Every Camera Sling Bag Sucks Because the Manufacturers Are Clueless

As I've had many years to consider what makes a bad sling bag, I've been able to design a great sling bag for both photo and video producers.

Photographers and videographers deserve a sling bag that's truly designed around how they work, commute and create, one that adapts to them and gets out of their way.

So I decided to combine the best of each into a FrankenBag.

This was the first thing I noticed.
