Manfrotto MB Ssb5Bc Bella V Shoul. Bag B.C. Stile

Having recently had my DSLR stolen i went about building a new kit and therefore needed a small bag for everyday use to carry my new Pentax K5 and a spare lens. I chose this particular bag as the colour appealed and manfrotto are a reputable brand (although they do specialize in tripods). The bag is quite stylish in a khaki green colour and will take a DSLR plus 2 spare lenses or 1 spare lens and a flashgun. There are however a few 'schoolboy errors' with this bag that unfortunately are niggling me to the point where i am already looking for a replacement.1. There is no grip on the shoulder strap! This causes the bag to constantly slip off your shoulder.2. The metal buckle seems likely to cause damage to a lens or screen if not careful.3. There is no elasticated pocket on the outside of the case to slip in a lens cap.These may seem minor issues but my previous shoulder bag by KATA was much better quality and was faultless to use.Overall The Stile Bella V shoulder bag from Manfrotto is style over substance. It looks great which is what makes the niggles all that more frustrating, I am surprised a bag from a company with such a strong history in photography has not been better thought out. These problems may not be a deal breaker for everyone and if thats the case it is still a very stylish piece of kit, personally i will probably go back down the KATA route.

PRO: perfect size, price, material. look and feelCON: no side pockets, and flimsy top handle.I have had two big bags each of them can accomodate 5 lenses, memory cards, bottle of water and few more things in an extra compartment. But since I started travelling more and more on business I felt for a need of a bag that can fit my camera with an attached(18-105mm) lens as well as 35 mm prime. battery charger and few more small things. And this bag is perfect, one of my biggest goal was to be able to fit the whole bag in my cabin luggage while travelling by flight and it fits perfectly in my JanSport driver 8 Wheeled back pack along with two pairs of cloths, ipad and laptop!!The bag's look and feel is great, it has enough cushioning on top and sides. It has a main compartment for storing the camera and extra lens or flash or two small lenses. It also has a front pocket which can fit a charges, memory cards and may be a camera manual.Though the bag has been missing side pockets, this "con" makes it look good. Also the top handle does not have a nice feeling, it's just strap!

Perfect. Well crafted, well designed, with just enough quirks to distinguish it from others. Excellent structured materials and weight. The balance is smooth and the strap is comfortable. The quirky front latch is stiff and resilient. This is similar to a Lowepro but with all the fat trimmed off and built for endurance. My only issues is the reflective nature of the material and the front latch, especially in natural environments, when photographing animals.

I've bought my first SLR just a few months ago and I was looking for an inexpensive (but nice and well-made) bag to fit my "equipment": the camera, the lens and some accessories like an extra battery and memory cards. And it's so empty, surely it'll room another lens and a flash.I recommend this product for those who started in photography. I really liked and fits all my needs.

be cosa dire, trovata a un prezzo stracciato sugli 11 € , la borsa è bella, resistente, waterproof ,comoda, leggera, e capiente abbastanza per un viaggiatore che deve tenersela appresso anche sull'aereo o per giornate intere in spalla.Io la uso con una 5d mark iii con 28-70 montato, in più inserisco il mio powerbank con cavetti, il caricatore usb ,schede di memoria, tappi, e volendo potrei inerirci ancora una gopro.
