Back into photography after a near twenty-year hiatus. When I bought my camera at Best Buy, much in the same way when I buy a cellphone, I could not leave the store without some sort of bag for my camera gear. I got a decent enough bag, but the problem was I could carry all my lenses with me at the same time. Every time you take a shot, you're thinking to yourself, maybe I should be using this lens or that lens. The Sling 9L is exactly what I was looking for. It's got room for my camera, two extra lenses and ample room to fit everything that would otherwise be in my pockets. The quality of the craftsmanship reminded me of a new piece of Carhartt clothing, stiff, but ready for action. It has quality to it that you can feel when you touch it. It makes you feel confident. The grab handles on this thing are amazing, and when I watched the video I thought "oh that's cool, but I probably wont use those" but I use them all the time. The level of cushion between sections of the bag provide lots of peace of mind. You feel safe when you zip the bag up and swing back around to your back. I've only had 'er about a a week and half but I can tell that this is going to be a nice long relationship. The only decision now is wether or not to get the 21L or 31L for those times when I'm roadtripping across America and need to bring everything with me. The passion behind this team is very apparent. I can make another purchase from Wandrd and know with certainty that quality is on the other end.
