ONA - The Berlin II - Camera Messenger Bag - Vintage Bourbon Leather (ONA5-028TN-2)

Good bag for your Q, too. The removable grab handle and the dual latches are important, and you get plenty of room for camera, flash, extra charger and batteries, plus a zippered pocket for cards and batteries. I would have added 4 metal knobs on the bottom, because the leather sits flat on any surface.

It's for sure a pricey bag. But knowing that this bag could literally last a lifetime makes the price seem a little more reasonable. I got tired of having to replace worn out bags every few years, now I don't have that problem anymore.

Here is my mini-review on the ONA Berlin II:The aesthetic design of the ONA Berlin II is great. It is a bag that I wouldn't hesitate carrying around. I haven't yet had it long enough to judge the quality of the workmanship but it feels rugged and rubble and I think that the leather should hold up over the long run. However, I think that they need to revamp the design a little bit and come out with an ONA Berlin III. Here are some of my complaints:1) The side pockets too small for water bottle, umbrella, or sunglasses in hard case. What were they intended for?2) The interior pockets in the front section are too small for the things that I think should be in a camera bag my personal examples are:- 52mm filter case - I tend to carry a polarization filter around for when the water is glaring, when I want to shoot through glass and there is a reflection, or when the sky just isn't blue enough.- X-rite color checker- Moleskin pocket notebook3) No key hook in the front section - this would be nice. Put this on the side of the zipper which opens last, you don't want to lose your keys with a partially closed zipper and you don't need your keys very frequently.4) Pen slots on the wrong end of the zipper. These are where the key hook should be. These are accessed often. Especially the pen like lens brush that I almost always carry.5) Instead of making the pockets inside the front section wide enough they have a tiny pocket which might be for an SD card. I can't imagine anything else fitting. If they have extra space - elastic loops for batteries or a pocket knife might be nice.6) The strap is too long for me. This puts the shoulder pad on the lower part of my shoulder blade and the buckle just past the apex of my shoulder. I might get this fixed.In spite of all of that, I kind of like the bag. I might go to a shoe maker/luggage and leather shop and see if they can do a couple of simple mods like shorten the strap. I think that the size of the side pockets are so integral to the design that I don't think that can be changed. I fit a very small water bottle in there with great force and hope that in time the leather will probably stretch. Unfortunately, the useless of the side pockets will probably drive me to keep a look out for another bag.
