PacsafePacsafe Camsafe Z6 Anti-Theft Camera Bag, Slate Green

SUMMARY: A pretty good workable compromise between the main compartment adjustable storage and the front compartment's fitted organiser pockets/slots which are for slim items only. The side pocket's shape and size makes it very limited but at least it's there. First UK review so below I go into detail.MAIN COMPARTMENT:1. Roomy. Padded interior. Two adjustable/removeable velco-fastening padded dividers (two different shapes and sizes), padded, which go anywhere including high or low; one of the dividers can fold over.2. Padded labelled tablet sleeve, takes a 7-inch tablet; if it's in a case it bulges a little into the main compartment.3. Clipping together the zip pulls ('kissable' zips) and inserting them into the Roobar is fiddly, especially if your fingers are affected when out in cold weather.4. The lid is great as it opens up and away from you, as opposed to bag lids that open toward you and impede access. It has a zipper pocket (you can mostly see into it from the outside) which incorporates fitted pockets for SD cards. The zip pull is a length of paracord with a knot in the end, can be pulled by a gloved finger. Built-in zip garage - tuck the zip pull in there and it won't dangle.FRONT POCKET:A. For slim and/or few items only. Could do with being bigger.B. Organisation slots don't quite extend the full width of the pocket, wasting space (it's shrinkflation compared to Pacsafe models a few years ago). The pen slots are a good width; I put a 4-in-1 screwdriver in one. Credit card slots so exactly fit a credit card that you need to wiggle them in. Slots fit all credit, debit or ATM cards as size and shape are governed by international standards ISO/IEC 7810:2003 and ISO/IEC 7813, i.e. 85.60mm x 53.98mm x 0.76mm, corner radius 3.18mm (dimensions given so you can check your cards before buying the Bag).C. RFID-blocking pocket, suitable for a slim wallet. Pacsafe often states the frequency range but I can't find it for this Bag.D. The phone pocket reluctantly admits other phones than slimline smartphones, but a larger clamshell phone has no chance anywhere but in the zipped memory card pocket in the main compartment's lid.E. Good-sized lens cloth with eyelet hole so it can be optionally attached to the built-in clip inside the front pocket - that clip has a good long cord.F. Zippered pocket opposite the fitted organisation.SIDE POCKET: A topless 'uniform triangular prism' (to use the geometrical term). Can't get much in. Poppers are stiff. Need both hands to close the poppers.CARRYING STRAP: Length adjustable for shoulder or crossbody. I found the Bag comfy to carry either way. Has a small moveable softish pad for weight-distribution, a good idea if carrying a heavy camera. Fully detachable. Each end has lockable carabiners with Pacsafe's TurnLock security feature, enabling you to detach one and put it around a stationary object. The carabiners are roomy enough that you can attach items e.g. torch or swiss army knife.HANDLE: There's a handle on top. Pacsafe advertises that the Bag can be optionally attached to a belt; I haven't done that; reckon you'd need a strong belt.EXTERIOR: ExoMesh Slashguard built into the fabric to defeat slash-and-grab attempts (the fabric would be damaged but the metal mesh framework should survive).APPEARANCE [PERSONAL]: When full the Bag looks bulky and sticks out from my hip in an unattractive way, because the exterior fabric is canvas and stiff and has little "give".INNER LINING ADJACENT TO ZIPS: Lining is stiff in places and can get caught while doing up or undoing a zip, so at times the lining needs to be pushed out of the way. I own(ed) twelve Pacsafe bags and this is a recent problem.STORAGE SIZE SPECS:Pacsafe bag specs include litre storage sizes but they're definitely only rough guides.This Bag states a capacity of 6 litres but I can't fully transfer into it all the contents of my Pacsafe Metrosafe LS140 whose stated capacity is 5 litres; this is probably due to differences in the bag configurations and because the Z6's outer material is stiff and has little "give".COMPARISON BETWEEN PACSAFE'S Z5 AND Z6 CAMERA BAGS: I've used both the Z5 and Z6. Comparison highlights:(1) Z5 is a smidgeon smaller overall, but the main compartment feels roomier than the Z6 and comes with 3 padded adjustable dividers. Z6 has only 2 such dividers.(2) Z5 has a front pocket like the Z6, but Z5 has no fitted organisation.(3) Z5 has clip-zip security. Z6 has clip-zips and also newer security e.g. Roobar, 'kissable' zips. Both have TurnLocks on the carry strap. Both have ExoMesh Slashguard.(4) Z5 has no poppered side pocket.(5) Z6 has a lens cloth.(6) Considerinng the above I don't feel the big price difference is justified.OTHER Z6 SPECS (some not given when I bought; edited from Pacsafe)Pacsafe's own anti-theft features: 'Carrysafe' slashguard straps. 'EXomesh' slashguard lining. Interlocking ('kissable') zip pulls. RFID-blocking pocket. Roobar zip anchor lock. 'Smart Zipper Security'.

Muy buen producto. Tiene muchísima calidad en todos los aspectos, se ve extremadamente duradero. Es una opción genial aunque un poco cara teniendo en cuenta su tamaño. Llevo una a7iii con un 28-70, un flash, y sobra espacio más que suficiente para otro objetivo.Tiene un bolsillo para una tablet.Todo va con un acolchado muy muy bueno, difícil de superar, no he visto otros tan buenos.La bandolera es muy consistente y fuerte además de cómoda, el asa de mano es básica, no es gran cosa.Tiene un bolsillo lateral que prácticamente no es útil. Excepto para llevar algún documento o papel.El bolsillo delantero es relativamente amplio. Aunque tiene muchos bolsillos internos no puedes llevar muchas cosas dentro que abulten demasiado, no se puede sobrepasar mucho el ancho que es de unos 3cm, si metes algo que ocupe más se verá inchado y no entrara mucho más.En general estoy muy contento con el producto adquirido. Cubre con creces mis necesidades.

I have been trying to find compact carrier for my Leica M240.So far, this bag is the most versatile compact carrier.No regrets buying it.

It was to small for me I sent it back

From a security standpoint, this is one heck of a well-designed bag. When it's locked down, it's as secure as it gets. You can even put a TSA-approved lock on the main compartment. (Which, BTW, has a nice mesh pocket for memory cards. The front pocket can hold all your misc. items like cards, pens, phone, etc. There's a tethered microfiber cloth - perfect for getting dust, etc off lenses. Plus a tethered key ring, a zippered pocket & an RFID-safe pocket with hook-and-loop closure. My only complaint? The extra space in the main compartment is only accessible by partially removing the hook-and-loop dividers. But with all the security, it's a small price to pay.Update: I was targeted by a pickpocket while in Tallinn, Estonia last week. Thanks to the anti-theft features of this bag, he got zip. Investment now thoroughly justified. Changing rating to five stars.
