OK, I'll be the first to admit that I can be slow at times, but just to clarify for others that may be looking at the Domke F-5XB bag. I bought the F-5XB that had the "Tamron-Domke" label on it (which incidentally was really easy to cut off) because it was less expensive. Other than that, it looked identical to the "Domke" labeled F-5XB. However, there appears to be one difference. The "Tamron-Domke" labeled bag does not have the pass-through in the back to accommodate the Domke (or any other) belt. If you only plan to wear it as a shoulder bag, then might as well go with the lesser-expensive bag. However, if you would like to sometime try it as a belt bag, then you'll need to spend the additional money to get the actual Domke bag.

Not sure which way I would have ultimately preferred it, but I have to admit it annoys me that they use the exact same number for what is in fact two different bags. This Tamron-Domke bag even came with a Domke product brochure.
