Hi,
I am searching for a waist bag (fanny pack / bum bag / waist pouch) to use in the mountain when skiing. I want it to be the smallest possible bag that will fit a single Leica body with a small lens (say, 35mm summicron) and nothing else.
I have not found any promising options. They are all too big or too small. The bag doesn't have to be environmentally sealed, but a zipper is a good feature.
You guys got any suggestion?

I like Mountainsmith bum bags, I have a Tour and it's just right for 1 rangefinder or micro 4/3 body with space for an extra lens, film, small flash.

For my mirrorless cameras I have been using a Lowepro Orion Mini and I love it.
( However it seems to be discontinued and I don't find any replacement of the same, small size. Surprisingly there is very little choice out there for camera waist bags which I don't understand, specially if using a smallish camera imo they are soo much more convenient than anything that has a shoulder strap. Recently I bought a second, used Lowepro Orion Mini )

The best camera is one that still works!
I seem to remember seeing some really nice small ones in a mountain bike accessory catalog recently.

I have a Chrome Industries Niko Sling bag which should fit a Leica body and a Summicron lens.
I sling it across my chest rather then use it as a waist pouch though.
Here's a link to check it out
