This camera bag is compact and quite unassuming, from a distance it just looks like a normal handbag (with a vibrant colour). It's meant to carry a compact/mirrorless camera, but it can easily fit my mid-size dslr too with 2 smaller lenses. But it's obvious that the user meant to carry only a few necessary stuff in this bag, which is not a problem in my opinion, this bag has its use case. The padding is not very thick, but it should be enough just walking through a crowded street where people bump into you, but it probably wouldn't protect from a drop. Two things I would improve on the design (as a man who likes simple things) is the shoulder strap...it just seems untidy to me, and I don't like the thin rope-like part, it feels like it can get caught in things. The other, more annoying part is the opening of the bag is magnetic, and you should roll it back close the clasp....too complicated. I mean it's obviously not rocket science, but a zipper would be faster and more convenient. The magnet is very weak too, so it opens on its own, but rolled back, things wouldn't fall out, yet it feels a bit unsafe, and doesn't look that good. I can still recommend this bag, for those who want to leave the big bag with heavy gear in the hotel room and just enjoy the city with a capable compact camera and some essentials. For that, it's almost perfect.
