Purchased the 6L for an upcoming trip to carry my camera and other essentials.
Pros: Roomy, easily accessible pockets. Durable material. Build quality it very good. Looks great. Tons of adjustability in the straps.
Cons: The large internal stretchy pockets do nothing more than get in the way as they're too loose against the inside of the bag and get caught on whatever you're putting in the bag. Very difficult to take tablet out of tablet pocket with anything in the bag. A separate zipper for this pocket would make a world of difference. Does not hold a FF DSLR and 70-200 lens as advertised. Even the hangtag says DSLR + 24-70mm.
This review is for the 10L sling bag. I have several products (at least 10) by PD. I ordered this bag for a 6 hour event with two Canon R cameras, a sigma 70-200mm and a sigma 24-70 with batteries, a v mount battery, an IFAK, canon flash, hoods. It held everything but the 24-70 mm setup, but that was fine for me as I was always shooting with one or the other camera. Zero snags on guests, chairs, doorways. I was wearing a leather coat as well. I also use this bag for EDC and storing other things is a really great bonus outside of work. The new compartments are very strong and clean and dextrous. The downside comes from the fact that it's a sling. A sling carried for more than a few hours at a time will turn into severe soreness the next day. This bag was no different. This is partly my fault because if I were hiking and shooting for that long, I would have a backpack, not a sling. No complaints beyond that. The 10L isa great middle ground between the backpack and the small duffle.
I couldn't be more satisfied with this camera bag! As a passionate photographer, finding the right bag to accommodate all my gear while ensuring its safety was a priority. This camera bag not only meets but exceeds all my expectations.
Firstly, its design is top-notch. The bag is intelligently compartmentalized, providing dedicated spaces for my camera body, lenses, accessories. The adjustable dividers make it so easy to customize the interior according to my specific needs for each shoot.
Durability is another highlight. The bag is constructed with high-quality, rugged materials that offer excellent protection against bumps and weather. I've taken it on various photo expeditions, from bustling city streets to rugged outdoor terrains, and it has stood the test remarkably well.
Comfort is something I greatly appreciate. The padded straps and back support make carrying even heavy equipment a breeze. Plus, the thoughtful addition of a waist strap distributes the weight evenly, reducing strain during long photo sessions.
Moreover, the attention to detail is evident. The zippers glide effortlessly, and the numerous pockets and compartments allow for organized storage of small items like memory cards, batteries, and cables.
In terms of style, this bag is sleek and professional-looking. It's not just a practical accessory but also adds a touch of sophistication to my photography ensemble.
Overall, this camera bag has become an indispensable part of my photography gear. Its functionality, durability, and thoughtful design make it a five-star product without a doubt. I wholeheartedly recommend it to any photographer in search of a reliable, versatile, and stylish bag for their equipment.
My husband has a everyday travel backpack, tech pouch and field pouch, he loves using them for travel but it usually gets too stuffed full. I got him this everyday 6L sling so he’d have more space and he absolutely LOVES it. I only have tech pouch so far but im aiming for the 30L backpack next
I've been using the 10L Sling for about a year now, and I have a love/not love relationship with it. So here it goes: LOVE how it's a comfortable pack to carry my camera gear, LOVE the asthetic, LOVE that I feel the insides are protected from basic daily stuff. But I DO NOT like the main zipper compartment having a "overhang" on the laptop sleeve- it makes getting my computer (a 14" MBP) really tricky if there's stuff in the bag. I DO NOT like that the upper inside zipper pocket is super small and barely useful. I DO NOT like that a full pack compresses the outside pocket that it becomes extremely difficult to access it. I really hope PD works to fix these issues so I can be forced to pay more money for a good bag. ;)
This is perfect for my Fujifilm X-T1 with battery extender, two modern lenses, two vintage lenses, extra batteries, flash and battery charger. It's SO light even with all of that on board. Perfect for travelling
