Looking to hold a Zx-5n w/ AA grip and 28-70/28-135. Plus either 50mm or 20-35 or 75-300 (not all at the same time). Room for flash (optional) and film (not optional) would be nice, too. I'm looking at 3 Domke options:
1. The Domke F-5XB has been likened somewhat to a woman's purse, which would be helpful as I could throw in my wallet, keys, cell phone w/o carrying an actual purse. But is the bag big enough for the amount of gear I want to carry? Hard to find a place here in town where I can actually try this bag out, so am appealing to the list to see if any one has used this bag in the past. 2. Domke F-6 (The Little Bit Smaller Bag): just wanted to throw this one out there for opinions. It seems like it held closed by two hook/clasp things. How secure is it? 3. The Domke Roo 20 is a waistpack. Again, looking to hold the same outfit. Good thing about this it that I'd be hands-free of other stuff while I hold the camera, plus wearable while also using a backpack. The bag would be for everyday types of running around in town. Part of the caveat would be that I also need to carry around a backpack for school and don't feel comfortable just tossing my gear in the backpack, even if the camera's in a neoprene case. Already have a Lowepro S&F Rover Lite backpack which is great for hiking around & comfy enough, but isn't large enought to hold my school gear, unfortunately. And also have a Lowepro S&F 300 which holds the entire kit & caboodle should I need it all (see above for inventory). I am satisfied w/ the S&F 300 and am wondering whether the Domke F-6 would be of similar capacity and thus an overlapping investment. So, I throw it out for you folks, especially the PDML ladies, to comment. How to carry my camera gear securely and still carry the necessities of life?
