K&F Concept Camera Sling Bag Small Crossbody Camera Case DSLR/SLR/Cute Compact Shoulder Photography Bags for Photographers - Sling Bag5L Urban Wander 05 (Black)
SKU: KF13.179
Small compact bag, with good mechanical insulation of the right density and resistance, and made with great care.
The fabric is pleasant and sturdy, it looks like it can withstand any abuse. The seams are always at least double, all the zippers are oversized and with metal sliders with the addition of a strap for grip. The strap is well sized, the hooks sturdy ... no weak points, really.
Aesthetically the bag is very nice, the writing is elegant and you can see at first glance that it is well made.
From the point of view of size it obviously depends on what machine you have; to give you a reference, the a7RIII fits with the 16-35/4 and the 24-105, but practically the complete micro 4/3 kit fits: om5 II, 12-40, 9-18, 45-150 and the 17 and the 45. I probably would have liked a slightly larger front pocket, but in any case a Sony battery and a bunch of Olympus batteries with their chargers fit, so it's ok.
I had the idea of using it occasionally, but instead I'm preferring it often precisely because of its compact size and excellent mechanical insulation; probably if I didn't already have a bag capable of carrying the entire kit I would start with that, but in the end I'm using this one more. The bag is holding up well to the test of time: the shapes have softened slightly, but the insulation has remained rigid and in its place and the bag hasn't lost its shape or been ruined at all.
The price also seems more than ok considering the quality. Recommended.

A really well made object, this camera bag is perhaps not suitable for busy days where you have to have many lenses with you, but for days when you have to go light it can be really very comfortable, in the end a Sony Aplha and a medium-sized lens fit easily in my case, of course if I had to bring a large lens to zoom, I would definitely have to remove a partition and I would not have room for the camera, but I have to say that overall I liked it quite a bit, the materials are good, with soft internal cushions and certainly suitable for preventing your equipment from getting damaged, I also like the design with this external pocket to put smaller objects such as a smartphone or wallet or sunglasses.
There are also some smaller pockets above the main pocket to put perhaps smaller equipment such as cables or batteries or sd, I can't really tell you about the waterproof part, I haven't had the opportunity to wet it let's say, as for the zippers they seem resistant and it seems to me that they are waterproof at first glance.
Overall it is a product that I consider excellent

The camera bag from K&F Concept includes an adjustable strap. The bag is black on the outside and grey on the inside.
The bag is suitable for a medium to large camera. With a camera that is not too large you can also carry an additional lens. For a large camera you have to remove the internal division. On the outside there are three small compartments to store photographic accessories such as filters, memory cards or spare batteries. This way the bag has a place for most of what I need for a camera trip.
The fabric of the bag is specified as waterproof. I would say that a little rain does not do anything but looking at the zippers you can see that the bag is not waterproof. However, this is true for most camera bags. To make it completely waterproof you would need an additional cover. The zippers work well. The bag is padded to protect the camera. The bag is quite light.
I noticed two things that could be improved. The strap does not have shoulder padding which is comfortable and necessary when you have a heavy camera or have to carry the bag for a few hours. The strap hooks are made of plastic instead of metal. I do not know how long plastic lasts but metal would definitely be more durable. The quality-price ratio of the bag seems adequate to me.

This case will accommodate 1 camera + 1 or 2 lenses. The straps is descent but does not have the padding. The divider is set by strong velcro and can be moved either way.
It's compact bag, good for traveling.
Zips are good quality. Handle is proper. Good price at 25£. I would buy again and I would recommend

The bag is just the right size, not too bulky yet spacious enough to fit my camera, charger, and extra batteries comfortably.
The padding inside the bag gives me peace of mind that my camera equipment is well-protected. The shoulder strap clips on easily.
Its professional look make it a stylish choice that matches well with any outfit.

This is a great padded bag, ideal for carrying a camera with a short lens and an additional longer telephoto lens. Like any bag, you can put in an adapter and filters, as well as batteries and cables.
The quality is exceptional. The zippers are YKK, from the famous Japanese manufacturer Yoshida, and the pulls come with nylon cord extensions with a plastic head for quick operation: you never know when you're going to need to take out the camera "in a hurry."
It has an interior separator that is fixed with a velcro on the inside or removed completely, depending on the size of your lens.
I really liked it, I highly recommend it. It is very well finished, even the K&F Concept screen printing in shiny silver. It costs 40 euros, which is normal for this type of case.
I give it 5 stars.

...and it's a real plus-point in my opinion.
There were choices of colours when I looked at the K&F Concept camera bag and normally, for myself, I would opt for a dark colour. However I basically have more than enough camera bags already. With the advent of smartphones nowadays all having good camera functions my wife has taken a bigger interest in photography than she has in previous years. She often stuffs a handbag or small backpack with "photo extras" such as small LED lights, tripods, a DJI Pocket video camera, extra power/batteries and sometimes even takes my compact Sony camera out with her. I saw the pink version of the K&F Concept bag and it was an obvious choice for my wife as she likes pink and pastel shades generally.
The bag arrives simply packaged in a polythene bag. I was impressed that without any foam or 'void-packing' the case had retained its squarish shape (quite often we have purchased bags that look great online but when the arrive they are a creased and crumpled rather sad sight). This retained form was a sign that the build of the bag was very good... and it definitely is. The pale pastel pink looked great too with a woven material.
The bag could have multiple uses as it looks so smart, and I daresay it will filled with a variety of content. As a camera bag though, it meets the brief very well as a small-to-medium container for photographic bits & bobs. There's the main compartment, well padded and with a moveable divider (which uses hook & loop to enable re-positioning to fit your gear perfectly). A full width, two-pull zipper allows for the entire top of the bag to be fully opened, allowing great and easy internal access. In the 'lid' of the case there are two pockets for smaller flatter items. On the outside of the bag there's a generous front zipped pocket. A sturdy but lightweight strap can be clipped on to the D-rings and there's sufficient adjustment for the bag to be worn 'crossbody style' or on a shoulder.
I started stuffing the bag with a variety of photgraphic equipment and accessories - and was impressed with the surprisingly capacious interior. When my wife uses it I reckon she will have a 'mixed bag' (pardon the pun) of contents as the bag will probably have to serve two puposes: a camera bag and a general handbag.
I mentioned in my review title that this bag has "an unusual feature" - actually, as far as my other camera bags are concerned, it's a unique feature. I have owned and still own more camera bags than I will probably ever require. Some of my camera bags have cost a small fortune (several from a particularly well known luxury modern hi-spec global brand... with their bags costing up to £300 etc.) and I have also got some much cheaper ones too. Now I am not saying that this K&F Concept bag is a competitor for bags that cost several hundreds of pounds, but, nevertheless, it has something that none of my others, whatever their cost, have. What is it?...
...A TOP OPENING LID THAT OPENS AWAY FROM THE BODY:
That's it. I hadn't even noticed at first but when my wife wore the bag we noticed that when the bag was worn the correct way around, the lid-flap unzipped from the rear and allowed the lid-flap to open outwards. Now I am not saying this is the only bag in the world that has this feature but I can honestly say that in my experience of probably in excess of 30 camera bags - not a single one of them has had that arrangement. It's an arrangement that is superbly practical. It means that when you open the bag the flap is 'away from you', which not only gives better visual access but also extra protection from odd bits of equipment accidentally falling out of the bag. Also it means that you are not peering over the bag lid to see everything contained within, and also you have the best possible safe access for handling and retrieving the contents. It's a simple but actually quite brilliant design feature... why I haven't seen it before is a bit of a mystery to me. Not only that, but the manufacturer has angled the zip access slightly to give even more ease of access. I take my photographer's hat off to K&F Concept.... for this, erm, concept! Top marks for design and excellently implemented.
So, summing up. This isn't the very cheapest camera bag of these dimensions you may find, but it certainly has tons of plus features and is worth every penny of its price tag:
PROS:
1) Compact and lightweight
2) Adjustable internal storage
3) Attractive and practical material
4) Double-pull zipper on main compartment
5) Generous shoulder strap adjustment
6) Good protective padding
7) Even looks good as a practical general handbag
.... and of course:
8) That genius outward-opening top flap.
CONS:
...can't think of any for a functional camera bag at this price
Needless to say my wife is delighted with the K&T Concept bag... and (just maybe) I am wishing I had ordered the black one for me!!!! Your photo gear deserves a lovely bag like this, 5 Stars all day I reckon.

I'll be the first to admit that despite having a relatively nice DSLR camera, to this day I didn't have a proper case/carrying bag for it so finally decided to bite the bullet.
This carrying case by K&F is great - it has quite a lot of padding so it will protect your camera from accidental bumps (though this is not a hard case so don't expect much protection from bigger falls), has multiple compartments/pockets which you can use for filters, cables etc and a rather large main compartment that can be split into two with a movable velcro mid piece.
The bag also comes with a strap so you don't always have to have the bag in your hands.
Due to the movable mid piece I could make my camera fit in snuggly and I had plenty of space left for my extras.
The bag in general seems to be well made with no loose threads or other visible manufacturing defects.
Given the relatively low price of £26, given the quality I think this is a very good carrying case and would absolutely recommend it!
