Re: [Leica] Wich Bag for a Leica M??

["Jim Laurel" <JimLaurel@earthlink.net>]

Not sure if I mentioned this before, but Domke has a new version of the 803
satchel out, the J-803.  It is made of the same ballistic nylon stuff as the
other J-series bags, and is much improved over the F-803.

1) The ballistic nylon material is much better in wet conditions. Can't tell
you how many times I had to hang up my F-803 in hotel rooms at night trying
to dry it off.

2) It slightly, almost imperceptibly larger.

3) New mesh dividers in the front pockets for pens, memo pad, small stuff.

4) New zipper pocket inside front flap.

5) Extra flat pocket between main compartment and front pockets.  Great for
holding a Kaidan QTVR head!
