Kaiser EasyLoader

£33/$44 www.fotospeed.com

Kaiser’s entry is the smallest bag here, measuring 15.5x15x10.5cm internally. It’s best suited to an entry-level DSLR equipped with an 1855mm kit lens.

Unlike the Cullmann bag, the lid doesn’t have a rim that protects the zip against water ingress. There is a protective flap on the underside of the lid for camera screen protection, but it’s very basic. Behind this flap are two slots for memory cards, as well as a separate mesh pocket that could be used for a small filter.

Despite its relatively small interior, the zippered front pocket is just about large enough to contain a small pancake lens. There are also stretchy pouches at either end of the bag suitable for a few spare batteries.

While this isn’t the cheapest bag on test, it does feel it. Padding is reasonably thick, but the overall build feels weak and squashy, and there isn’t even a pad for the shoulder strap. There’s a few too many cut corners considering the price.

Pros

Very lightweight; fairly good accessory storage

Cons

Only suitable for small cameras; cheap-feeling construction

We say

Not a bad bag, but you can do better at this price Overall score
