Advertisement Posted October 13, 2016 Posted October 13, 2016 Hi Leicaiste, Take a look here Which bag for the SL. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
ramarren Posted October 14, 2016 Share #382 Posted October 14, 2016 No room for the lens hoods. I bet they'd fit just fine, fitted in reverse onto the lenses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brill64 Posted October 15, 2016 Share #383 Posted October 15, 2016 wow, that 90-280 is longer than i thought..perhaps if you kept the 24-90 attached to the SL, you'd end up with extra space if you needed it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjdrijfhout Posted October 25, 2016 Share #384 Posted October 25, 2016 Based on positive comments above, I got the bag. Have been puzzling a bit for optimal lay-out. Reversing the typical lay-out for a backpack and have camera on the bottom-side pointing up, instead of top-side pointing down, gives the most space. Both 90-280 and 24-90 can be accommodated on-camera without changing lay-out, and still some space for additional lenses. Lens hoods can be added in reverse position, but makes the total package quite tight. Now have to get used to carrying a backpack, so far mostly used messenger bags... Welcome, dear visitor!

Jeff S Posted October 26, 2016 Share #385 Posted October 26, 2016 Keeping the lens attached to the camera may allow for more efficient packing as well as keeping dust off sensor, but some folks advise detaching lens (especially during travel) in case a drop causes a (long) lens to act a lever against the mount. Others suggest this is unnecessary, or a ploy by salesmen to encourage purchase of bigger bags. Jeff 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyhf Posted November 6, 2016 Share #386 Posted November 6, 2016 Using Peak Design Messenger 15", I was able to squeeze in SL + 90-280 with reversed hood and tripod collar, Olympus E-M1 + 300/4 with hood retracted and tripod collar, 3 SL batteries, 3 E-M1 batteries, Sony RX100, 11" notebook +/- iPad mini, two 82mm filters and monopod. Good fit but heavy, almost 10kg on one shoulder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KariP Posted November 8, 2016 Share #387 Posted November 8, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I made a bag that is suited for my equipment (not my first one). First sketch out what you want to have with you. Then select a suitable bag - in my case Marimekko Architect bag. The protective plywood box has outside measures 37 x 15 cm (28 cm high). It has protective padding inside and at the bottom. The dividers are made for SL lenses, flash, filters, and M(240), M9P and/or Q. The following pictures give you an idea: Welcome, dear visitor!

KariP Posted November 8, 2016 Share #388 Posted November 8, 2016 This is how it functions: Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! From left: M9P + 18mm / M(240) + 50 lux / SL + 24-90 (underneath box w cleaning set, side box filters) / SL 90-280 side box SF 58 flash The triangular supports for small cameras aren't horizontal but tilted so that the bodies rest vertical (and with space below for small stuff) Other set up: M9P + 18mm / M(240) + 50 lux / SL + 90-280 / Q underneath 90 cron side box SF 58 flash. Front there are many pockets of different size and one that is fully wide for iPad etc. My point is - do it yourself! It's a fine experience and you get a bag that is just fitted to what you want to carry and IMO the hard box protects the gear quite nicely. The original lens shades don't fit in but thats for another DIY-post... 7 Link to post Share on other sites Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

Arai Posted November 8, 2016 Share #389 Posted November 8, 2016 That will be unbearable heavy for long trip.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KariP Posted November 8, 2016 Share #390 Posted November 8, 2016 Hahaha... true. It is heavy and big. But I'm used to carrying such a load. But not on long hikes though... Then there is the set-up to leave the SL lenses home and have just the 90mm cron on SL. Then I have 18, 28, 50 and 90 mm all on their own body. So dust or delay in changing lenses.

wjdrijfhout Posted November 9, 2016 Share #391 Posted November 9, 2016 Was using the ONA Nylon Brixton messenger and ONA Camps Bay backpack and thought I was happy with them, but decided to give the Oberwerth Heidelberg a try. So glad I did! It is the perfect size for both AF and MF SL setups. Favorite bag in years. To switch between AF/MF systems just slip in the insert and go! For AF (90-280 & SL w/30-90 attached): Remove the insert, add a long piece of foam to the bottom, put the 90-280 in a ClikElite Large neoprene Lens Wrap and slip SL with 30-90 attached into empty end of the bag. For MF (R80-200, M Noctilux, and SL w/R28-90 attached): Add insert with MF gear + SL or use flip&tumble micro tote (which I keep in my camera bag anyway) to carry the insert when not in use. Bonus: Snap on a Billingham 2" SP20 shoulder pad. I've been looking at the Oberwerth Heidelberg, but was told that when putting the 90-280 in, it would extend quite a bit from the top. You seem to have found the solution. Would you be able to post a photo of the Heidelberg with SL w/24-90 + 90-280? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Fish Posted November 10, 2016 Share #392 Posted November 10, 2016 I bought the Peak Design Messenger 15" this week for an SL body, 24-90, SF64, G-Tech 1TB t/b storage, 15" MacBook Pro, cables and all other guff. If I take out the flash and the rest of the photo stuff I can fit in a Zoom H6 recorder and a couple of RodeLink wireless Lav kits. Heavy as hell though, but strap nice, I will probably get the new backpack PD at xmas if I have to hike a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elwyn Posted November 25, 2016 Share #393 Posted November 25, 2016 (edited) I had the excellent Wontancraft Ryker bag for my Leica M and 35/50/75 Cron Lenses. However, I recently upgraded to the SL (loving it) and the 24-90 Elmarit as well as my 3 M Lenses. I needed to get a larger bag for the occasions when I wanted to be about with all 4 lenses (rare I grant you), and bought a barely used Fogg B Magor which has proven excellent for this purpose.

I also have the B Major for the SL plus both zooms (with room to squeeze in the SF64). What I have learned from carrying this weight around for long periods is that I doubt I could trust any bag where the strap does not go under the base: I'd worry about trusting stitching alone at attachment points.

Patrickxyz Posted November 26, 2016 Share #398 Posted November 26, 2016 I have Thinktank Retrospective 30 and SL fits well with both Zooms (24-90 and 90-280). I also have space for Noctilux in holder and LeicaQ. Alternatively flash fits in instead of LeicaQ (I think - did not try that setup yet). So far I found this bag the best for the set. My SL is in the bag with 24-90 and hood on. If needed I can post pictures of my bag. Could you please post a picture how the SL and the zooms fit in? Thanks, Patrick 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubaga Posted November 28, 2016 Share #399 Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) Could you please post a picture how the SL and the zooms fit in? Thanks, Patrick Here it is. Please note that 24-90 is attached to camera with hood on. 90-280 is with hood in reverse. As you can see one more SL body will feet nicely into the bag. The third compartment currently contains noctilux in the pouch. Edited November 28, 2016 by rubaga 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you can see one more SL body will feet nicely into the bag. The third compartment currently contains noctilux in the pouch. Rubaga, thank you. This is very kind and helpful. I was looking for the Retrospective 20 the other day as it fits the long 90-280 perfectly. But this seems to work as well as the lens sticks out only minimally.Best, Patrick Edited November 28, 2016 by patrickw 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
