The only thing that is holding me back from getting this bag is the fact that I don’t wear belts. I wear the SAME thing every time I shoot a wedding. Black slacks (no belt loops,elastic waist band very comfortable) and a black shirt. I don’t wear jeans or pants with belt loops, so this wouldn’t work for me. I LOVE my One Bag from UNDFIND, but sometimes wish I could put stuff on my waist, instead of always hanging on my shoulders. So this bag is probably perfect for men. I would probably just have to change the way I dress in order to use it…. Has anyone else considered how it can be used without wearing a belt?

This looks like a great bag, but does anybody know if you could fit a macbook pro together with a DSLR with a medium sized lens in there?
If so, I’d be interested in using this as a “bring everyday” kind of bag.

seems this one is pretty well built and sewed nice (i hope). I have a shootsac and when you put lenses it hugs it so tight that its hard to pull it out when your in a rush and a months time the divisions inside ripped. So i had it sewed it back by hand. Im from the Phil and do ship here?

I like and use the think tank bags – similar to these but no zipper – scratching would be a concern with zippers. Assistant carries two (a 3 & two slot bag) i carry one three slot bag.

I got a One bag about a month ago. I’ve really liked it so far. My only wish was that it could double as a backpack as I have to ride my bike for part of my commute. Other than that, I’ve been really impressed with it. It’s super well built and durable.

Hi Jens, I’m the lead designer of The One System and wanted to help answer your questions here. To answer your question about the clip, I use the clip when you’re moving from room-to-room and don’t want to fully zip up your bag. I typically only zip my bag up when I’m putting my bag into my car or carry a bunch of stuff. The reason we didn’t use magnets for two reasons: (1) Magnets aren’t strong enough to allow to have three large lenses in the bag and safely flip the bag upside down. You can see a demo of us turning a full bag upside down with the quick clip here: http://kck.st/sGIyck. (2) There is the concern that magnets effect memory cards and other electronics.
I’ve thought including the same Velcro attachments on the back of The Waist Shooter on The One Bag because like you, I hate it when my bag moves around but at the same time during our testing, we noticed some people shoot with their bag on the back and when they need to grab stuff out of the bag, they’ll swing it to their side or even to the front. When you’re running, it’ll be just like any other messenger bag. Would love to hear the communities thoughts on implementing a Velcro attachment on the backside of The One Bag similar to the Velcro attachments on The Waist Shooter. The cover will not come off as it’s sandwiched with two 1.25″ wide Grade A Velcro strips. Lee is just a buff guy that’s why he was able to rip it off with ease :)Hope that answers your questions. If there are any suggestions or additional thoughts, I’d love to hear them. Just comment here, post the question on our FB wall (http://www.facebook.com/undfind) or send me an email (justin@undfind.com)

Since I haven’t used it, it’s hard for me to tell. But bringing up practical things like the materials they’ve used, how they feel/work. The clip on the front, is it a hassle to get your hand in there and open it in a rush? Would there be a better solutions for this like magnets? How does the bag do when walking around or even running – does it stay close to the body or will it be thrown around? Could the cover get ripped off my accident, since it’s only velcro that hold it on?

Just stuff like that really. Sorry for complaining, and thanks for the reply btw.

Totally agree Jens. The problem is that with a relatively simple product like this, it’s hard to create a review. How would you “review” a high quality lens cap? All you can do is show the features and explain that it is well made. “If you need a lens cap, you may want to consider this one”

You will never fit large camera in this with a grip but it isn’t meant for that.
