A camera bag, if chosen well, is a worthy investment for pro-tecting your valuable equipment from the daily encoun-ters on the field. Camera bags come in various shapes, sizes and customisations.
The Heralder series from Vanguard is a professional grade shoulder bag series for the photographers who are always on the move.
The Heralder series of camera bags come in three sizes, named Heralder 28, Heralder 33, and Heralder 38. The Heralder 28 fits one pro D-SLR, 3-4 lenses (up to a 70-200 f/2.8), a laptop/tablet of up to 10 inches wide screen size, accessories, and a tripod, while the Heralder 33 has the capacity for a pro D-SLR with grip, one additional body, 5-6 lenses, a laptop of up to 13-inch wide screen and the above accessories and tripod. The Heralder 28, on the other hand, can fit 1-2 pro D-SLRs with grip, 5-6 lenses (up to a 300mm f/4), a laptop of up to 15-inch wide screen along with accessories and tripod.
The Heralder 38 is made of high quality material and has a rubberised base. The zips are of very good quality and are very easy to use. It features a Quick Top Access zip that allows you to fish out equipment in a flash. It has a tripod holder, near the front flap, and a rain cover nicely hidden in a pocket at the back. In addition to equipment and tripod, the bag has ample space for one or two notebooks or writing pads. The equipment compartment and the customisable separators are heavily padded to ensure the safety of equipment. The shoulder strap has a rubber inner that prevents it from slipping. This too features comfortable padding and is made from high quality fibre. If you want to use the bag as a regular shoulder bag, all you need to do is remove the inner pouch along with the separators.
The Heralder series can be a great choice for photojournalists and photographers who travel a lot.
The Heralder 38 retails at an MRP of Rs.9,990 at Nikita Distributors, Pune. For details contact Mr. Raman Agrawal. Ph: +91 20 24476171/443.
