He's a little unclear on weights and how to use a scale
First thing he says is his bag weights 2.2 oz. national geographic no longer
made.
And the Domke weights 2.4 oz.

Well I was confused so I  took out a similar Domke bag I had and it was 2
pounds 2 ounces.

So that's 34 oz. with 16 oz in a pound. 34 vs. 36 oz on just the bag?  the
weight difference would be like a very small fraction. What happens when you
put a lens in it?
I do think if your bag is heavy before you even put anything in it there is
less sense in that. But a stuffed bag requires a well built bag. As we area
talking about several pounds which need to be supported.

At this point I like the Domke slings. But am looking at the Kata.
I am a bag a holic. Always looking for the right bag and a better bag.
