I live in Oregon, where it rains constantly. My old everyday bag was poorly water resistant, resulting in me needing to empty and dry it regularly. I purchased the sling so that I could have a waterproof bag, and so far it has worked great. The bag is waterproof. Thanks!
I picked up the 3L for my Leica Q and it is the perfect fit! I can carry the camera, the charger, two batteries, three filters and a half-dozen memory cards with room to spare.
I originally bought the 3L Sling a year ago to carry a Nikon 3500 plus a prime lens in the city. They both fit nicely, although a bit tight. The bag is very comfortable and durable and gives me peace of mind when it rains.
Although the size limits how much camera gear you can carry, this bag is excellent for carrying everyday items. I usually pack a journal, my phone, a pen, headphones and a mini umbrella. It's very practical and looks nice. After more than a year of use it's held up very nicely. 100% recommended.
I went for the 3L version of the sling because I wanted a smaller bag. My main backpack is still my PD Everyday, but sometimes that's just more space than I need.
Things I like about it: - Great design which colour matches to my main bag (I have both in Ash) - Comfortable strap - Easy to use zips - Not too bulky and doesn't get in the way
I've used it in two ways so far and packed like this.
For a quick trip into town to do some street photography and pick up a few small things: - Fujifilm XT30 with a prime attached (35mm F2) - 60% of the bag as free space for holding shopping - USB C cable and a power bank in the front pocket
Used as a kit bag when photographing a gig at a local indie venue: - XT30 and 56mm Prime - Two spare primes (35 and 23 F2) - Power Bank and cable in front pocket as before
And this is the SMALL version of the bag! A larger size could easily be a sizable EDC foe those who don't like backpacks.
I have the 10L V1 and V2 use this bag probably more than any other bag I have. I miss the straps being permanently attached to the bottom of it like on the V1
I absolutely love my everyday sling. With that said there is a couple reason I won’t give it 5 stars. It needs better padding on the strap, maybe a wider strap. When you have it on all day on and have it packed full it really digs into shoulder. I wish there was some sort of way to easily attach the capture clip to strap and have it be aligned properly up and down. I would prefer to carry the camera on chest than at almost hip level with capture clip. I have bumped my camera into things carrying it externally at hip level with capture clip in the recommended clip location. And last thing I really want is a stabilizer strap. To many times I have bent over to pick something up and the bag slides around me and almost slams into the ground.
The bag works wonderfully to hold a few items and a camera. I bought the largest one, I think, and it can just about hold my DSLR and a lens, so my only criticism would really be that I wish the interior volume was a little bit bigger, especially at the bottom. Other than that: Great build quality, lots of handy pockets, and the possibility of attaching a jacket or tripod below using the hooks and straps included is defo a useful feature.
