Esddi has a line-up of four different camera and gadget bags that they asked me to review. I’ll first review the bags in general, then break down the specifics of each model in their own subsections.
While each bag is sold primarily on its capabilities for holding DSLR cameras and accessories, their versatile interiors can also organize and hold a variety of other personal gadgets and items.
The one backpack is made from canvas, while the other bags are made from nylon. Regardless of bag material, all are considered waterproof. While you obviously don’t want to purposely submerge any of these bags, the outer material won’t absorb water, so, more practically, your gear will stay dry in even the heaviest of downpours. In my own tests, placing the bags under a running sink faucet, I can confirm that they do indeed repel water.
As you’ll see from the photos, each bag is stylish in its own way and offers slightly different ways of organizing things. Naturally, the most radical design departure is with the canvas backpack. All other designs are the more traditional shoulder bag styles.
