Finding The Perfect Budget Shoulder Bag For Micro Four Thirds

Lowepro Event Messenger 100

Hey guys!   I wanted to share this VLOG post I made over at DiscoverMirrorless a few weeks ago after I had received my new Panasonic Lumix G5.   The G5 has been great and I’ve been getting to know it a lot better this month, but back when it first came in I was faced with quiet the dilemma.  I didn’t have a camera bag which was small enough to fit it, yet large enough to hold the G5 and several lenses.  With my Panasonic Lumix GF3 I had been using a LowePro Edit 110 but it was definitely not big enough for the G5… PERIOD!

Hop on over to my Discover Mirrorless VLOG and check out the full story and video!

      Hi Matt I actually had the Nova on my list of ones to check out, but there were a few things that stuck out to me. Was more so looking at the Nova 140 than the 160. I have a larger version the older Nova 4 which has served me great for many years, but it really does dwarf the Micro Four Thirds gear hehe. (I could fit two gripped DSLRs and about 5 lenses and flash between them.

        Hi, new here. I use an OM-D, Olympus 14-42mm, Panasonic 100-300mm, my absolute fav wildlife lens of all time, including large bugs and butterflies, plus flowers, and most nature shots, and an Olympus 60mm f2.8 macro, which I’m learning. I have an older Oly fl36 flash, works great, and a cheap led ring light/flash, which is excellent. I carry all of this with a bit of room to spare in a CaseLogic sling bag, far more comfortable than a Nova.
        Cheers,
        Denny
