...?
Well, let's look at this...
It's black, canvas, softer than any Domke or Safrotto, so it hugs your body. It's completely devoid of any labels, now that I have cut the one small white one off the left hand pocket, where it couldn't be seen anyway.
The shoulderstrap has one adjusting buckle, low at one end. The strap is long enough to wear bandalero style. There is no velcro. The front fastening is by two big buttons, with leather tabs.
It's light. It has two big front pockets - big enough for a large format paperback - and a big main compartment, large enough to take a Hadley Pro insert with room to spare.
Inside is a separate twin pouch arrangement, fastened only along the top edge, so it can be laid on top of other bag contents, or tucked behind.
The first pouch is big enough for a Leica M with rapidwinder and small lens, or, as here, a small LTM. The second pouch is narrower, but as deep. It happily accepts a 135mm f4.0, or, as here, a VC 75 and 28 with a b2b coupler.
Bought in GAP, of all places. for a very reasonable £19.50. Currently drying after it's first trip through the washing machine, to kill the newness. A couple more washes, then a nikwax spray treatment, and it'll do the job.
Regards,
Bill
