Product Description

This elegant, practical bag comfortably accommodates a complete Leica M photojournalism outfit. Made by noted bag specialist Billingham, this watertight cotton combination bag, can accommodate two Leica M bodies with two lenses, or one body with three lenses. The camera fits in easily even with a LEICA motor M or Leicavit M attached, and the length of the lenses poses no problems either. A fully padded lining, as well as two removable padded inner sections provide optimum protection for the equipment and allow maximum flexibility of the useable space. A zippered compartment offers space for a LEICA SF 24D flash, film and other accessories.

This review is from: Leica 14854 Billingham Combination Bag for Leica M Series System (Black) (Electronics)

It is not obvious in the photo but there is a shoulder strap for this bag. It is manufactured for Leica and comes in a Leica box. It is expensive but it is well made and it's always better to spend more on a well made product than save money on a product that is not well made, because in the end you'll spend more buying again. This bag will not need to be replaced. This bag will last you you life and maybe even one of your kids lives too. It's simple, sturdy, and smart looking. It could double as a bag for doing tasks other than photography too which is a plus if you need to use it in a pinch. It holds one body and 2 lenses nicely. I have even gotten a few batteries and my charger in here too. Is has a top foam flap to cover the rear LCD screen when facing up. Shoulder pad is padded and is comfortable. It is just a bag but being well made, functional, not too big and not too small and with great leather materials all add up to make this an artists bag, not just some canvas junk from Best Buy. If I ever need a second bag, I'll be getting another one of these. Also, for me, black is best. It does not get dirty easy and goes with just about any outfit and event. Black also tends to not stand out either. I am always trying to be discrete. If Indiana Jones carried a Leica, believe me, he'd have this bag too.
