My go-to bag for photoshoots
on July 24, 2025
Posted by: Anonymous
from Edmonton AB
I bought this when they first offered it on kickstarter, and it's been a staple for all my photoshoots ever since. Thousands of shoots, I think. Well made, looks great, customizable inserts, perfect for my lenses and flashes.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Almost perfect
on October 19, 2025
Posted by: Roald
I bought this bag only yesterday but it works perfectly fine for my Z9 and two small lenses (24-70 and 85). Can even hold my 70-200 including FTZ. Just a fraction more room for the Z9 would have been nice but isn't a real problem. The one thing preventing me for rating 5 starts is the strap. When at full length (I'm a tall guy) the padding isn't centred and doesn't add support on the shoulder any more, only noticed this once I got home. Seems to be a very easy fix, remove the strap and add strap ends with anchors, then use a Slide as the strap. Can even be added retrospectively!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Really like this bag… just wish it was a couple of liters bigger. Little tight as an everyday office carry. How about a 15L version?

Great and pretty bag but…

That messenger bag is really beautiful and well designed! I love the new green color too! The only flaw would be that it's more of a DSLR photo bag; my Leica M lenses need way less space in the inserts, so I need to put a camera cube in it… Not so quick to get one out then! As for my Fuji system, it's more okay, but still a bit too wide. And if I want to use it as a computer bag only, then I have to remove all the inserts because the scratch is using up the whole bag. So please make a bit smaller bag one day, promise ? I don't like the sling bags because then it's too tight! There is something missing between this 13 L. bag and the sling 10 L.… Peak: why not combine your camera cube system and your EDC carry so then you can switch from outdoor bags or travel bags to a city bag easily, as you travel goes (just like Shimoda did…) ;) Eager to see the next version of it though ! Cheers, M.

Love It - Great Item

So far I absolutely love it. My first camera bag was the 6L sling. Now I switched to full frame, got two camera bodies, and carry additional lenses and flash equipment and the 13L really let's me carry a lot more. It's great design that I expect from Peak and it looks awesome too.
