Billingham Bag

An old Billingham 225 camera bag, very dirty and neglected when bought, and given a scrub with soap and water, followed by application of boot polish and Brasso as appropriate.
I admire Billingham bags for their craftsmanship, gear protection, weather proofing, and durability. I have owned several different models. But I have not enjoyed using them, with the possible exception of the Hadley. They are heavy and not the best for access. Plus, they are expensive, as you might expect from the materials used and the impeccable construction.
Photographed with a Nikon D90 and AF-S DX Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G lens.

Close up shot with a Factory AI’d Nikkor-O.C Auto f/2 35mm lens on a Nikon D2Xs, where the field of view is akin to a standard 50mm lens on a full frame camera. The 35mm Nikkor-O.C Auto f/2 is a decent lens. According to Thomas Pindelski "This lens is fully the equal of any Leitz or Leica 35mm Summicron on a Leica M, regarded by many as the standard at this focal length".
This is praise indeed, since Leica’s reputation as a company is almost entirely based on its 35mm Summicron for the Leica M rangefinder.
It is quite hard to find the Nikkor-O 35mm f/2 on the secondhand market. Mine was manufactured around 1973.
Thomas Pindelski has an interesting and useful site; if your appetite is whetted this is the page about the Nikkor-O.C which made the picture above: pindelski.org/Photography/2012/05/05/nikkor-o-35mm-f2-lens
