The Classic Messenger Bag

The Classic Messenger Bag

Domkef842


New


With three days left for free expedited shipping at B&H prior to Christmas, they're offering a great price on the updated version of the all-time classic messenger bag. The Domke F-842 (currently less than half price at $64.99) is a Domke F-802 but with a padded slot added for a 13" laptop and a panel added for securing the bag to the handle of a rolling cart.


If you want the laptop too you can get an Apple 13.3" MacBook Pro for $120 off or a mid-2014 Apple 13.3" MacBook Pro laptop with Retina Display for $150 off.


My Domke F-802 was a freebie from Kodak in the '90s and is now delightfully shabby, looking like it came from about the Spanish-American War. Really deserves a heavily brassed Leica to go with it....

Other deals include a return of the Black Friday price for the Fuji X100S at $849 ($450 off plus $31.40 in free accessories), a Nikon D810 for $300 off with nearly $100 of free accessories—and perhaps a Sigma 50mm ƒ/1.4 EX DG HSM in Nikon F mount to go with it for $100 off. Or how about an outstanding deal on a Canon 5D Mark III and a Canon printer that saves $687.30.


For less scratch, how about a waterproof beach camera for $169 or an easy-to-use Nikon 1—with lens—for only $149? Can't beat that with a stick.


(I will now accept wagers as to which of those links I got wrong. Sigh.)

Stephen Scharf: "I think it's really tough to beat Think Tank at this game. My Retrospective 5, in my experience, is the perfect camera bag and the best-designed bag I've ever used. I keep two Fuji X bodies and three lenses in mine, and the entire kit weighs less than a Canon 1D and 70-200mm ƒ/2.8."


Mike replies: True, but it's tough to beat $64.99 with $144.75, too.
