I am in desperate need of a way to carry my 10x8 camera and ancillary equipment.
I have ventured out with it once in a sports shoulder bag, with the equipment wrapped in bath towels, but that was not the most comfortable experience of my life to say the least. I managed about 25 yards from the car before the strap started biting into my shoulder.
I need to carry the following:
Wilderness V 10x8 camera approx. 6kg (13lbs)
Schneider apo-symmar 240 5.6
4x DDS
Sekonic L-508 meter
Dark cloth
GT2542 + GH2780 head
Cable release
But I would like to have sufficient room to add the following when funds allow:
a 360 or 480 copal 3 'slowish' lens
A Lee filter system
There seems to be plenty of reviews of the F64 BPX but I can't find a supplier in Europe for this item so I have also been considering the Mindshift Firstlight 40L
I am drawn to the Mindshift as I can buy it from a supplier in England for £250, am covered by our 30day returns regulations, and it looks more modern than the F64
I would need to import the F64 from USA which I could do for around £190 but once purchased I would have no option to return.
I also looked at the Arja after searching the previous posts but this seems to require the additional cost of a pre-formed insert system and I don't seem to be able to find a local stockist
So, if you own a Mindshift or F64 for 10x8, and have had to make the same decision please let me know your thoughts, or is there any other brand I should be considering?
thanks ...Sweep
