They also mentioned this one, but I didn't like it at all  https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1431112-REG/timbuk2_1515_2_6114_mirrorless_camera_sling_bag.html



That Ranger bag looks way larger than the 5l peak design bag.  You're better off going with the 10L one.

Must be a new company, they only have one review.  

"I purchased this bag because it looked like fun and I like other Hex products. This bag is nicely done, but hampered by curious design decisions. The strap is attached to the side like a fanny pack (rather than the top). The length is too long (it could probably fit 2 cameras). The width is too narrow (you have to place the camera on its side, rather than on its bottom). I will keep the bag, but I am not certain how I will use it yet."

Actually found 1 review on Amazon, a little better, but still there is only one review

" 5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for your collection February 26, 2019Color: Ranger BlackVerified PurchaseThis is my second HEX bag.
I have the ranger backpack for when I need to carry all my equipment.
This bag is perfect for when you only need minimal equipment.
Fits my Sony Alpha a7iii and 2/3 lenses.
Durable material and very comfortable.
All the additional pockets make it even easier to carry my wallet, extra sim cards and/or a flash."

Just saw your responded to my post and notice this comment at the same time.  Dude, far from it.  Cameras are getting smaller, but still large bags are needed.  Perhaps more people will be buying smaller bags.  Yes that is plausible.  Think about the millions of DSLR owner, big bags are needed.  Think about the videographers, big bags are needed.  Thing about when you are going away on trip, likely larger bag will be needed.  Smaller bags are great for day trips, and when I'm out and about and want to go lean and mean.  

Just saying.

What I was trying to say and didn't do a good job is that cameras are getting smaller.  MOST people don't need large camera bags any more.  More and more smaller camera bags will be popping up from designers.  That's it.   :)

Gotcha, then I misunderstood your messages direction.  Yes, I agree with you then.

Not much else on Ebay, plus you get a lot of other stuff coming up under that name too.

Ranger is their newer one.  It will hold what you have there.

I went to Google Hex Ranger.  Looks like all that will fit, but honestly I'm not feeling that camo at all.
