[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I like a Domke 5X-B. It's a small shoulder bag with a belt option. It holds my M6 with a mounted lens, an extra lens and a very small inexpensive electronic flash, and a couple of rolls of film plus batteries. The two lenses are a 35mm ASPH cron and a 50mm Summilux.
