Review on πŸ“· Timbuk2 Camera Sling Bag - Enhancing SEO by Derek Dolla

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits DSLRs too, not just mirrorless cameras

I took this bag with me on trips when I didn't want to carry a huge bag full of gear. Not sure why they advertise it for mirrorless cameras, it works great for DSLRs. The detachable bag is handy (although the drawstring on it is a bit annoying, it can be folded over the padding so it doesn't get in the way too much) and makes it easy to travel with or take apart. I can mount a 5D or 6D with a medium lens attached and an extra lens and still close it. The best I can fit is a 6D at 135f/2 and 35f/1.4 and it's almost at its breaking point (the second lens doesn't fit in the small bag that comes with it, but I can put a second pocket inside to use the entire space outside pocket). It usually has a camera with a 50mm lens and is perfect for that. I took off a star because the shoulder strap is a bit annoying. I'm used to Timbuk2 products with really good padding on the shoulder straps, with a nice sliding sleeve, but this one has a solid piece of slightly softer fabric. It takes some time to adjust properly and doesn't allow for comfortable shoulder changes.

Pros
