Anyone got one? On the face of it, it looks to be exactly what I'm after but it's so difficult to know for sure without actually seeing it first hand.

I really want it for travelling light, so to speak, with maybe room for a body and a couple of lenses with space for extras like passports, tickets and other bits & pieces.

So, if you've got one, how do you find it? How much can you get into it?
 
Problem with it as far as I can see is that you can't carry a camera with a lens attached so it's always going to be slow in use.

I've had a Domke F-4AF for a very long time and think it may be worth considering as an alternative.

Marc, I think you need to look at the Tenba mini messenger. Its not as narrow as that domke but its certainly not huge like most camera bags of that style. You can also fit a hell of a lot of kit in one. If there was some way I could show you my bag I would but logistically its probably a bit tricky.

Actually, these guys might be close to you and at least one member has bought from them. I think you are north of the river, right?

They look good Jim. I'm in Bedfordshire so quite a bit north of the river.

Its probably a little bit far to travel to look at a bag then. I knew you were north of the river and as a dyed in the wool sarf londoner anything above that line blends in to one!

The bag itself is a bit of a tardis. I have had my 7D with 18-50 siggy, 70-200 f4, 30mm and 50mm primes in there and then my ipad in the back pocket, along with batteries, cards etc. It was rather heavy but it all fit just fine and you can obviously put less in if required! ;)
