When choosing your sling, it is important to consider the size too, not too big, not too small. Ideally with some straps for a travel tripod under. Peak Design (while pricey) makes some good ones in that field.
I want to move to a sling bag. I always use my 30 or 56mm with body and keep 1 extra battery on me, but I have to take a backpack because I will easily drink 5 waters per shoot and still be thirsty because of how much I'm sweating (these car meets are hottttt in Florida summer)
I got a backpack with a magazine subscription, I think it’s from Case Logic. It screams camera bag. I never use it anymore. Bought a Thinktank Mirrorless Mover (5i or something) some years ago. Doesn’t screen camera bag as much due to the more neutral colors. It’s OK, but when I sling it around the open/close the bag it really requires two hands to do so. That is because it opens from inside to outside (if that makes sense). Makes it harder to steal from the bag I suppose. These days if I take my camera out I try not to take any extra gear with me. Just the camera, a lens I’ve chosen and an extra battery. If possible I’ll improvise an insert to put it in a regular backpack. Really don’t want to make it look like I’m walking around with a lot of expensive gear. I really should look into getting a proper insert that I can toss in a regular bag.
Do you carry a lot of camera gear or do you like a more minimal approach?

HEY kislux I have been watching you for years and im so proud of where you have made it! I love you so much! Also thanks for making my day
My mom bought one kislux and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
I have the same sling bag and I absolutely love it. Works very well for my usage :)

I love you so much! I recently just found your kislux and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life
I bought a bunch of lens wraps so I could use any bag as a camera bag.
Got a sling bag from Amazon after you recommended it a few months ago, best decision ever
0:32 paint is easy to fix.
2/3 of my optics wont fit in any camera bag, i only have 3 lenses but the fact remains only one can fit in a bag.
