The Billingham Hadley Shoulder Bag, Small (Sage, with Tan Leather Trim) is a FiberNyte bag with a photo insert included. The bag can double as a soft briefcase by removing the insert. Constructed of waterproof canvas with high-density closed-cell foam throughout, it has a thin profile and a compressible nature to let the weight always stay close to your torso. There are two gusseted front pockets that expand and close with quick-acting press studs. Insides are divided, and you can rearrange them as needed, or you can remove the padding to make the Hadley a conventional bag.

        Comments about Billingham Hadley Shoulder Bag Small:

        Billingham is the best when looking for quality,efficiency,protection,and good looks. I have carried my Lieca camera and lenses in the larger bag to Africa twice with no issues. I wanted a smaller tote for an upcoming trip and ordered the smaller version of the same bag,and it works equally as well. I have not found another manufacturer of camera totes that does it better than Billingham!

          I gave up the DSLR scene and went back to Leica and this bag is perfect for whatever combination of Leica gear I want to carry. Two M bodies along with lenses or a Digilux 2 and an X1. Anything fits fine with some room to spare for the phone or other small things that need to come along. Plus the build and looks are typical Billingham....top shelf all the way!!!

            As with all Billingham products, this bag is beautifully made, with a casually classy appearance - does not scream "photo gear". The size is perfect for my Pentax K-5, a set of 4 primes, a flash, and still space for a wallet and small extras in the two outside pockets. The size is perfect for a day out with compact gear. Highly recommended.

            This bag is used as an adjunct to my larger 225, when I do not have to lug all my gear. This is the 'bag on the go'. The partitioning options are endless (dividers come with bag) and I am able to fit my Olympus e-5 with an attached zoom, teleconverter and then a longer zoom in a compartment/or large flash gun. Front pockets hold CF/SD cards, spare batteries, cell phone etc...Have used when pouring outside and the gear was well protected.

              It fits my D7000, and four lenses snugly. I just wish it had a handle on top. Also, one of the snaps is off centered about half an inch so the pocket pleats aren't uniform.

                  it may say small however I believe it is the perfect size. By far the best made bag I have. The quick release leather holes work perfectly even when I am in dark situations without looking gear is easily accessible. fits m7, m8, 35mm 1.4, 50mm 1.1 plus Canon G11.
                  travel anywhere bag for your rangefinder gear set up.
                  Big factor is the styling of this bag is just top notch.

                      I am holding the Leica M9, 50mm lux, 28mm elm, 75mm cron, 135mm 3.4. So far a good combination for me. May be able to squeeze one more lens in, but it is perfect for the above.

                              This bag is used as an adjunct to my larger 225, when I do not have to lug all my gear. This is the 'bag on the go'. The partitioning options are endless (dividers come with bag) and I am able to fit my Olympus e-5 with an attached zoom, teleconverter and then a longer zoom in a compartment/or large flash gun. Front pockets hold CF/SD cards, spare batteries, cell phone etc...Have used when pouring outside and the gear was well protected.

                                It fits my D7000, and four lenses snugly. I just wish it had a handle on top. Also, one of the snaps is off centered about half an inch so the pocket pleats aren't uniform.

                                    it may say small however I believe it is the perfect size. By far the best made bag I have. The quick release leather holes work perfectly even when I am in dark situations without looking gear is easily accessible. fits m7, m8, 35mm 1.4, 50mm 1.1 plus Canon G11.
                                    travel anywhere bag for your rangefinder gear set up.
                                    Big factor is the styling of this bag is just top notch.

                                        I am holding the Leica M9, 50mm lux, 28mm elm, 75mm cron, 135mm 3.4. So far a good combination for me. May be able to squeeze one more lens in, but it is perfect for the above.
