The Tenba Bag, The Nikon 50mm f/2 Lens
The Tenba P-750 Pro Pak™ is a camera bag of an unusual design dating from the early 1980s. Aside from the main compartment there is a fairly deep compartment within the lid to store 30 to 40 rolls of film, and a stout zip fastener to keep the contents secure. On the other side of the top ‘half’ - i.e. on the inside of the bag’s main compartment - is a modest zipped compartment which might be for tickets and passport-type documents. There are four ‘D’ rings, for a back-harness or tripod straps, and unusual side straps which can be deployed to limit the travel of the lid or to transport a monopod. The material used for the bag is ‘Cordura’ which is a synthetic waterproof fabric. Unfortunately it is so tough that it wears friction holes in photographers’ clothing. Later versions of this bag had a soft pad stuck on where the bag would meet its owners’ garments.
The coups de foudre are the two external pouches which make this bag unusually distinctive in a market place stuffed with boring oblong boxes with straps. Another indication of a distinctive design department at Tenba during this period is their logo (not visible in this photograph but sprayed liberally around my ipernity stream elsewhere) which reads the same when the bag is turned upside down. Tenba abandoned that hip logo, possibly because it appeared to suggest that this was the ‘equa’ model, or (less likely) because customers turning their bags upside down on learning that the logo was ambidextrous accidentally broke their kit when it all fell out.
Photographed with a Nikon D700 and a Nikkor 50mm f/2 AI lens. 2200 ISO; f/2.8; 1/125th.
