Comments about Porta Brace HIP-3 Hip Pack for Mini DV Camcorders and Accessories (Large, Signature Blue):
I use it to hold my Leica M6, meter, film, flash, kindle, phone, wallet, pen, note book, keys and snack.
I also use it for my 4x5 tech field camera. It has room for 4x5 film holders, 4x5 Fuji instant back and boxes of film and other bits.
Prefer it to a small messenger style bag. I like the firm sides and the bit of protection it provides.
Looks sort of industrial but Billingham doesn't make a fanny pack. I'm 5'10" and 160lbs and it isn't too big on me.
Little waist pockets are sort of useless for me but could keep a spare bill or two.
