I received this bag as a gift. I already have some Peak Design gear, and I thought this would be a good lightweight camera bag. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that it happens to be a perfect fit for my drone setup. I have my Mavic 2 Pro, 3 spare batteries (in LiPo safe bags...more without), the controller, a MavMount and a tablet holder, as well as my 12.9” iPad Pro. I even have room for spare cables, ND filters, spare props, Micro SD cards, and anti-collision lights. There is even a tiny bit of room left over if you can get more creative. The charger won't fit, but being able to carry 4, maybe 5 batteries will get me through just about anything I've needed my drone for. The only change I would make would be to have 2 zippers on the main compartment instead of one.

Minimal set up
on January 12, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous
This bag is great for a camera and 2-3 extra lenses depending on zooms or primes. This fits well with my xt3, 16-55mm 2.8 and 56mm 1.2 and the PD tripod on the outside strap (be careful you would need to secure it with a carabiner for more security) I can probably fit 2 more prime lenses. Overall I don't mind the weight to one shoulder.

A wonderful everyday bag that holds even more than the previous 10L version.
on January 15, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous
This new version of the 10L makes it easier to use that whole volume. The expansion of the previous one was neat, but made some of the space harder to make good use of. I'm able to fit more of my bigger things in this one, and that's great. The double zipper for the main pocket is also a very welcome change, along with the improved friction fit of the straps. My one nitpick is that the top interior zippered pocket (for SD cards and things) is a regression from the previous one. The pockets seem to eject what I put in them a bit easier, and the pocket is a bit shallower. Still a great pocket, but it's not as good at organizing my little things.
Definitely an improvement overall, and the best sling bag I've ever owned. If you have a bunch of small things to organize then you may need to get a little organize for them, but expect this bag to hold a lot of things very nicely and to last a long long time. I'm very happy with the bag and would absolutely recommend it!

6L Compare to Retrospective 5L V2.0
on January 15, 2020
Posted by: dennis
I've had the Retrospective for 1.5 years and travel around world (ex: Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Taiwan, London, and Paris). Think tank made a great bag, but it lack a few features that Sling 6L V2.0 has. Like Think Tank's Velcro main flap with added zippered opening for security. It's not water resistance, so they provide a rain coat that is too small when there is a lot of stuff and it ripped.
The equipment I care includes: Sony A7R3 w/ 50mm F2.8, Osmo Pocket, Gopro 8 Black, Gopro Batteries (3), GoPro Grip + Tripod, Pelican SD Cards Case, Hydro Flask Water Bottle (20 oz), Hand santiazier, Gopro attachments, OSMO Pocket filters.
The Peak Design 6L solved many of the Retrospective 2.0 missing features like DWR coat, tripod holder and easier adjuster for the strap.
However, below are a few features they could add to make it even better: 1. water pouch or camera pouch that can be attached outside (separate purchase). I like to carry water or buy water when traveling and there is no where to attach it. the extra strap used for capture clip can be use for pouches. It would be great to allow modular add-ons 2. a better strap hing to support shoulder carry. Shoulder carrying isn't as comfortable as other slings like retrospective which you can use as a sling or shoulder carry 3. Magnetic detach point for strap like other companies for quick removal. 4. Luggage carry pass-through for roller-top carry for 6L

Best Service and a trendy bag I love since Mark 1
on January 16, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous
Although I had two failed bags that had minor damages (bought from two different sellers ), peak design support send me a replacement within a few weeks. They were even faster than the local sellers themselves.
I had the mark 1 and bought the mark 2 right away when it was available. My old mark one is still good to good and now serves a friend. The mark 2 was interesting because it offered that tiny bit more space.
1 thing really bugs me: it is more difficult to tighten the strap in hip bag mode. It frustrated me the last time I tried
1 minor thing would have been nice to see on the mark 2: the leather handle was so nice to touch instead of the current one. Anyway I love.

BEST SLING I HAVE USED
on January 16, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous
I recently starting using the everyday sling V2 10L. I can comfortably fit my surface pro, canon80d with a 18-35mm attached and slotted neatly on the side my 70-200mm lens as well. The size, materials and interiors of the bag are really thought out and help me utilise my camera gear. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BAG
