it's big but looks comfy to carry...

I've had my eye on its smaller sibling, the Domke F-831...

i was tempted to get one yesterday, but they only have them in brown waxwear and i'm not too sure about that waxwear.

Didn't you give up on your quest for a perfect bag last week?

 

[back alley]

no longer looking for perfect...just another...

I like the waxwear, at least, from the photos. What is it like when you touch and feel?

i have read that it wears/rubs off onto one's clothes...

From what I've seen on the net Joe this bag doesn't do it for me. It's bigger than the f-803 (which I didn't like either) and with less pockets. It's not as wide and it's deeper. Are you looking to use it for your DSLR coz I don't think it would suit an RF kit.

 

[back alley]

yes, for the dslr kit...right now it all (mostly) fits into the domke 5xc but it's tight and hard to get at the gear.

actually, i think i'm gonna try the f6 bag again...had a couple, sold them but i think it would work for the dslr...

Nope, I've hauled around my F3x wax wear daily for well over year now without noticing some weird waxy buildup on my clothes. The bag has picked up some blue and black dyes from my jeans, though.
It's served me well on fire coverage working in close quarters with hydrants that don't seal too well to the hoses.
I've got an F831 on the way in wax wear as well.

Joe - if you're interested in a TT Retro 20 (Pinestone) or a Domke F2 Sand (Nikwax'ed and includes 4-compartnet insert), PM me... we can work something out.

Given your fashion choices, the problem is? ... 😛

just saw this...i have the 5 and 10 and am waiting on the 7 now...if i keep the dslr kit i think the 30 is the one that would fit the kit.
