Peak Design Everyday Messenger V1: Setup + Tips

[@el_tekio]

I just got my Everyday MB a few days ago... Guys, I'm totally in love with it. 100% funcional at all scenarios. With so much details and "trick" for helping you carry your daily and camera stuff. Some people just though how to solve every common issue to stock, carry and rapid use of your gears, meshed all in one single, elegant and useful bag and gave us this freaking cool bag. I bow to you Peak!!

[@azizkiro]

Got mine yesterday. I ordered bunch of stuff and waited for this bag so I can open the rest. Like Christmas! Bag is out of this world. So quality, so stylish, so functional. But than again, everything I ordered from Peak is amazingly done. I got capture pro clip, pro pad, clutch, slide elite, slide (blue) and field pouch. Contemplating of getting small cover. Everything is done with perfection. Material is high quality, no space waisted. I wish you guys get more involved in industrial design. Huge fan here! I pack Sony a6000 with 18-105 and my kit lens plus sigma 60mm. Got light, extra batteries, cords and support power sticks. Beside photography I got UE megaboom speaker and Bose ae2 headphones. Everything fits perfectly. Anyway.. Great buy! Super satisfied. Proud owner. Ps. Kudos on black peak design packaging

I don't even own one yet and i already in love with this bag.i hate my current camera bag and this one is already a huge difference.

[@jonathangaines4466]

I backed this bag on Kickstarter and am so happy I did! It is the best bag I've ever had. So well thought out and designed. Looks great too! I use it as my daily driver for work.

[@mamallamaG]

I have mine, but my husband says I have to wait until Christmas because it's my Christmas present! I'm dying. But these videos have given me a good Everyday Messenger bag fix! I'll be ready to go Christmas morning. :)

[@scottwoelfel6561]

Wow, I am even more blown away by the design that went into this bag. Can't wait to get mine. Waiting for that shipping email!

[@cybershui]

Thank you! Incredibly useful video, especially on how to configure the inside of the bag with the inserts. Helped me measurably optimize my bag load out config.. Thanks Art and the Peak Design team for making and awesome product!

[@CChapin831]

This was super helpful. I've been puzzling over how best to use the dividers. Thank you for really going into it and showing a lot of possibilities.

[@flooeyx]

Wow! The team really thought about everything. Love it! Can't wait to receive mine in the mail!

[@musicmonzta]

Ich hab meinen Everday Messenger direkt nach Kickstarter gekauft und benutzen Ihn immer noch für mein Foto-Equipment und bin immer noch sehr zufrieden. Ich besitze auch den Capture und ich will Ihn nicht mehr missen!!!

[@12ay]

The only thing I wish for is that you guys can make a smaller version of this gorgeous bag

[@peakdesignvideo]

+penisonic2008 We are working on a smaller version as we speak! Sign up for our newsletter for updates --> pkdsn.com/newsletter

[@EndlessAwsome]

The capture attachment points are also good for carrying a U style bike lock. They are hypalon reinforced on the inside and hold the the bike lock securely! Great for commuters!

[@mmeyer1952]

I just ordered my bag after seeing the final setup. I have 3 quite large lenses, with my 24-105 being the smallest in terms of physical length, and this gave me an idea as to how I can hold all 3 and a flash, assuming that the inserts can go sideways...then fold up to pull a lens out.

[@MarttiSuomivuori]

I bought one on sale in Oslo, half price. My daughter thought it looked cool. I thought it might be a good deal. Now here's what: I use this bag every day as my primary everyday bag. It is light and spacious. My 15" MBook Pro fits nicely there. There is a nice pocket for your portable phone. Another, sneaky one for your passport. Your keys hang in on there. It is unbelievable how much stuff it can ingest! The latch is very handy and all the zippers are the best quality available. This is the first time a bag got better with time. Yes, it does work with the origami space separators as well. But WTH should I only use it as a camera bag as it is such a brilliant and versatile design. In your marketing, you should aim for intelligent people. It is one hell of a product. If only the phone pocket could also accommodate a boarding pass and a wallet as well, it would be perfect.

[@telecastersRthebest]

You really thought of everything for this bag! I hope you release a similar bag but in a backpack form factor. Love all your accessories!

[@peakdesignvideo]

+JB Gimena Stay tuned! ;)

[@VedantChandra]

The just released four new bags, including a backpack :)

[@gordonociao1231]

A great refresh on EDM playing with insert placement to work with all my gear. You guys ROCK!!

[@patdurr]

Awesome video! Thanks for the bracelet... I mean tripod band! :)

[@BatistaR0X]

Missed your KS. Gonna wait for TEM 2.0

[@allkite]

Can't wait to get mine!

[@syee99]

One design element I thought they should have adopted was a slightly wider base. The bag is very prone to tipping as is , and with the tripod added on, it will almost certainly tip over. A wider base would have added a bit more stability when left standing freely.

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Shawn Yee Thanks for your feedback!

[@DrowningInTea]

Agreed, it's the number 1 reason that prevents me from buying this bag.

[@techyourself5977]

Can you guys do a video for the v2?

[@stefantotev]

Got mine today and after playing around with it for few hours I've discovered myself almost all of the tips in this video. However I have a 1dx and it's not very easy to setup a lot of scenarios. The problem is that the bottom of the bag is a bit smaller than I hoped. If someone from the team is reading this, it'd great if he/she could give me some suggestions about carrying the body with lens attached (like 70-200 2.8) and 1-2 other lenses.

[@kenlee2030]

Wonder if you guys could show a set up with a DSLR and battery grip?

[@peakdesignvideo]

Not sure we have pics, but does work!

[@Wmu5]

Great Bag! Love it. Peak Design is a great company! PS Please make a "Lens holder" for Olympus micro 4/3 lens please. I have both Nikon an Sony ones and love it! I hate using an adapter on them for Micro 4/3 lens! Thank You! (Been promoting the hell out of you guys here in Shanghai at the Camera Mart) (I even have to pay slightly more for your items then in the USA but don't mind! It's great!

[@RoyBlumenthal]

Wow! That is one exceptionally well-crafted piece of amazingness! Damn! Thanks for the vid. Do you have any idea if a Wacom Companion 2 tablet would fit in that laptop sleeve? Preferably with its slipcase.

[@peakdesignvideo]

11x8" is about the max size for the tablet sleeve

[@alistairnitz]

Hi there. Love the look of the bags. I had a cycling accident and now in a wheelchair. It is likely that I won't walk again. Grateful for advice on whether I should get the messager bag or go for the new backpack (20ltr). Any advice?

[@peakdesignvideo]

Hey! this bag makes a better lap bag than the backpack, so if that is how you are looking to use, would recommend this one

[@zzang50]

The bag looks great! Do you think it will fit my Sony A7ii + 55.8 with a vertical grip attached?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Jason Yoon sure will!

[@Jefryl]

Very useful video. Question : did the strap lock supposed to slide down with minor pressure even it in locked position?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Jefry L there is no actual "lock" on the strap and with the slippery nature of the webbing it may slip a bit over time, but a quick adjust will get you back to where it needs to be

[@Loonie1029]

What was the name of the wax you recommended? Thanks!

[@james.hermida]

Great video. Is there a weight limit when using the capture pro on the side of the bag to prevent any sort of damage to the material? Also, would you recommend against using the capture pro on the main strap itself?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+James Hermida Capture can hold up to 200lbs of force and side strap should hold up to any camera you throw at it! And you can certainly use Capture on the bag strap itself, but may be less stable than on the designated area

[@NiKogane]

Love this bag, I'm really considering about buying ! Is there a further possibility for a "backpack mode" ? Side question here : what tripod is this ?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Nicolas Kogane This bag cannot go into "backpack mode" but we may be working on some other bags that would accomplish this for you :) The tripod is a 3LT Brian

[@NiKogane]

+Peak Design Video Thanks for your quick answer ! I look forward to it :)

[@Minoltalphafan]

With the proliferation of mirrorless camera systems and their downsized lenses, Peak needs to make a smaller version if this bag, like by half.

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Minoltalphafan We are working on a smaller version as we speak! Sign up for our newsletter for updates --> pkdsn.com/newsletter

[@NMMala]

Sorry for my English skill. You should make your next bag change the strap side easier.

[@HKPICTA]

Any word on an Ash coloured option for this bag, like the backpack with the little tan leather finishes?

[@peakdesignvideo]

stay tuned... ;)

[@HKPICTA]

Peak Design Video good news!

[@tatts4life838]

What size bag is in the video? I'm debating getting either the EDM 13" or your 20L backpack. The bag in this video looked a little big for my needs though.

[@peakdesignvideo]

15"

[@meghan4720]

Is this a review of the 13L or the 15L?

[@krazykw93]

Would a simple rounded, 600ml plastic bottle fit on the side pockets?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Kenneth Willim really depends on the Diameter of the bottle

[@krazykw93]

Lol, got my bag 2 months ago, and it fits everything I need. If you squeeze the bottle hard enough, it fits haha. Love the bag btw, can't stop using it!

[@DavidVogt]

My body is ready.

[@JJRosasPhoto]

What tripods do you guys recommend to use with the bag?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Jose Rosas We use 3LeggedThings and Amazon Basics travel tripods, but any tripod will work!

[@carlowolfboy]

what wax can we use again?? thanks

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Jose Liwanag NikWax :)

[@mmeyer1952]

+Peak Design Video which one

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Michael Meyer TX.Direct will be the best choice

[@mrdevinci781]

where can i get the tripod? I just received my bag today with the bundle :)

[@peakdesignvideo]

+mr devinci the tripod in the video is just an Amazon Basics tripod with a PD sticker :)

[@mrdevinci781]

Thanks but I do recall one of your employees doing a video with gentleman and he got that tripod almost similar to that from another company I'll have to look it up on the KZbin thanks anyway.

[@peakdesignvideo]

+mr devinci 3leggedthing makes tripods similar in look and we often have those as well

[@Robp787]

I want one, but I carry my dslr with a 70-300 fitted, 3 other lenses, nd filters, tripod, extension tubes, and other bits I don't see it fitting in this :/

[@armaniusmaximus]

Is it possible to squeeze a water bottle in the side pockets?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+armaniusmaximus Smaller diameter ones yes, or ones that are flask shaped

[@JohannesTeichert]

what about the laptop compartment? I thought it had in the back a zipper that could fit a laptop!

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Johannes Teichert it sure does!

[@lav3nd3r09]

Any chance for these new products to be available here in the Philippines?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Tyrone Daroca Yes! We have retailers in the Philippines! See here for more info: shop.findingsgroup.com/pages/peak-design-retailers

[@lav3nd3r09]

Yes I've seen your products in person before, but like this everyday messenger bag. When will it be available here? Thank you! More power!

[@lav3nd3r09]

One of the stores just replied. It's now available here in the Philippines. It sells for almost 15, 000 Philippine peso, Didn't expect it would cost that high. Just gonna wait for it to drop its price. hehe but awesome product! I'm inlove with it! :)

[@Elmercuaton]

Hello what's the name of the camera clip on the side of bag. thanks.

[@peakdesignvideo]

Capture Camera Clip

[@TorIvanBoine]

Does a 15" macbook pro non retina fit in the laptop slot?

[@TorIvanBoine]

***** why of course?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Tor Ivan Boine 15" MB Retina is max size of Laptop it will fit

[@TorIvanBoine]

Aww. No buy then until my next laptop

[@MarttiSuomivuori]

yes it fits

[@JustRockFilms]

What type of tripod is at 18:20?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Nathaniel “JustRockFilms” Farinas 3LeggedThing

[@gatysm]

does the capture clip come with the bag? Is there any way I could fit my 15.6" lenovo laptop inside? Thx for your reply!

[@peakdesignvideo]

+Julien Herrero Capture is sold separately and max laptop dims are 14.35"x9.82"x.95"

[@armaniusmaximus]

Is the material used for the interior compartment resistant to water? For example, if I place a cold water bottle in there and it starts sweating, would it damage the interior?

[@peakdesignvideo]

+armaniusmaximus The interior fabric is not water resistant, but some sweating from a water bottle should not cause damage to it

[@dkphoto.]

빨리 받고싶어요~ +_+

[@stevencraigmoss8252]

okay so I am pissed because I LOVE MY BAG and yes I have a full blown addiction to bags and heavy academic loads so I also have those bags I go though like water... not will last until this bag ITS A MUST HAVE... so why am I pissed?? I have a charcoal bag.... didnt know it came in the color featured in the video and I am uber pissed it took me months and dumpster diving for pop cans to afford this bag. WHere can I get this color does anyone know of anywhere I can look for a discounted bag? I will not rest until it is MINE!!! You are a fool not to purchase this sexy piece of manbag you see in front of you right now. I will chase after any pick pocket/bag theif like a rabid dog if they tried to steal my baby. I have to take a cold shower now. The bag, very simply put, is the shit. Do it. I did... I am even gonna get the other color. Because I swear peak bag was made on mount olympus by the Gods! *Drops the mic*

[@peakdesignvideo]

Check Ebay :)

[@paxcaeli4894]

please buy a better microphone

[@SaurabhBeedkar]

Seriously! Could you guys not afford a mike?

[@peakdesignvideo]

Thanks for your feedback Saurabh, as you will see from our more recent videos, we have significantly improved our production quality since the production of this video. We pride ourselves that all of our collateral is produced in house, over time, we have been improving our offerings.

[@SaurabhBeedkar]

Peak Design Video true that!

[@widebody2010]

it's your product so a better presentation was in order. seemed to stumble around too much. otherwise seems to be a very nice bag. cost more than i can afford.

[@Luna23tic]

Uhh, and Umm, ahh, and Uhhh. For such a great product ahh, you'd think Umm, you'd ahh take a little more time into uhh hiring someone that knows how to umm do a proper ahh presentation to uhh sell a product...

[@peakdesignvideo]

Alternatively you could have the lead designer of the product present what he knows better than anyone. ;-).. ummm possible?

[@ericdfelker]

I liked hearing from someone who was integrally involved in creating the bag, rather than a talking head. That said, the sound quality could/should have been better
