What's In My Bag: Chrome Industries MXD Segment
I decided to do a quick What's In My Bag video with the Chrome Industries MXD Segment sling bag on my wife's day off, so please excuse the low-tech video using my iPhone 8 and my AirPods for headphones. I'll leave technical details down below for those who are interested, but the sound quality is passable at best. I like sling bags because it's quicker to access your gear versus a backpack, but also slim and out of the way. The biggest negative is that it's small and less protected compared to a proper camera bag. However, on light shooting days when you want to carry some stuff and have your main camera around your neck, I think sling bags can be a great alternative to a smaller shoulder bag, especially if you're active. Compared to a shoulder bag, a sling is more stable, although this bag does not have an optional stabilizer cross strap. If I was hiking or doing something more active, I would probably want a third stabilization strap under the arm, but for EDC daily use, this bag is fine. The MXD line is also very cool, created by Chrome's Japanese design team. In fact, when the entire lineup was first introduced, they immediately sold out, and they couldn't get me a review copy for a few months!! Now they're back in stock and I think they look really cool, as well as being functional.
