Thanks for this. I’d been looking for something similar to hold my G1 and miscellaneous other stuff (two large compartments were essential), but hesitated to shell out over $50 for a small messenger bag or the like. My local military surplus shop didn’t have any used ones, but I bought a new one just like this for $15 (although black was all they had). It’s exactly what I wanted. Oh, and mine says it was made in India
I’ve appreciated all you’ve posted about the G1 – it helped me make the final decision to buy one (and has put the 45-200 on my must-buy list) – but I also enjoy reading the rest of your diverse posts here. Thanks for all of it.
I have a similar and slightly smaller Swiss army bag I picked up at an Army surplus store for my first SLR, way back in 1980. I still use it today for the G1 and lenses. With the body and kit lens, along with the 45-200 lens, and the ebay special Super Tak 50mm screwed onto and adaptor…. I still can barely feel the thing hanging off my shoulder.
