K&F Concept Alpha Camera Sling Bag 10L Photography Shoulder Bag, Compatible with Canon / Nikon / Sony Camears / DJI Mavic Drones - Sling Bag10L Urban Wander 01 (Grey)
SKU: KF13.157
When going out for a photo walk you don't always want to be encumbered by a backpack, especially if you are taking minimal gear with you, a camera sling is a nice compromise. I have bought filters from K&F Concept for some time now and always found them to be of good quality and a reasonable price, so when I was offered this to review this bag from them I jumped at the chance, I wasn't paid to do this and this is my honest opinion of usability and quality. The bag is well made with possibly the strongest internal pads I have ever seen in a bag of this size, perfect for keeping a small camera and a pair of lenses both protected and in place. There are 2 main zipped pockets that provide ample space for a phone, spare batteries and the other odds and ends you generally carry around when on a photowalk. The outside of the bag is wipe clean and I'd definitely showerproof, I took it out yesterday in light rain and had no issues with my kit getting wet and imagine it could probably take a heavier downpour without breaking a sweat. On the underside of the bag are the obligatory straps for a small tripod, whilst I tried mine for size it isn't something I normally have with me on an urban shoot which is what I feel this bag is best suited to so I can't comment on how comfortable it would be to carry with one attached a full days shooting. With the kit shown in the photo though it was very comfortable and for once I didn't get any neck pain, something that can be problematic with small camera bags. Whilst I haven't used it for my drone yet I can confirm that it easily takes my Mini 3 pro, 4 batteries with charger and controller, and affords more protection than the OE drone bag.

Took this on a recent vacation and it was great to wear and use for an entire day. I had my a7iii with the 24-105 f4 sony lens in there and it fit great. A little room for a couple small accessories. Better than just having the camera around neck or wrist for a whole day. Worth the price.

This is a decent, neat, compact bag for carrying a small number of DSLR essentials. The bag has an optional, detachable shoulder/crossbody strap with adjustable length and a grab handle on top. There are adjustable webbing straps on the underside to attach a tripod, and a padded zip-closing compartment on one side. Inside the main storage area, there is space for a camera plus installed lens, as well as two little slip pockets with hook and loop tape fastenings. There is a moveable partition for the main area which can be adapted to create up to three compartments for camera body/lens/flash, etc. I find this a bit awkward to position neatly, on the one I have this is a bit stiff and reluctant to shape, but having a camera and accessories inside helps to hold it in place. This is a fairly soft camera bag. It's well padded on all sides, but the more sturdy structuring around the camera comes from the EPE partition. I have a similar style Lumix bag - this K&F Concept one is a bit larger and offers more storage for accessories without becoming cumbersome, but doesn't have such structured sides or feel quite as sturdy. I had thought to switch bags and start using this slightly bigger one, but I like both for different reasons

When unpacking, in its 33x22x7cm cardboard box, it seems very small! We immediately see that the quality is there and that it is well designed: exterior zippered pockets and interior Velcro, adjustable internal separation, everything is there. But I was thinking of housing my SLR and its big professional zoom + its cobra flash there, while hanging my carbon tripod there with its ball head... a bet paid off as we see in the photos! The goal is well achieved: everything fits, and the strap remains comfortable on the shoulder...Convinced!

Very practical little bag when you don't want to take your backpack, it is large enough to accommodate my A7IV and a small Kodak without forcing the closure, the quality is excellent, plenty of storage space. very wide strap, and pleasant to wear without being annoying Good product to go light!

Good: Attractive black and gray shell, better looking than the product listing's images suggest. Well made; quality stitching. Clever straps on the underside for a *very* compact tripod - don't even think about strapping on a full-size one. Holds everything I need in a camera bag - barely, but that was my intent, light and compact. Bad: Needs padding at the ends. Also, my personal jury is still out on the semi-rigid insert. It certainly adds protection and offers a little storage flexibility, but if whatever you put in doesn't fit neatly into 1/3 or 2/3 of the bag, it's going to bounce around and/or dig deep into the padding. Plus, the divider takes up a significant amount of space that's at a premium in a compact bag. On balance, I suspect that a more traditional set of padded, velcroed dividers would work better here. I plan to upcycle some from my old bag and see which works best. Bottom line: The bag currently contains my Nikon D7500, 18-55 and 70-300mm lenses, wrist and shoulder straps, spare battery, charger, and SD card, and a few misc. filters and odds and ends. It couldn't hold much more, but again, that was the idea. I'm not entirely pleased with the camera body cushioning, but a little experimentation and extra padding from the old bag should fix that. I think it'll work. Five stars, but the lack of padding in the ends almost cost it that fifth.

This bag is great! Perfect size and very portable. Love the way it looks and feels like it’s made with high quality materials.
