Have been using a Billingham which is just about identical to the 550 with the side pockets for 30 years now and it's still in great and rugged condition. You don't get them made better than this.
Superb but it is a bit of a pity that the 'Airline' and 'Pola' don't fit the ends,
The bag meets all technical, practical and aesthetic requirements. It is equally suitable for large and bulky DSLR and MILC gears. Quality is premium.
This is just an awesome bag. Large, but strong and durable, with an undeniable classic style. I really like the fact that this version remains true to its origins and is devoid of compromise-real canvas, real leather straps, no plastic or synthetics.
I like this bag because it is excellent quality,made of robust material and big enough for me to fit in all my camera equipment. Just what i was expecting from Billingham QUALITY.
I bought my 550 back in 1998 and it's still going strong. Other bags have come and gone, all have failed somewhere along the line but this bag just quietly goes about it's job. Here's a full review I did recently on my blog - I figure 15 years is enough time to compile a thorough review on it: [...]
I do tend to buy Camera Bags a bit like my wife buys handbags. Always looking for the perfect bag. It is a real commendation that I keep coming back to my Billingham's (plural) because nothing else I have tried is quite so functional.
I bought my first Billingham bag over 25 years ago, and it's still going strong. So there was no contest when it came to buying another bag. The Billingham 555 is the ultimate camera bag in terms of practicality and durability.
I know some people like hard sided bags to "protect" their equipment... but my cameras and lenses are perfectly safe in this bag (maybe some people shouldn't be so clumsy!). I know some people prefer back-packs as this more evenly distributes the weight when carrying the bag.
