On-the-go with the Niko Camera Sling 3.0

The Niko Camera Sling 3.0 is the newest camera bag release from Chrome Industries. Marketed for urban, on-the-go photographers, this bag has a revamped design with plenty of organizational features.

The Niko Camera Sling 3.0 has a cross-body strap with a quick tightening and releasing system allowing fast access to your gear. It’s set up to be worn either as a sling-style bag across your back or as a waist belt (think of it as a hard-core fanny pack!). The main compartment is fully customizable with movable partitions so that you can set it up for whatever gear you’re taking with you.

Pros

  • Clean design, unassuming look as a camera bag

  • Tons of pockets

  • Top zip opening for easy access to your gear

  • Two-point adjustable shoulder strap for quick tightening or loosening

  • Lifetime guarantee

  • Weatherproof

  • Adjustable straps on the bottom allow for portable tripod attachment

Cons

  • The belt is too thin, could be thicker and padded for more comfort. I don’t see being able to wear it comfortably for long periods of time, especially around your waist.

  • The buckle is metal which can clang on things and also potentially be too easy quick release
