Review on Domke F-6 Little Bit Smaller Bag (Olive) by Mike Snedeker

I've been using Domke bags for about 20 years and I'm surprised people complain about zips keeping bags closed. If you have at least a thumb and a finger on one hand, they're no harder to open than any other fastener. I suspect the reason Domke uses these spring latches is because it's the only latch that won't accidentally open. I have a lot of gear with plastic snaps or similar on a dog leash or carabiner and sooner or later they accidentally open (and the plastic snaps wear out and break). It's no good opening a camera bag while crossing a log over a creek or through snow or in a not so good area. Yes, these bags aren't as soft as some of the others, but they're not designed for that. They are designed for professional photographers who want a lightweight, accessible and flexible case and understand that taking a picture is more important than getting a bump or scratch on their camera. I like ads on eBay for used cameras in mint condition, which means the camera was spun in and never used.
