The reviewer mistook the rear luggage pass-through for a pocket, causing an iPhone to fall because the panel remains open at both ends. The accessory compartment includes two elasticated pockets, which the reviewer used for storing the wireless transmitter and receiver during recording. An elastic strap hooks across the bag, letting the reviewer leave it unzipped and open the interior quickly by unhooking it with one hand.
The single padded strap lets the reviewer carry the sling on the back or move it to the front for easier kit access. Bottom Molle straps let users attach accessories such as a mini-tripod, while additional Molle columns appear on the bag’s front.
Reported strengths
- The reviewer recommends the sling for mirrorless kits and mobile phone photography, citing compactness, water-resistance, storage options, adjustable panels, Molle straps, and one-hand closure.
- The main compartment uses removable Velcro dividers, allowing the reviewer to configure space for either a small DSLR or mirrorless camera.
- The accessory compartment includes two elasticated pockets, which the reviewer used for storing the wireless transmitter and receiver during recording.
Reported trade-offs
- When worn at the front, the default strap length placed the bag too near the reviewer’s face until they extended it.
- The reviewer mistook the rear luggage pass-through for a pocket, causing an iPhone to fall because the panel remains open at both ends.
- When fully open, the sling has a small gap near the zipper through which a small item such as an SD card could fall.
