I have just posted this product review to my YouTube channel.

The decision as to how you carry your camera gear is very much a personal preference - there is definitely no 'best' option. Some of you already know how much value I place on a small light compact system (I own both the A6600 cameras and the A7C full-frame compact) to compliment my full-frame primary camera (the A1 camera has replaced my A9II and A7RIV cameras). Over recent years I have progressively moved to using lighter messenger bags and the small (and inexpensive) Think Tank Mirrorless Mover 30i is featured in the A7C eBook to demonstrate how to move a light system about.

I have been hoping to improve on my Peak Design, Brixton Ona, Think Tank Speed Racer and Think Tank Mirrorless Mover 30i messenger bags I have been using over the last few years. I think I have found a way forward with these Pilot bags and I outline this in the product review.

I don't intend this to be an advertisement for these Pilot bags by posting this video here, but more as a way of raising a discussion surrounding the choice of bags so that others may learn from collective experience.

PILOT 7L & 10L Premium Quality Messenger Bags for Photographers by Wotancraft

In this video tutorial Mark discusses why he has chosen to travel light and work with small messenger bags rather than backpacks. He moves from the messenger bags he has used previously to discuss how his two new Pilot bags from Wotancraft will now be used to meet his travel requirements. Mark values the rugged build quality, the fact that Cordura fabric is waterproof and the ability to customise additional storage capabilities both inside and outside of the bag.
