Billingham 5-series 445 MKII khaki tan

Mostly, though, the Billingham 5-series MKII bags are very much a case of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”, with essentially the same classic styling and design as the firm has used for decades. Shared features retained from the existing versions include a single main compartment for holding your camera and lenses, and a large front pocket intο which you can fit a tablet or laptop. Two more ‘dump’ pockets are found on the front, along with a flat zipped packet on the bank. Both the main and laptop compartments have zipped closures covered by a generously sized top rain flap. There are also loops for fitting tripod straps, which are sold separately. Key updates to the Billingham 5-series MKII bags are as follows: Each model now includes a luggage trolley strap on the back, to make them easier to transport on top of a wheeled suitcase. All four ship with Billingham’s unique ‘V-Bridge 15’ padded divider, which is designed to support the lens attached to a camera stored flat in the main compartment The smaller 225 MKII and 335 MKII models both benefit from a wider strap and shoulder pad for more comfortable carrying. The bags range dramatically in size, with the smallest 225 MKII being fairly petite and capable of holding an 11in tablet, a camera body, and up to three lenses. At the other end of the scale, the 555 MKII is more than the twice the volume, and will take a 16in laptop, 2 or 3 camera bodies, and multiple additional lenses. All have a main compartment that measures 15cm / 6in front-to-back, to accommodate everything from classic film cameras to the latest high-end mirrorless models. Unlike slimmer bags, including the firm’s popular Hadley range, they’ll hold a camera with a vertical grip and lens attached. The interior can be configured in multiple ways using the firm’s unique Superflex divider system, with a range of alternative inserts available separately. Billingham is using the same premium materials as ever, including its signature triple-layer canvas. This employs a waterproof ‘StormBlock’ butyl rubber layer that’s sandwiched between a robust outer fabric and a soft, non-scratch liner. It’s complemented by vegetable-tanned leather and durable solid brass fixings.
