Join me as I take an exclusive first look at the newest photography bag in the Kata Digital Photo Series, the 3N1-20. It is a sling bag that can convert from the single strap sling style pack to a traditional two-strap backpack for longer photo walks.
I am a photographer who likes having my camera gear at the ready, but I don't always want to wear it around my neck. Having only had the 3N1 for 24 hours, I am already in LOVE with it. As you will see in the video, I can swing the bag from back to front and easily pull my camera and gear out of the bag without ever removing it from my back. When I am am finished snapping a photo, I can put my camera back into the pack and swing it back behind me and be on my way.
In the bottom part of the pack, I carry my Canon 30D with battery grip and L-plate, Canon G9, Tamron AF 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 lens mounted, lens hood attached, Tamron AF 14mm rectilinear lens, Speedlight 580EX, Lensbaby 3G, polarizers, extra batteries, and other accessories. In the top part of the bag, I carry all of my personal items, wallet, keys, iPhone, sunglasses, water bottle, etc. I am not getting paid for this and don't mean to sound like an ad, but this is just the photo bag I have been waiting for. It's my new purse.
The 3N1 begins shipping in July and will retail for somewhere around $90 - $125 USD, depending on where you purchase it.

Now that I have mine locked and loaded, I'll be back in a week or two with a full functional review.

I bought a Kata photography bag and I really regret it since, after buying it I found out that it was made in Israel for a company that besides doing photography bags makes military items, ...and their violence is shown in their incursion on Palestinian territory, there is not doubt that they are violent people with disregard for human life, that is why I don´t bay anything from then, and I recommend not to collaborate with then and boycott their product.
The bag is great, there is one major issue. You can'bring a laptop. I typically bring a backpack as carry on for the lap top. Everything else is really great.
Excellent review. I am in the market for a sling bag. Is the 3N1 20 big enough for a Nikon D3 plus a 24-70mm and a 70-200mm? I know the 3N1 30 will be big enough but it will be too big for me. Could anyone has an answer?
