Billingham Hadley LARGE Camera / DSLR Messenger Bag in Black / Black (UK) BNIP

• A bit taller and wider than the Hadley Pro (but smaller in every dimension than the Hadley Large Pro).
• Removable padded insert to turn the bag from a camera bag to a casual bag.
• Constructed from a choice of 3-layer waterproof canvas or 3-layer waterproof FibreNyte material.
• Real full grain leather and brass fixings.
• Adjustable front pocket.
• Fits most DSLRs (without a battery grip) or almost any mirrorless camera – and 2-4 lenses with accessories. For example it will fit a Canon 5D lens-down or lens-up with 70-200mm lens attached while still leaving space for 2 or 3 other mid-sized lenses.
• 5 year manufacturers guarantee
• Made in England. 

The Hadley Large is based on the original Hadley - just a little taller and slightly wider. It lacks rear zip pocket or the handle of the Hadley Pro but its extra height provides that bit of extra space for lenses or documents whilst still staying very slim and close to the body. For example you can store a Canon 5D facing lens down or lens up with a 70-200mm lens so long as you don't attach a battery grip to the camera - you'll still have room to the side for 2 or 3 more lenses.

Like all Billingham bags it is made from three layer fabric - a canvas or Fibrenyte front, a butyl rubber lining that is impermeable to water and a final layer of fabric on the inside to add strength and improve drape and durability. Like all Billingham products, the Hadley Large isn't just beautifully made, it is designed to protect your equipment and keep on doing it for years.

Along with the other Hadleys it features the Quick Release System to which we have added solid brass buckles . Why both? Simple, the QRS allows you to open and close the bag quickly and securely and the buckles allow you to fine tune the ‘fit’ of the front pockets . For instance, if you have really packed in some bulky gear into one front pocket, you can just let out that side’s buckle to suit.

Also like the other Hadleys (except the Hadley Digital which has a single central fastener) the Hadley Large has a secondary stud fitted to both front pockets’ top outer corner which can be used to increase or reduce its capacity when closed it forms a perfect place to clip pens, pencils, etc. 

Like every Hadley (apart from the Digital) the Large features a removable padded bucket insert with adjustable partitions and an integral flap, held in position with Velcro® touch fastener strips. If you want to stack your kit, you can use more dividers. The whole insert can be detached by a single press stud, to transform the Hadley Large from a camera bag into an understated, stylish travel or work bag.

Finally like all Billingham camera bags it is made in England and comes with our 5 year manufacturers guarantee.
