Review on ๐ŸŽ’ Peak Design Everyday Sling 6L Black - Versatile Sling Bag for Shoulder or Crossbody Carry (BEDS-6-BK-2) by Suhas Carney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great upgrade from the original 5 liter tote bag

Let me start by saying this bag is a wonderful bag, it's the perfect size, sits well on the back and holds the right amount gear without being heavy. Watch my video to see the bag better. This is a high quality bag with a water resistant recycled material on the outside. Axial connectors on the left and right of the shoulder straps allow the bag to move freely. The middle strap on the back of the bag is no longer big enough to fit over a rolling suitcase, but I've found that if you convert it into a bum bag and then tighten the straps all the way, it can be used as a tote bag . Baggage goes through. The bag offers enough space for a 2-lens camera as well as for your sufficiently large iPad or tablet. The main update of the 6L over the 5L is that this bag now has many external carry points. It has 2 external carrying points for the Peak design camera clip that I use for the camera on one side and a Peak design double rotating lens holder on the other side. This new bag also offers the most important upgrade, which is the carrying point for your tripods, monopods or even your stabilizers. A few things to note that you're missing out on in this version of the bag. The shoulder strap isn't as easy to adjust as the original 5 liter version I may have, but I've used two 6 liter versions now and they are the same. It's not difficult, it's right now, and it requires a hold and pull motion rather than just a pull motion based on the weight of the bag. Keep in mind that the quality of these straps is MUCH better than the quality of the 5L straps, they have more padding and are more comfortable to wear for hours. Another thing they left out with this update was the external security feature, which was that you could tie two zippers together, which would make it harder for thieves to get into the bag. I have to say, all things considered, I still think this was the update the Sling Bag series needed. The outer carrying points alone are worth it.
