Yes I just noticed they even had one marketed as a camera bag and you just
gave us the url on the B&H site but was listed as "no longer" so it looks
like they're not doing that any more. But also looks like the bag they had
marketed as a camera bag was pretty much the same as their other bags. I
held a bunch of them in my hands and they looked like a perfect camera bag
for me. I just have to save up. I even looked last year at the camera bag
version at the Filson store on Great Jones street. It's perfect. Straps a
tad thin and its overall look is tiny bit more ostentatious than Billingham.
As in trying too hard to look expensive. As in making it back here on the
subway after a late movie less of a sure deal. If they made them in black it
would downkey them. ... call it the New York version. As anything not make
of black fabric in NY stands out just a bit too much.
