Billingham Bag

An old Billingham 225 camera bag, very dirty and neglected when bought, and given a scrub with soap and water, followed by application of boot polish and Brasso as appropriate.

I admire Billingham bags for their craftsmanship, gear protection, weather proofing, and durability. I have owned several different models. But I have not enjoyed using them, with the possible exception of the Hadley. They are heavy and not the best for access. Plus, they are expensive, as you might expect from the materials used and the impeccable construction.
