time for a bag thread!!

[back alley]

got a crumpler 4 million dollar bag in the mail today and i have to say that i like the little crump better than the bigger one i recently bought and quickly sold.

it fits my panasonic g1 with both kit lenses perfectly. it is the old style and has only one buckle to dangle while walking and the green/brown combo colour ain't half bad.
i think i'll be keeping this one.

and while i'm at it, i am loving my fake a&a bag (i think the oskar is the copied model).
it is easier to use then the similarly sized domke 5xb because there is no top zipper, just open space. i like it! and am tempted to get another to house the second rd1 kit.

ok, that's it. you all can go back to talking about the m9 now...

Interesting looking bag Joe. How does the size of the a&a copy compare to the 5xb?

if you are what you are in your avatar that 4MD crunpler will look like a coin purse😀. My small bag is a Domke F5Xb.

it's a tad longer and wider but you have to put them side by side to notice.
it's nylon and leather so it is lighter and molds to my side easier.

Looks like it will hold an M9 nicely Joe! 🙂

gotta tell ya the indian hills' bare bones bag is THE rf kit bag for me. i liked it so well i bought two, one for each RF and a couple lenses and stuff, so i grab and go.

 

[vrgard]

I agree with you Mike. I've been using the bare bones bag in place of my trusty 5xb for a while now. Really like it for a single rangefinder camera and an extra lens or two, along with film, an ND filter, etc. But I'm interested in the a&a copy for a small Pentax dslr kit that's just a bit too much for the 5xb.

I was going to ask if it was a good bag for an M9...

That is a nice bag. I have a LowePro Nova 2 bag which was cheaper than that and can hold 2 small rangefinders plus an extra lens.

Isn't the other logical question, "what color bag does a M9 look best in?"

 

[nightfly]

Looks like a good size bag. Not so keen on the leather front. I wish he had a non deluxe version in all canvas or nylon.

Is there a full length pocket along the back for a folded newspaper or anything?

the leather gives it a nice look i think.
there is a back pocket with a snap in the middle if you want.

Okay, Joe, you convinced me to try one of those a&a copies. I'll let you know what I think after I get it.

-Randy

 

[back alley]

i hope to order a second also but i am also saving for an m9...err, no not an m9 but the panasonic 20/1.7, sold locally for 500 canadian smackers!

if you hate it then give me first dibs if you sell it, please.

I agree with Randy and Mike, the BBB is the bag for my RF shooting needs. I am thinking about the the smaller BBB, too.

 

[back alley]

the bbb bag just doesn't look very substantial to me.

I just bought an old Tenba bag for ~15$ :F works great.
