The Herringbone Beatle Bag Review: Billingham Style For Less?

The Herringbone Beatle Bag Review:

Hey everyone!  Here is another bag review but this time, it’s going to be something a little bit different.  There are so many different bag manufacturers out there today yet somehow we always see the same old thing.  For instance, the world is full of bags from companies, such as, Lowepro, Crumpler, and Domke.  I even see quite a few people using Billingham bags nowadays.  Don’t misunderstand me, there is nothing wrong with any of these bags at all.  All of these companies mentioned make great camera bags, and it only makes sense that people buy them by the thousands.  In fact, I’m a big fan of Billingham bags myself, and I haven’t bought anything else in almost 20 years.  But let’s just say that you want something different this time.  Where do you look?  Well, if you want something completely different from everything else out these days, it’s hard but not impossible to find.  Maybe you should check in…Korea.  I say Korea because this is where the Herringbone Beatle bag is made.

A Quick Video From Zeiss About Lenses For The Fuji X-Pro1

A Quick Video From Zeiss About Fuji X-Pro1 Lenses:

Man, I am so psyched about the new Zeiss lenses coming out for the Fuji X-Pro1 and X-E1.  Here’s a video interview with Dr. Pollmann about the new lenses for the Fuji X-mount and Sony mirrorless cameras.

It looks like Dr. Pollmann is holding on to the Zeiss 12mm for the X-mount.  This is so cool!  It’s a great time to own one of these fantastic cameras from Fuji.  I love my X-Pro1, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for it in the future.  What do you all think about the new Zeiss lenses?  Are any of you planning on buying one?  Feel free to comment below :).  On a side note, did anyone see the Samyung 8mm Fisheye for the Fuji X-mount?

Some Fuji X-Pro1 Shots Apple Picking:

I am still enjoying the Fuji X-Pro1 system immensely after all these months.  I might even trade in my X100 to buy an X-E1 soon to add to the collection.  The X-Pro1 is such a great camera because it can produce stunning images but at the same time, you can just have fun with it.  It’s a great camera because you can take it anywhere so easily.  For instance, I took it apple picking with me over the weekend.
