Front of the bag has a unique clamp, but the material is made tough and is well thought out.


You can see the quality embroidering of our beloved website.

The PT sitting next to my Crumpler 7 million dollar home.


Another size comparison, same material, both really rugged and stylish.


Insides are similiar, the 7 million dollar home has less pockets, about the same padding, but more room. But have bright colors, and both hold a lot.

What's going in the bag typically.

Sekonic light meter, sb-600, Lee 77mm filter holder with Big Stopper, Lee SW 150 (14-24 filter kit) with 150-190 i believe gnd, rocket blower, Nikon d700, nikon GP-1, Nikkor 14-24 f/2.8, Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8 VR II, iPad 64 gb Wifi.

Everything in the bag, nice and snug. I could easily switch my ipad out and squeeze in my 17 inch MBP.


It has a zipper on top of the top cover flap, for easy access, so you don't have to undo everything to grab what you need quick (this sets it over the top for me).


The attention to detail, is astounding. On the top zipper (easy access), there is a magnetized strap that will keep the zipper from accidentally catching and opening.



Securely locked in place.

i'm probably going to sell to a friend, my crumpler bag now. My only negative for the PT bag is I can't fit as much in, when I put my D3s in there, but i'm not going to use this as a "bring everything I own" bag.
