Wotancraft asked me if I would like to test-drive their new Scout Messenger bag (announced today).
I am still more than happy with the Pilot 7L I have been using for nearly a year but was keen to check out the differences. This product review compares the new Scout with the Pilot 7L, as I expect most photographers who viewed my previous review will want to know how it differs from those bags.
Spoiler Alert - the increased height of this Scout means that it will accomodate the FE 100-400 GM lens.

If you feel compelled to purchase this bag, because one is never enough, please use this link: PURCHASE FROM WOTANCRAFT
Note > They have told me that shipping is fast and free to the USA.

I often split my gear across two smaller messenger bags rather than trying to carry everything in one large backpack, so I have let Wotancraft know that I intend to use one Pilot and one Scout moving forward.
