That split strap for the Peak Design clip is absolute genius! I've been using bags that have shoulder strap MOLLE for my clip because I hated the rubbing if worn "traditionally".
VERY good video! You showed the entire bag with such details within a short time, sweet and concise. Just because of THIS video, i might be looking at this bag now.
Be aware...Shimoda says this fits a 16" laptop but it is very tight. You won't be storing and removing that laptop with one hand. If you have a case on your $3400 MacBook Pro (like I do) it's very difficult to store and remove. After the 16" laptop is in, that front pocket also gets tight and much less usable. Anything you put in the front pocket better be very thin. I think a dedicated zipper area would have been better than having it's access be INSIDE of another compartment.
You don't use the side access. In my case, having the side access on the wrong side is a deal-breaker. What were they thinking with a left-handed use camera pull-out pocket? They flushed the entire desined down the toilet. To make it more useless, they placed the tripod pocket on top of it, to make sure nobody would access their camera without setting down the bag.
i need a camera bag like this, but with a detachable waist strap! is there anything around that has a waist strap you can detach? i dont need it for general walking around or travel, but hiking and cycling it is a must.
Where did you Get the pouch, you showed when you started showing content in your bag? Is the side pockets easy to get to when out walking, or do you kinda need to do full stop and take off the bag to get to camera?
That's an EVERGOODS element drop in pouch! Great slim organiser. As for the stopping question. I usually come to a full stop when walking with it, but that's mainly because I don't use the side access!
@bachcomic is correct - it's the PD x SITKA collab clip. I think the light colour Shimoda UE looks awesome, and as it's made from this same ReCor it'll be tough as nails! Personally, I like that lighter bags show their own patina/character too!
It comes down to preference I suppose? Some of our crew like it fast and light, some will take the extra weight for extra protection when carrying their gear! What's your camera bag of choice?
@@CarryologyTV I respectfully disagree. Too much weight for a backpack intended to be used in an "urban" style with minimal equipment. I am still searching for my ideal backpack; I have tried many and have come to the conclusion that backpacks specifically designed for camera equipment are not suitable for me. They are overly complicated, excessively bulky, with unnecessary protection. This, of course, is my personal opinion, and I do not intend to offend anyone.
