David does a damn fine job, I'd say. Great production, and kept on track throughout. Thanks!
🙂 Thank you Tom, I sincerely appreciate it! Not going to lie, this comment made my day!
Great channel and thx for the detailed review!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Great production quality David, and thanks for the review! :)
🙂 Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!
Thanks for the great video. You helped me a lot with the purchase decision.
I'm glad I could help! Thanks for watching 🙂
You should have a lot more subs. Very well presented and professional. Just grabbed the bag, thank you :)
Thank you so much, this comment made my day. I hope you enjoy the bag 🙂🙂
Just subbed because you made those standins of the ipad. Big ups for the extra effort!
Thank you so much - I really appreciate it 🙂
Good review, man. I just ordered this bag and am looking forward to using it!
Thank you Eric! I hope you enjoy the bag. I have been impressed with the quality. I actually took it hiking this weekend and twisted my ankle 😆. Needless to say, everything stayed secure.
Good review really helped my decision
Thank you 🙂
Damn good review and production quality for such a small channel. I'm not a camera guy, but I was looking for reviews on EDC bags. I think this one is exactly what I need.
This really made my day, thank you friend🙂! I am working on a review now of the Bellroy Venture sling which is comparable to this one however less suitable for cameras.
Thanks for the review. Maybe for next review show a bit more of the space inside, all of what you store in there to give a hint of the size of the bag.
Hey, thanks for the comment! I'll take care next time to add a bit more footage to show the interior storage 🙂.
great video, Im leaning towards buying one of those bags and your video definitely helped me, also gave a sub
Thank you so much!! I am glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! Would love a comparison to other slings. Like you mentioned maybe compare it to similar size Alpaka line up. Keep it up! :)
That's a great idea! I really do love Alpaka products. Actually, another video dropping today with one. Like you said, I should pick one up similar to this to compare. Maybe Wandrd as well? I keep hearing good things about them.
great review and love the presentation. i got the 3l last week and i'm considering getting the 6l just for a little bit more space for a flash. hope it doesn't get too heavy, my think tank retero 20 just checked is 2x the weight of the 6l
Thank you 🙂. Have you been enjoying the 3L? I've been considering it for my smaller Fujifilm X-T30.
i acutally loved it for my disney trip, it'll fit a xt-3 for sure, i had a canon r6 + 50mm lens and 16mm lens as a walk around. i wanted a 6l version so i can add a flash. used it for 8 days on my trip and it didn't hurt my shoulders at all@@david_does
Using this bag sinds the beginning, there is another small place where you can store extra like a remote, small sd cards holder, mini flash (om-1) where you put strap.
I can hold a lot of this in this bag for micro 4/3 (6 lenses + om-1) and a lot of extra things (filters or steps filters where other put an ipad) my best bag evere, second one the 5L sling I have also😀
Don't forget the lifetime warranty :) Love this bag for small shooting or as lens holder for big stuff.
Incredibly good point! Peak Design is always hitting it out of the park 😃
Informative video. My question is, will the A7 iv with a battery grip and Tamron 28-70 (both on the camera body) fit inside the sling? Thanks for doing the research!
Thank you 🙂 I believe the battery grip would be too much. When the camera is in the bag without a battery grip, it's pretty tight along the top and bottom of the camera. The extra length on the bottom would likely be too much.
Looking for the smallest sling bag that can carry my a7iii with the 35GM attached and the 70-200GM2 not attached. I'd like to keep the lens hood on the 70-200 but as it's huge I could leave it off if it's a deal breaker.
Will a 35-150mm fit attached on camera. Or a lens that's simpler in size.
Great content! Can I know where did David explained about the usage of the straps mentioned at 3m33s?
Great question! Check out 05:05 on the video. Basically they allow you to strap something to the bottom of the bag. Something like a small tripod or rolled up blanket works well.
@@david_does Thanks for pointing it out David. You're awesome!!
David, loved your review of the Sling 6L. Do you think the Canon Rebel t7 with Canon Lens that is 30-70 mm will fit (end to end 9")?
Thank you so much and so sorry for the delay. I think that with the end to end measurements of 9 inches it may be a bit too tight. You may want to check out the 10L version of this bag!
nice video!, quite high quality for only 289 subscribers,
i am wondering if you could fit, a mini 3 pro, the dji rc and an a7c with a tamron 28-78 lens.
Cheers!
Thank you so much 🙂! I think it would be quite a tight fit with all three. I suspect you could get your drone and the controller in however with the A7C setup it may be a bit much with the drone. The A7C + 28-78 lens should also fit just fine on it's own.
Thanks for the review.
Would an eos r with battery grip & 24-105 f4-7.1 fit?
I've found almost all full frame cameras with battery grips are too big. The camera is too wide
Thanka for the review. I would recommend increasing the audio volume. It is a bit quiet especially on a phone.
Very good advice 🙂 I will crank it up a notch this week!
Love this PD everyday sling bag. I would like to place Sony A7 IV with 24-105mm F4 and Sony ZV-E10 with 11mm F1.8. Do you think it will fit both? Thanks!
It may be a bit tight with the 24-105. You may want to check out the next size up!
Can I fit a Nikon Z6 with the 24-70 2.8 Z and a Flash ?
Will Sony a73 with 24-70 g master fit in this!
Hey David! Cool video. Just wanted to check if the 24-70mm + A7 iv will fit?
Hey, I think you will be in the clear!!
Awesome! Thanks! More power to you!
thank you for the details long time usage video - I also use this (and also 10 and 3 liter, depending on the circumstances ), but in one point I am a bit dissatisfied: the grey lining gets dirty very fast, especially during every day usage.. I am still not clear how I could clean it effectively, using the washing machine seems not to be an option according to pd... do you have any experience or idea for that?
You know that is a great point. I have not done too much research into cleaning that. I may have to send PD an email to see what they say. I guess you could wash it with a damp washcloth but it probably won't do too much.
Thanks for the video. I have a Sony a73 and I will probably be running an 85 1.8. I would like to also carry a 24 GM and potentially my 70-200 GM. Do you think this is possible ?
You'll probably want the 10L version to fit the 70200 GM
This is our go-to sling bag. The quality has held up really well over the last 3 years. It has gone through a lot, including lots of rain and has protected our cameras well.
Very nice! Also, fantastic channel. I've recently gone down the rabbit hole of Disney and Universal channels. New sub from me! 🙂
Great review! The front pocket looks small. Could it fit passport, wallet, keys, and a plane ticket or piece or paper? Thanks!
Thank you! Those items would fit well inside of there.
Thanks!
I thought I watched the whole video but didn’t see whether or not the iPad Air fit in this bag or not? Assuming without all the camera gear. Sometimes I like to grab my iPad and my journals and head out to write. Thanks in advance.
Hey! I think the iPad Air was the one I made a "short" on. I can certainly look to see if I can make a model to see if it will fit. Did you end up picking one up?
I live in a tropical climate where there are rains occasionally. Its a dealbreaker for me if i cant put an umbrella inside.
You actually may be able to use the bottom straps to attach an umbrella underneath. Sort of how they mount blankets to the bottom on the website. It would have to be a collapsible umbrella rather than a golf though.
Hi David, do u think the bag will fit my Canon R5 (with 24-105 f4L lens attached) + Rf 100-400 lens + canon 430 flash? Thx so much.
Hey! So I think the R5 plus the 24-105 will be a good fit. However I think 10-400 may be to tight of a squeeze. You can probably get the flash in the bag if you detach it from the camera. I suspect you may want to take a look at the slightly larger (10L) version.
I’m certain I know the answer to this already: would an A74 fit with the Tamron 50-400 attached (again I’m nearly certain it wont) BUT do you or any of your viewers know if could both that lens and the body fit if broken down? TIA
Hey! I suspect you are correct. Based on the dimensions I don't think it will work. As of now, I don't have any viewers reporting experience with this setup unfortunately. I wish I could be more help!
Hi David. Wondering if a MacBook Air M1 would fit the 6l? Everything I’ve read says it won’t. But I’d be willing to put up with a bit of stuffing it in, if the zips could close up. The 10l is an option but it’s quite a bit bigger
Great question! Tomorrow I'll see if I can test that out for you 🙂
@@david_does that’d be great if you could check and let me know! I hope to carry my laptop, plus a Fuji XE4 with the 27 around.
I took a look and the 6L is about two inches two small at the bottom. Essentially, the base of the bag "funnels" down to a point. Because the other dimensions of the Air M1, it would have to be about two to three inches wider at the base. I bet the 10L option would be a better fit as the 6L is not that far off. But like you said, that is quite a bigger bag.
@@david_does thanks so much for checking! As a side, reckon a MacBook Air would fit in the main compartment (not just the tablet sleeve)?
Would an RF70-200 f2.8 fit?
i want to buy this bag with sony a7r5 with 24-70 attached but i want to put in the bag with the lens underneath the camera, can i do that? not horizontally but vertically, and 135mm and 50 1.2 on the side of this combo
Hey! For the 6L version (like I have) I think that will be too tight. If you mean having that lens attached to the body, with the lens pointing down. I wish that would fit as it would make taking it out and putting it away quickly easier.
The 6l is still awesome. It’s the 10l I dislike. The 10l doesn’t open as well restricting access somewhat. Why the gussets on the 6l were not used on the 10l I really don’t know. I wish I had a 6l design as a 10l
That is good to know! I was actually just at a camera store that had all of them and failed to really inspect the 10L now I wish I would have.
Do you know if a canon 5d mk IV with a 24-70 will fit?
Hey Tony! Great question. So assuming you orient it similarly to mine (Video @3:25). It should fit.
My only concern - The Canon 5D MK IV is a bit wider in that orientation. So if you have something like a stiff iPad in the tablet spot it may make it very tight or hard to get in and out.
Can the 6L fit
Sony a7iv + 24-70/2.8,
Sigma 85/1.4,
Sigma 35/1.4
Thank you. subd.
Thank you :). Sorry for the delay. These should fit individually with camera. If you want to carry multiple lenses at a time you may consider the larger version!
Hi I have the Nikon coolpix p950, should i buy the 3L or the 6L?
I think the 6L would be a safer bet.
I’ve had the 6L and 10l peak design sling but I did find it a bit boxy and didn’t conform to the body due to its rigid design which I suppose is a good thing as it’ll protect your gear better but, having took it on holiday with my Nikon Z6ii and 24-70 f4 (so a small lens) and maybe a water bottle etc, it was really straining on my shoulder / neck .. the strap is just not sufficient imo! I’ve sold both and gone for the Bellroy 10l camera sling and it’s fantastic, well padded and it conforms round your body so it doesn’t move about as you walk .. it doesn’t hold as much as the PD bag as it’s not as deep but it’s very comfy! I now use it solely for my Nikon Z6ii and 24-70 2.8 lens and a couple of filters
Hey - great recommendation! I will have to check in on that Bellroy 10L camera sling. I know for a fact they make a very, very high quality product!
And ya never showed if the cardboard iPad would fit 🤷♂️ 😂
iPad fits! You just won't be able to also fit a larger camera inside with it.
Why wouldn't it be worth it in 2023? Is it no longer a bag in 2023? Does it shrink over time and not continue to hold 6L in 2023?
Definitely worth it in 2023 😉
There could be newer and better bags
