A634 — Reporter’s Waist Pack

This is a minimally padded bag with numerous pockets and slots for mobile phone, sunglasses, lenses, small camera bodies, point-n-shoot camera, vlogger camera, business cards, coins, video tapes, checkbook, passport etc.

  • Version 3.0 is padded in the front, back & bottom
  • The V034 Divider Kit includes three moveable and removable padded dividers: 2 each of V055 Small Dividers (for putting between lenses) & 1 each of the V025 Trap Door Divider (for stacking optics)
  • A shoulder strap is not included, but the Y315 is recommended as a companion to this product.
  • This bag was originally designed for non-optical items, but we had several requests from shooters who wanted to use it for stowing lenses and bodies, consequently, we started sewing in a piece of 10mm foam that covers the bottom and ends of the bag (version 2.0, April 2022). 
  • The main zipper compartment uses a chemically-treated #8 YKK water-repellent zipper.
  • The base model does not include interior dividers or a waist belt, but it fits on any Kinesis waist belt or your own pants belt. No adapters are required. 
  • Holds an iPad Mini or an analog Reporter’s Notebook. 
  • If you want more stability while being worn on a Kinesis belt, consider the Y306 Compression Strap, or the Y208 Quick-release Strap would work. The latter has an inline quick-release buckle so you can quickly release the tension and then rebuckle to tighten it.
  •  Check out this 2021 review of the older version with less padding than version 3.0 has, on Shutterbug.

Warning

Please note that this bag is rather large and may not be suitable for people with a smaller build. (The overall width was originally designed around a Reporter’s Notebook and the height is determined by the height of a common US checkbook.)
