The Billingham Hadley Pro Shoulder Bag (Black with Black Leather Trim) is a waterproof canvas bag with a photo insert included. The bag can double as a business case or a slightly posh beach bag. The Hadley Pro will accommodate A4 files and a small laptop computer. Constructed of waterproofed canvas with high density closed cell foam throughout, they have 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 can be rearranged as needed, or remove the padding to make the Hadley a conventional bag.

It's light, very well made, looks great and is the perfect size. Just right for an everyday bag, and to fill it with gear to go out shooting.

Comments about Billingham Hadley Pro Shoulder Bag (Black with Black Leather Trim):
Same bag that Kai uses from digitalRev. This bag looks small but it fits the same, if not more, than the ThinkTank Retrospective 10! I immediately returned my Ret10 bag after purchasing this. It looks so much nicer, high quality, and feels lighter/more comfortable. It is almost 2x the price, but well worth it!

Comments about Billingham Hadley Pro Shoulder Bag (Black with Black Leather Trim):
Use it as it was intended as a camera bag, or take out the padding and it works as an everyday bag as well. I also use it to carry my laptop around at times. Bit expensive, but the solid construction justifies the price.

Comments about Billingham Hadley Pro Shoulder Bag (Black with Black Leather Trim):
I needed a lightweight bag to carry around on vacations and when i'm out taking pictures around San Francisco and I researched every kind of bag out there. I was having a lot trouble justifying paying 240$ for a camera bag but i decided to take the plunge and oh man am I glad I did. You really need to hold this bag to understand the quality of it. It's lightweight, water proof and in my opinion very stylish. In it i can fit my Nikon D7000 w/lens attached plus two lenses in the side compartments. I will admit that the shoulder strap can get uncomfortable at times but it doesn't bother me most of the time. This is a wonderful bag and I recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality, lightweight, stylish camera bag.

Comments about Billingham Hadley Pro Shoulder Bag (Black with Black Leather Trim):
Billingham, no doubt, makes the best camera bag out there. It's super comfortable and lightweight. The construction is superb!! No loud velcro to annoy you. It allows you to access your gears quickly and discreetly. Also well padded for protection of your equipments. The insert can be remove to turn the bag into a daily messenger bag. The best thing is that it does not looks like a typical camera bag; allowing you to carry your gears without worrying about people knowing that you're carrying thousands of dollar of equipments. The bag is also very fashionable unlike most camera bag. One down side to it is the price. It is an expensive bag but you do get your money worth. I recommend it all photographers especially street photographer and photojournalist.

Comments about Billingham Hadley Pro Shoulder Bag (Black with Black Leather Trim):
I've had this thing for awhile and it is made wonderfully. The bag itself is high quality and I high recommend it for carrying it daily.
It can't hold a tripod but I think that's fine because carrying a tripod with your body/lenses on one shoulder is too much so if you're packing light this is great.
I like this more than the large because of the handle and I like how the handle pulls evenly throughout the cover instead of straight through the rivets. Clever.

Wow! Now this is craftsmanship. This bag is awesome; it fits my Nikon d7000 with a 70-300mm lens attached and space for a spare lens in inside. I will buy another Billingham bag soon.

Comments about Billingham Hadley Pro Shoulder Bag (Black with Black Leather Trim):
I ordered a Black/Black Canvas and Khaki colors FibreNyte, to be honest, I can really tell the different between Canvas and FibreNyte material. But I do like the Canvas smooth touch feel on my hand while using it compare with the rough feel on my brother's FibreNyte. Even he wants to return it to exchange and wait for the old Canvas model, we can't really tell the different on that 10% weight difference. So me and my brother both prefer the Canvas material. Beside the material they are the best Camera bag i ever own, beside the price isn't really that friendly.

This is definitely the best bag I've owned. The material is way better than my Crumpler million dollar bag. It fits my Leica M8 nicely and I can easily access it.
