Billingham Hadley Shoulder Bag Small (Burgundy with Chocolate Leather Trim)

This bag is perfect for a micro four-thirds system. I use it to carry an Olympus OMD EM10 Mark II body, compact kit lens, 45-150mm zoom lens, Olympus 17mm prime, spare batteries & cards, charger, lens cleaning kit, iPad Air 2 in its own case, portable over-ear headphones, energy bars, iPhone charger / cable, and a small book. With all this stuff, there's still room for another lens or two.But if you have a full-sized DSLR and more than two lenses, or if you want to carry your 13" laptop in the same bag as your camera gear, I'd suggest getting the regular size Hadley bag, which is a bit taller and wider.As everyone else says, the Hadley Small and Hadley Pro bags are beautiful and superbly built. I have the Small and wish it had a handle on top (like the regular Hadley Pro does), but otherwise it's perfect.I got mine tricked out with a Hadley leather shoulder pad Billingham SP40 Leather Shoulder Pad Tan and Hadley luggage tag https://www.amazon.com/Billingham-Leather-Luggage-Tally-Tan/dp/B001ECV72I/ (available cheaper elsewhere). Both of these accessories match the Hadley bags perfectly and enhance their beauty and functionality. My gear is light enough that the shoulder pad isn't really needed, I'm guessing that will be true for most people who opt for the small Hadley; if you have enough gear to fill the regular Hadley, the shoulder pad is more of a necessity.The Hadley Small and Hadley Pro bags are not cheap, and when you add the shoulder pad & luggage tag (which arguably should have been included) you're dropping a lot of coin on a camera bag. There are dozens of excellent camera bags for less than half the price.All of this is to say that you don't buy a Hadley because you want a bargain. If you really appreciate fine luggage, that looks as great as it's built and will last forever, and if have a bit of discretionary income to drop on a luxury item, this bag is for you.

I think I may have let the reviews here and in the photography forms I participate in get into my head. My expectations were way too high for this bag. Its just a camera bag. Not even the nicest bag I own. Certainly the most expensive though if you go by dollar per cubic inch of space available. Don't get me wrong, its a decent bag but its just a bag. Looks like it will last a while but the layout isn't the most functional. I think its more of a fashion statement than anything else.

good looking and functional bag with a couple of caveats1) SP15 ($38) is a must have otherwise it will but into your shoulder for a long day2) dividers are too tall (same height as the container). I am having a hard time puting fuji x-t1 with 56mm attached, plus 35mm f2.0 and rokinon 12mm. They should make it 3-4 inches shorter than the container height, so that i can put my camera with lens attached top down. with a prime lens each side. for this divider, i will have stack two primes on one side.3) since this color combination is so good looking, i guess it does attract attention that "I am wearing an expensive bag"I really like the look, but in terms of functionalities, I still prefer to my tamrac rally 3444 for 1/6 price (more spaces with water bottle holder and half pound lighter) .

I ordered this after returning the Digital Hadley because it was too small for Fuji XT2 with 2 lenses. This bag is the perfect size and front pockets holds grip and accessories. I can even squeeze in an IPAD between the insert and rear of the bag. Wish it had a handle on top and rear zipped pocket like the Hadley Pro. Love the smaller form - not obtrusive and easy to carry. I can attest to the durability of Billingham bags as I have used a Hadley Pro for many years and it continues to be my goto travel bag. Highly recommended.

I love this bag!It's small on the outside, but safely and conveniently holds my entire walk-around kit. Just a little fidgeting with the movable interior dividers and I've got it set up to hold a Leica M9 with lens attached, three additional lenses, a small Metz flash, a Manfrotto pocket tripod, spare cards and batteries, plus my iPad.The quality of the materials and construction are absolutely top notch. You can tell when you get your hands on this thing that it's built to last a long time.

Beautifully made, extremely water resistant (set mine out in the pouring rain for hours and t was bone dry inside). I usually carry a Fuji X100T, Sekonic meter and a Leica M6 with a 35mm lens mounted and have room to carry both X100 conversion lenses. Still have both pockets free to carry batteries, film and keys. This leaves it about as full as it can get so if you want a bit of spare room, the next size up might be a better option.

A great, small camera bag, it easily holds a mirrorless body and a couple of extra lenses as well as spare batteries and other accessories. For the old school among us it easily holds a typical SLR, extra lens and a few rolls of film. The bag is well built and should last a lifetime.

I deliberated long and hard before purchasing this bag. I was looking for a day bag for a camera body, lens or two, flash and a couple of filters. I use a mirrorless camera so I don't require as big a bag as others might. Light weight is good, waterproof without an extra cover better. I checked out other bags and kept coming back to this one. Finally bought it, glad I did.
