Been looking to replace my PD 3L just to try something new and honestly haven't found a better bag for my needs. The huge single pouch is great for an EDC, especially if you use small pouches to organize. Access is just so much easier and simpler. The biggest thing for me though is that most EDC bags can't hold an iPad mini which has become an essential travel EDC item for me and most EDC bags aren't tall enough in the 3L range.....the PD 3L fits it just perfectly. My least favorite part of the PD Is the strap. The locking mechanism to hold it in place is bad...needs improvement.
Hey Bro, Here is some constructive critique. Lighting wise - I could not see anything inside the Wandrd main compartment. It was just black. You did not wear the bags for us to see how they look when someone wears them. You did not show how you fill them up and use them. You have enthusiasm and good camera presence. I would hate to see you waste them with non-useful videos. If you remake the video or make a second version I will watch it! Wish you success in the future!
@@AndyTran I wrote this with good intentions! I hope you took it like that. I would not waste my time for creators I don't like. And I am typing this comment in part for the algorithm :) Hope you get more views!
@@boyantrifonov hey! No I can tell by what you explained that it wasn't any hate or trolling. You really wanted to know those things. I got you. Thank you!
I would pick the Wandrd. I cycle and hike a lot, and I’ve owned that exact PD 3L and the lack of the stabilizer strap makes a huge difference. I’ve had a lot of Peak Design products and they’ve all had some sort of fatal flaw. I’ve had the zipper fail catastrophically on a PD Sling 5L and it was awful. A lifetime warranty isn’t any good when I’m out in the field. I do think the PD looks better though.
Thanks for the comparison. I have a PD 6L and am looking for a smaller one to use with my Canon M6. I like the larger main compartment on PD 6L bag, but already dislike the 6L PD bag due to the outer zippered pocket (mostly useless), and the fact that PD rounded the zipper on the 6L bag so putting an iPad Pro 11 in is next to impossible - all due to the rounded zipper. I initially liked the look of the wandrd but two things turn me off. (1) The narrow opening to the main compartment, and (2) really hate black interiors - very hard to find things, esp. when much camera gear is already black. And often you’re using the bag in a low light situation as well. Will keep looking as I will give both of these bags a miss.
@@AndyTran Yeah, it seems like Wandrd prioritized more organization over space. I had to go with the PD 3L, but I love that I can fit my Sony A7IV kit in there.
Thank you, very good video. To go further, would you have an idea of the resistance to heavy rain and shocks? For info, I'm using a PD3L with a Sony RX10IV + batteries + charger, which is pretty tight.
I've been looking for a new sling to replace my original Peak Design 3L, and this is a really helpful review. Are you still shooting with the Leica Q2? If so, which of these slings fits the Q2 best while still being functional? Thanks.
I opted for Peak Design because its design is unisex and much more aesthetic. The Wandrd is not feminine. Moreover, I think it’s a shame that purely feminine photo bags never have reasonable prices. Sometimes we want to carry our camera with us in the city or at a party but not necessarily a tourist or hiking bag...😂
Getting the PD 3L because theres no way in hell my a7III + 24-70mm GMII would fit in the Wandrd sling. I might also be able to fit my 50mm 1.4f in there too.

Thank you for the criticism. I always want to hear what the viewers are seeing. Definitely keep this in mind for future videos. Thank you again

I have both. But I use the Wandrd more then my Peak Design.
Same here

It looks a lot larger
Why didn't you load the two bags up to compare what's possible? I still have no idea whether they can both fit a similar setup or not.
I can set that up. Going to do a video on each what are you planning to load them with?
@@AndyTran can the wandr 3l fit an x-t5 with 18-55 mm kit lens?
That’s actually the main question I have
Which one is truly a 3L?
But why peak design has more room for bigger camera like A7 series with bigger lens? I mean they are 3L right..

Thanks for watching. I appreciate it
They’re both marketed as 3L, but the Wandrd feels much smaller.
It really does. I think it just has more compartments that's why
@@AndyTran Yeah, it seems like Wandrd prioritized more organization over space. I had to go with the PD 3L, but I love that I can fit my Sony A7IV kit in there.
Totally. I feel the Wandrd is more restricted in terms of use-cases.
@@ethanaderemi There are more pockets, but at the expense of the main compartment capacity.
The wandrd looks more streamlined for street photography
Yeah it does. I like that it's dark too
@@AndyTran I was also looking at a the chrome sling cadet. Usually around a hundred however the olive green one was on sale in the fifties
The sling kadet is big enough to hold my mx1 film camera with lens attached and plenty of other things too.
Which one fits your x-pro3 best? 🙏
I like my WANDRD bag more
Which one would you guys pick?
my only question is would the wandrd fit an xpro 3 with something like the 56mm on it? i love the design of the wandrd but i dont wanna buy the 6l
Hate bags that are all black in the interior. Makes it harder to find things when there is subpar lighting.
Would the wandrd 3l be able to fit like a Sony A7iv with zoom lens?
I don't think it'll fit a zoom lens. Zoom lens are pretty big. You might want to get a bigger size. Try the 6L or even 9 L
No shot. I just got a 6L Wandrd today and it doesn't even fit a Canon R6MKII and RF24-70. The 6L.
Thank you, very good video. To go further, would you have an idea of the resistance to heavy rain and shocks? For info, I'm using a PD3L with a Sony RX10IV + batteries + charger, which is pretty tight.

They both would fit the leica Q perfectly fine, but I think for safety the peak design will fit better.
@@AndyTran Thanks for the perspective. What do you mean by "for safety"?
I have both in different sizes. I always use Wandrd
Great video! What size peak are you using?
Thanks! 3L
I opted for Peak Design because its design is unisex and much more aesthetic. The Wandrd is not feminine. Moreover, I think it’s a shame that purely feminine photo bags never have reasonable prices.

I agree. Good review.

Bad idea to compare bag 2 times bigger with another bag is SPACE inside parameter))
they're both 3L bags...
