How big is this bag? My K-x plus kit lens and 55-300 is arriving this week, but I feel like this bag might be too big for my needs. But, it seems like such a good deal... I would love to see a picture of someone holding this bag? !!

I've got a pretty small setup as well, but I'm looking at a big bag so I don't have to take a camera bag and another bag to hold the other stuff.

I'd like to see this bad on a real human as well.

at first i used the bag to carry my gripped K20D, 12-24mm, 35mm, 50-135mm, 90mm, 70-300 and flash, but it got heavy and i've never used all of it on a single shoot.

i just switched the dividers around to turn it into a laptop + camera bag for school instead. if i don't have a laptop in it, that compartment can be used for quick and easy lens changing.

btw i keep a spare divider in the bag to stick on the front velcro if i need to silence it.



gripped K20D with 50mm on right, 50-135 on left, 12-24 in middle, mbp 13" at the back.

Yes..he will need it for sure once he gets his equipment and for future LBA attacks!
We all know we have all been on this road before!
It is better that he prepare now than buy a small bag..buy additional lens or flash..find that bag getting small..sell the bag..buy a bigger bag!
..oh yeah..this sounds very familiar!
Yeah, you're probably right, it's not a bad idea to buy to big... I'll consider this bag

Thanks for the info!

For $35 bucks, you can't go wrong.
Other bags sell for more..like even the smaller ones!
Getting this one would save you the agony of looking for a bigger bag later.

red version

Here is the red version of the bag. I'm using this bag for storage at the moment and I kept forgetting to do this

Hmm..red bag doesn't seem to have too much appeal as it is just red.
The internal compartments don't even have a nice color on them.
I'm definitely liking more the green than the other available colors.

I like the pale blue interior, since everything shows up against it, but I'm not real fond of the red exterior. I wish the brown bag had a lighter interior color instead of the "bright pond scum" green.

Anyone know if there's a cost effective (i.e. under US$70 incl. shipping) way of getting one of these babies to Australia?

I can't find an Australian distributor, but would love to get one (I'm not willing to pay the price for the real crumpler).

Cheers,
Dave

From the original site posted, the only available bag now is the red.
I haven't seen them restock the other colors.
These might be the last of them..I just hope not!

Seems to be the same bag. Price: $29.40

edit: I just noticed the dual clips so it isn't the same as the Versa bag.

^^^^ Description says waterproof canvas, but does not sound like nylon.
