Customer Reviews: Great camera bag for compact DSLR! June 29, 2010 Dave Candela (Chicago, IL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this camera bag for my new Olympus e-620 body and two lens kit Olympus Evolt E620 12.3MP Live MOS Digital SLR Camera with Image Stabilization and 2.7 inch Swivel LCD w/ 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 and 40-150mm f/4.0-5.6 ED Zuiko Lenses. The bag holds the body with one lens attached, the second lens, plus the battery charger and a spare battery. Domke bags are very well made. I spent a little more on this bag than I was planning to, but it is worth every penny.
I treated the bag with Tectron water repellent. After I treated the bag, I let it air out for a day or so until the solvent smell dissipated. Now I have well-designed, rugged, and water repellent bag that is perfectly sized for my camera and lenses.

The only problem with Domke is that there is no local dealer and it is hard to figure out what bag I need. But what more can I say? It's a Domke and it is perfect. I'm going to say the same thing about every Domke product that I buy. I have used Domke bags since the late 70s.
Well built - good looking, very functional June 8, 2008 Joseph A. Arena (Rochester, NY United States) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I just received my Domke F-10. I was looking for a bag that looked good, wasn't too large, and would carry my XTI, with either two additional lenses or one lens and my 550ex Speedlight flash. This bag looks like a winner. Compact, clean-looking. Looks well built.
The bag comes with a non-removable long shoulder strap, a detachable medium strap and a built in hand-grip strap on the top of the bag. The bag has two velcro dividers in the main compartment. My XTI fits nicely in the middle of the main compartment, with the 75-300 lens attached, pointing down. The handgrip overlaps into one of the outside compartments, but still leaves room in that outside compartment for my 17-50 lens.
The other outside compartment is large enough for another extended zoom lens. There are two zippered pockets on the bag, a very large one on the outside, large enough for a point/shoot camera, batteries, filters, cards. That pocket is 10" at the top, 6" at the bottom and 6 1/2" tall. Expanded, it is 2" deep. The other pocket is in the flap of the bag. It is not very deep, and doesn't appear to all that useful. With the flap 'up', and the zipper open, items in this pocket will fall out, as all of the storage room is above the zipper.
The main flap of the bag is secured in a locked position by both a very large velcro strip, and a metal clip. The velcro is very loud when opened. I'll probably have my wife sew some cloth around most of the velcro to limit the strength of that connection.
I like the metal clip - it looks like it will last much longer then the normal plastic clips on most bags.
Likes about the bag: Looks, size, workmanship.
Dislikes about the bag: The velcro closure is too noisy
