Tamrac Anvil Slim 15 Reviews

Tamrac makes great camera bags

By Rob
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-03-04

I'm probably in the minority but I don't like Shimoda or Peak Design. The internal padding and capacity in those bags don't work for me. That's what sets Tamrac apart. They make great camera-safe bags with padding built for protection without robbing you of space. This bag fits two bodies and three lenses along with accessories for a workshop down the street or to the mountains. It's not too big and not too small. It also fits perfectly in small commuter overhead compartments - meets all my needs.

These cases are THE best. Plenty of compartments. Zippers of quality materials. Many dividers. All padded in all areas. The quality of the shoulder straps and waist belt are over the top, better than most backpacks. My old tamrac camera bag still looks new and have had that since 2008. Highly recommend.....

Does it hold a water bottle or bladder? How much does it weigh?
Asked by: Jan
There will be no specific water bottle compartment for your bottle. You will have to put it inside or use the tripod part to do this. The bag will weigh 4.6 pounds.
