The Hunter Pro 65 DSLR Holster Bag from Ruggard holds your camera face down, with the lens attached in shooting position. When you're ready to shoot, simply remove your camera, get the shot and replace your DSLR in the bag. The zippered top of the bag opens away from your body for fast access to your gear.

The bag contains three removable dividers that can be configured to accommodate the gear you are carrying. The bag has a water-repellent exterior and smooth polyester lining that helps prevent scratches to the finish of your camera/lens combo.
For storage, there is a front zippered organizer panel with a mesh pocket, an exterior mesh side pocket, and two side loops that accept optional pouches. On the inside of the bag's quick release flap, there are two touch-fastened memory card pockets. The bag is carried by its adjustable, removable padded shoulder strap, top carry handle, or use the belt loop that will leave your hands free. The zippers have yellow pull tabs for easy operation, even if you're wearing gloves. An attached, rapid-deploy rain cover is stored in the bottom zippered pocket. The bag has metal D-rings for attaching an optional chest harness.
