Review on πŸŽ’ Amazon Basics 2-Way Camera Bag - Compact and Durable (Green), Size 14 x 10 x 5 Inches by Luis Green

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well made and versatile but small

This is a very interesting case that's really designed for compact cameras. If you have a small point and shoot camera like my old Nikon Coolpix L830, it's perfect for storing that camera along with accessories and consumables (batteries, lens cleaners, etc.). If you have a standard DSLR like the D3500 or D5100 it will be very cramped for the camera body and a lens and there will be little room for other gear. I ordered this for a used D5100 that I recently bought, but ended up using it to carry my lenses (four in total), keeping both cameras in my original Nikon case. Among the special features: very well made, with durable materials. The entire bag and its dividers are generously padded and the dividers stick VERY well to the attached velcro straps - almost too well in fact as they stick once they touch the soft material making it a bit frustrating to attach exactly to your liking. The strap and buckle are large and strong, with a large adjustable and removable shoulder pad. There are multiple zipped pockets including one on the front, one on the inside (split) and even one on the bottom for storing small items. What I like most about this bag is its versatility, as it can be worn as a belt bag or crossbody. If you want to use a belt I wouldn't overload it as it will sag, but you can't use it as a shoulder bag. The corner zip is ideal for quick access to your gear. Conclusion: For my purposes, this is a great accessory bag and I'm glad I got it. Compact camera users should be fine with this for quick shots.

Pros
  • Lots of compartments and pockets; includes padded panels for added protection
Cons
  • Available in white only
