Moment Rugged Camera Sling 10l - Is it worth it?

Is the Moment Rugged Camera Sling 10L worth it? It's been out for about 3 years at this point and most other reviews have been pretty positive. That's why I bought it. But it isn't the bag for me and in this video I share the reasons why.

While i do agree the bag definitely has some comfort concerns depending on how much you pack it and individual body types. I need to comment as a PSA for anyone else who stumbles upon this video. • This is a SLING bag, think backpack but just one strap, its meant to sit on your back - high or low - not on your side like a messenger, hip, or shoulder bag. • Kendrick, unfortunately you were wearing the bag "backwards/upside down" during this entire video. The "short side" of the strap you kept referencing was facing the wrong way on the wrong shoulder, thats why the buckle was resting at the top of your shoulder instead of on your chest or lower where it belongs. The strap is reversible yes, so you can choose your preferred shoulder - but the buckle should sit at the lower point. Like I said, i agree with your concerns and points, but for the sake of the review and other people who will land on this video, you were wearing the bag incorrectly throughout this entire video.

Thanks for commenting! Your comment is well-written and has a helpful tone, which is rare here on YT. I have to assume you're a bot! I just went and reversed the strap and put it back on to remind myself how that felt. I think the problem falls into the bucket that this is designed to be worn across the back exclusively and due to it being a camera carrier... I'm wanting a sling that sometimes is on the back and sometimes spins around to be worn on the front depending on how often I'm pulling out the camera. I think this bag could potentially serve that purpose with a padded strap the entire length and an easy way to increase the length and shorten the length depending on the moment/mood/situation (like the Peak Design straps). while i was looking/thinking about this situation, I thought maybe just replacing the strap IS the answer... so I dug up a few straps I had sitting around including the Tim Bihn absolute strap, which actually improved the comfort by a fair margin, but didn't totally solve the issue and also created an awkward hanging with the bag leaning away from the body more than it should. I think if there were a couple of hook points that were higher up above the center of gravity on the bag, then it could come down to simply choosing a strap I liked better. Anyway, thanks again for your comment, I hope it and this comment, help others make the right choice for themselves!

Hi, can you fit a DJI gimbal inside?

[@KendrickDischCreative]

Yes! Just tried the ronin-s and it fits fine. Later versions should fit even better. I posted a pic on my community posts.

This video saved me from a big mistake, thank you. While the offset pad works for me as I always carry as a sling with my bags on my back as intended unless actually accessing the interior that short strap would be a deal breaker. I'm 6' 6", 230 pounds and I can image it would be at least as short on me as on you. My Peak Design Everyday Messenger 13" is just barely long enough but just too large. My Bellroy 10L sling works well, is not as boxy and still holds a large body w/lens and 2 extra lenses.

BTW, their website says the strap adjusts from 52" down to 16" on the current models which does seem short.

You know it’s a sling bag not a messenger bag?

[@KendrickDischCreative]

That’s a fair point to bring up but even as a sling it’s not working for me. Cuts into the neck too much and the shoulder strap doesn’t hit the shoulder. Kind of awkward to have a sling this bulky up in front of you or to the side. That’s why I want it to hang lower.
