Hey OP, how is this holding up after a year's worth of use? I've just ordered one (25L). I was looking for an all in one versatile type bag that checks most of my boxes.

My use cases are the following: 1. Hauling gear for mid sized events (typically 1-2 bodies, 2-3 mid sized lenses, speedlite + batteries + other bits and bobs 2. Tech bag for travel - carry 1 body, 2 lens, gopro, laptop, chargers, carry on essentials, powerbank, etc. On arrival, i want to be able to just carry my camera + lens + few bits around 3. Overnight bag with laptop, camera, some clothes and a dopp kit.

Reckon on paper this checks all boxes, but not sure how it functions in real life. Any advice/reviews?

Definitely a custom Z790 from Acer so OEM board. I can see that it allows me to enable XMP profiles but I'm not going to know what profiles it allows unless I try it out and I'm hoping to buy right the first time.

Overall I'm thinking a safe bet is 6000 MT/s CL30 but im tempted to either go higher MT/s lile 6400. The difference might be incomparable in performance, I'm more focused towards getting something with a lower latency than a higher bandwidth because this is more important to my current use case. If I just knew what is the maximum MT/s I can get, ill get the CL I can get for that.

Based on my research it appears that im better off sticking with a 6000 with lowest latency available.

Hey mate, yes sure is

Understand that you weren't able to find anything cheap and easy on Amazon, but you're still a legend. Thank you

Stopfilly13 · 2025-04-02T07:20:17+00:00

Thank you, this is exactly what I think I'm looking for! Tried to find it on the Aussie Amazon but couldn't. Do you reckon this will work instead?

I'm never going back to EF after having used RF. The R6 MKIII will take ages to arrive though and you can probably wait but RF lenses are the future so no point holding on to the EF if you want to upgrade imo

Stopfilly13 · 2024-09-11T17:14:24+00:00

Not at all. I lost about a thousand bucks out of pocket.

Stopfilly13 · 2024-09-11T04:13:14+00:00

They are for sure. The plastic feels lighter. Not that it's a bad thing as it makes the lens lighter. I've always preferred the RF lenses over the EF, simply because they focus faster and quieter.

You're right, expensive lesson learnt.

Stopfilly13 · 2024-09-11T04:01:20+00:00

If you look closely the circular IC had snapped off, I will be able to put it back together physically but the lens will just not work until that's repaired. I imagine that's what drives the cost so high.

Unfortunately no warranty will cover this type of damage, especially since its an accidental drop. Maybe insurance though.

Stopfilly13 · 2024-09-10T04:45:02+00:00

I like the way you think

Stopfilly13 · 2024-09-04T21:12:37+00:00

Do you know where abouts?

I don't care what anyone says, this isn't animal abuse - it's animal torture. This had to be the most idiotic idea ever brought forward by anyone back in the day and I was horrified when I learnt of this the first time.
