The medium camera cube I received is pretty much perfect for the gear I have. I have a Fuji X-T4 and X-E4 with an assortment of lenses. I found that the medium camera cube holds just about everything camera related and makes it easy to grab items when I need them. Unfortunately, I have not been able to fit the battery chargers and necessary cabling, but I have not spent a great deal of time trying to make it all fit. I'm sure I can figure something out. I might need to add a small camera cube eventually, but for now the there is great long term value for me and the Fuji X system gear I have.
Searched camera bags for way to long and came upon the Peak Design cube. A perfect solution to keep my DSLR and lenses well protected. Added bonus it fits in my favorite day pack. Multiple zipper access options make is super easy to get to my camera with a 120-400mm attached. Great product. Helpful comprehensive videos. Fast delivery. A winner!
I love love love this this camera cube. I currently use it with my R5 when I travel. I got the smaller size and it still packs a punch in terms of size. I can fit my adapter, 50mm lens, 24-70, and my 24 mm. I’ve recommended this product to my colleagues - after many failed products through the years I was skeptical, but was left pleasantly surprised with my cube. I take it everywhere with me now and can pack in in a 20L, 30L, and 45L with no issue.
This organizer holds SO much gear and it's well padded to add peace of mind. I consistently travel between NYC and Boston using this inside of an Travel Backpack 45L and duffel bag 65L. This holds my A7iii with a battery grip, 70-200 2.8, 24-70 2.8, 14mm, 35 1.4, case of filters, all with room to store extra accessories. I also have the small version of this cube which I use for rigging gear, but that one would be perfect for a mid-pro tier DCIM with 1-2 lenses.
I put this thing in my duffel 65l with room for clothes, in a hard case, and use it on it's own. I carry 2 DSLR cameras, one with battery grip and one without. 2 compact primes, a telephoto zoom, a regular prime, and an ultra wide prime. Plus room for a p&s film camera or extra lens. Battery charger and spare batteries, slide strap, and a capture clip. It handles it all.
I'm off to Antarctica in the next three weeks and bought this for the trip. Given I'll be out in all wet weathers potentially, I planned to put this in a dry sack. I'd have been delighted with the cube if it opened at the end too so there were two ways to get the camera in and out. My fault for not thinking about it before hand. It fits my camera great perfectly though.
This is a nice and unique bag, but did not meet my needs. It is just too big for a smaller DSLR (Nikon D5500). It does not come with sufficient dividers and the ones it does come with did not fold/bend very easily. There are other good quality bags that have more features (including a strap that does not cost as much as the bag itself) in a smaller package, but this back might be right for larger cameras with more accessories.
