Full details

The Billingham 72 in Sage FibreNyte/Chocolate is designed for photographers who need to carry a small mirrorless camera with a standard lens attached, offering robust protection and stylish design.

FAQs

What size camera and lens does the Billingham 72 fit?

It is designed for a small mirrorless camera with one standard lens attached. This typically includes compact mirrorless bodies with prime lenses or small zoom lenses.

Is the bag truly waterproof?

The bag is made from a 3-layer waterproof FibreNyte material, offering excellent protection against rain and moisture. However, prolonged submersion is not recommended.

How do I clean the FibreNyte material?

Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and allow to air dry completely.

Can I carry more than one lens?

The Billingham 72 is designed for a camera with one lens attached. There is limited space in the front pocket for small accessories, but it is not intended for additional lenses.

What is the warranty on this bag?

Billingham offers a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee on this product.

Where is the bag made?

The Billingham 72 is made in England.

Does the strap detach?

Yes, the shoulder strap is fully adjustable and removable.

Troubleshooting

Strap attachments feel loose

Ensure the strap is correctly threaded through the solid brass D-rings and pulled taut. Check for any damage to the strap or D-rings.

FibreNyte material shows water marks

Allow the bag to air dry completely after exposure to moisture. For persistent marks, gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then rinse and dry.

Leather trim feels dry

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner specifically designed for full-grain leather. Follow the product's instructions for application and buffing.

Front pocket zipper is stiff

Ensure the zipper is free of debris. Apply a small amount of wax or zipper lubricant to the teeth and work the zipper back and forth gently.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Billingham 72 comes ready to use. Simply attach the adjustable shoulder strap to the solid brass D-rings located on the sides of the bag. Ensure the strap is securely fastened before carrying.

Compatibility:

This bag is designed to hold a small mirrorless camera with one standard lens attached. It is compatible with most compact mirrorless camera bodies, including those from brands like Sony, Fujifilm, Canon, and Nikon, when paired with a standard focal length lens (e.g., a 50mm f/1.8 or a 35mm prime lens).

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the FibreNyte: Wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water, then rinse and allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Leather Care: The full-grain leather should be treated periodically with a quality leather conditioner to maintain its suppleness and prevent drying. Use a soft cloth to apply and buff.
  • Brass Fixings: The solid brass hardware can be polished with a brass cleaner if desired, or left to develop a natural patina over time.
  • Storage: When not in use, store the bag in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Consider using a dust bag to protect it.
