posted February 2, 2016 If anybody's looking for a rucksack for the S system that is not too large or outdoorsy, I can now recommend the Wotancraft Commander, having taken delivery today, about 3 weeks after placing a "pre-order" on their website. Looks like whoever designed this rucksack shoots with the S system and a Profoto B2 kit as the measurements are optimal for this combination. The S fits in one of the bottom pockets, with a 70 CS attached, hood reversed. A Profoto B2 generator fits in the other bottom pocket. A 45 CS lens or similar, with a hood reversed, goes in the top insert, plus one B2 lamp next to it, separated with a divider. Enough spare room in the top compartment, outside of the padded insert, for the S charger and the B2 car charger. Pockets comfortably big enough for 2-3 filters, Air-remote trigger, passport, wallet, car keys, mobile phone. Rear compartment sized to fit a 15" retina MBP. Waterproof jacket / poncho can go under the lid or be secured outside, with the straps. A Sigg bottle can be hung on the side, using a carabiner. The rucksack is not big enough/ideal for multi-day trekking but great for vehicle based trips with walks included, as a carry-on for all critical gear when flying, or for exploring cities.

BigBabyEarl Posted October 21, 2016 Share #90 Posted October 21, 2016 Resurrecting this chat. I'm looking for the smallest bag to hold a two lens kit. Has anyone used the Oberwerth Heidleberg? What about the Billingham S4 or 1.4? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McMaster Posted October 21, 2016 Share #91 Posted October 21, 2016 Depends on which two lenses and if you want one attached to the body, easier if three separate items IMO.... john Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deliberate1 Posted October 21, 2016 Share #92 Posted October 21, 2016 Still total fan for my Peak Design bag. See description and photos on previous page. Perfect for one body with 70, 35 and 120, with doo-dads. David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djmay Posted October 21, 2016 Share #93 Posted October 21, 2016 For just two lenses I use a Freitag messenger bag. Jesse Sent from my Lenovo YT3-850L using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
