Digital camera reviews of Tamrac 5766 Velocity 6x Compact Sling Pack (Black)
Digital camera Review: Great Travel Bag!
Summary: 4 Stars
This bag has worked out great so far! Its the perfect size to bring everywhere and still have all the accessories/lenses I need. Only negative is the rounded bottom so it ends up laying on the ground instead of standing upright.Digital camera Review: Great bag but Strap is TOO SHORT!
Summary: 1 Stars
I wanted this bag for a trip to WDW. I researched bags and finally settled on this one. Sadly, the strap is way too short! I'm 5'10" and a woman with a large bust, and it sits under my armpit with the strap completely loosened. It's so frustrating and sadly going back. :(Digital camera Review: Great bag for everyday shooting.
Summary: 5 Stars
This bag is great because it's small and yet can still carry everything I would ever need to go shooting. Unlike most shooters I like fixed focal length lenses and I very rarely use zoom lenses (but I carry one just in case). I also never understood people who want to carry every piece of camera gear they own around with them at all times! Lol! So I like this bag.
I have a Nikon d60 with a Nikon 35mm 1.8 AF-S lens with reversed lens hood in the center, an 18-135mm AF-S zoom in one side compartment and a Nikon 50mm 1.4 in the other. My charger fits in the front zippered compartment along with a spare battery, memory cards, lens pen, etc. It is a tight fit and the 18-135 and 50mm cannot fit with the lens hoods reversed. So for a while I didn't bother with them.
Eventually, I purchased the Tamrac MAS series medium lens case Tamrac Modular Accessory System Model MX5375 Lens Case - Medium - Case ( for lens ) - blackthat attaches to the side of the bag and moved the zoom and lens hood into that. Now I have room for everything I need in a bag that will fit into my laptop backpack so I can carry it on the plane.
Because this bag is small, I carry it everywhere. I just grab it before I walk out the door. Once I strap it on it is very comfortable and hugs close to my body. It also doesn't scream," I have an expensive camera with me!". As a matter of fact it can look like a messenger bag or be hidden from the front completely by tightening the strap.
Digital camera Review: Great bag, enough room
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased this bag and wanted to clear up a little confusion. Before I purchased the bag I read some reviews on Amazon, and some reviews said the bag was too small for a DSLR like the Canon 550D (Rebel T2i), which I also purchased on Amazon. The Canon 550D is the largest camera I want to carry around, and I wanted the absolute smallest, most convenient bag I could find. But the reviews were unclear as to whether the bag was big enough for this camera with the kit 18-55mm lens attached. I can tell you now, without a doubt, that the Canon 550D, WITH STRAP attached, and with the 18-55mm kit lens, fits in this bag, a bit snugly, but fits fine. What I can't tell you is whether the same camera with a bit longer lens would fit, such as an 18-85 (which would be the next lens I purchase). Also, quite a surprise to me, my 220EX Canon Speedlight fits in one of the spaces alongside the lens. The bag is very convenient and easy to use and operates as advertised, easy to swing around and open.Digital camera Review: Great camera bag
Summary: 5 Stars
Purchased this on recommendation from my brother in law. Fits a canon 60D with 18-200 mm lens attached. It is a little tight but will likely loosen up a little bit to fit better. Carries the charger, 2 spare batteries, SD cards, and a a small pocket size camera or external flash. Well constructed and comfortable to wear. Opens towards you so it is easy to get to the camera quickly. would definitely recommend.
