About Billingham:

Billingham are a family owned company, manufacturing camera bags for the world’s photographers since 1973 alongside a range of leisure and laptop bags. All bags are made in the West Midlands area of England, a region famous for manufacturing. A core reason for Billingham’s longevity is the fact that from the start, the Billingham family were determined that their products would always be made to the very highest standards from the best available materials to provide high levels of protection for their valued contents.

A notable feature of Billingham camera bags is that they are made from a distincive 3-layer waterpoof canvas that never needs reproofing. They also feature genuine top grain leather and solid brass details.

Like any premium product, the quality of materials, design and craftsmanship that goes into creating a Billingham means that it represents a significant investment. It’s important that they don’t just look beautiful, but that they do their job of protecting equipment wherever they are and whatever they’re being used for – year in and year out.

I have used Billingham bags since a prototype I purchased in 1976, at a Photofair in West Bromwich Town Hall hosted by Smethwick Photographic Society. I sold it in 1989..My current bag was purchased in 1990, and has done sterling service as a camera bag or as an overnight bag throughout Europe, the Middle East and parts of Latin America. It has never let me down. The 72 bag is a specific purchase for my recently acquired Leica Q2. It is already a good friend.

Product was as advertised. Delivery was prompt and without incident. Customer Support, as always, is very good at fielding any questions related to my purchases. They certainly help me to decide. As I have had no problems at all with any of the three bags I have purchased, I have not had to return anything for a repair.

I took a Hadley One on a trip to Dubai in May but it was a bit cumbersome, don't get me wrong it's great for a big holiday with all the camera's that go with it. But I wanted to travel light for a quick week away. When I got back I found the Airline stowaway and fell for it hook line and sinker, I found a nice second hand but the strap was a bit short. I contacted Billingham and Mel put me right on it, bought it straight away just it, love. Perfect.... Thankyou Billingham and Mel keep kicking out high end beautifully made bags.

I actually wanted a laptop bag that could double as a photography bag if required. Having a 16’ MacBook the Eventer Mk2 was to small. In the end I opted for the Hadley Pro Large. It’s overkill for the main purpose. The laptop is reasonably well padded in the bag although it must be said that there is no padding in the base. My main issue is that you have to unfasten the buckles to open rather than the top handle and there is no zip protection for the main compartment. Again this is based on my intended purpose for a laptop. As a photography bag it is very good, accommodating a full frame DSLR with 2.8 24-70 lens and 70-200. Both front pockets volume can be reduced with by a press stud fastener and easily takes a SB900 flash head. The quality of materials is as expected for a Billingham which is excellent. Purchased direct in sage, the bag has had a fair bit of use now as laptop/photography and an overnight bag with the insert removed. I would of liked the main compartment to have a zip closure to prevent ingress of sand/dust or keep content hidden from bystanders say at a wedding event like some of the other models. In the end the bag is trying to fulfil a large remit and on the whole it does this very well.

The best quality I have ever come across. Superb design with numerous practical sections for such a small shoulder organiser. Perfect for everyday and travel use. I will be looking at other Billingham products for future investments. I am so happy with this! Thank you very much.

I bought my Hadley Pro in 2005. Not only is it still in use but I can still get attachments that fit it! The end pocket AVEA 7 increases the storage available and allows an increase in kit without the need to buy a new bag. Happy customer.

Billingham is the best of both worlds: classic styling & rugged functionality. While I have some beautiful Oberworth bags, I find myself packing my Billinghams as my first choice almost exclusively. If you use a camera or just want an amazingly reliable everyday bag, you cannot go wrong with a Billingham.

This is the 3rd time I have used Billingham.co.uk to order a bag (two camera bags and a weekender), they've never let me down in terms of customer service and utmost quality. It is just one of those British companies that have maintained the highest levels in all departments and went from strength to strength. Don't hesitate - invest in one today!

This is my second Billingham camera bag, my first purchase was 20 years ago. It’s a delight to see that across the years, the commitment to quality and craftsmanship remains the same. The bag and strap are well designed, both aesthetically and functionally, and beautifully made, using top quality materials. The choice was easy. Well done.

Having purchased a Black Pedlars Hadley Pro with bright orange lining I was made aware that Billingham makes an insert set in the same bright orange. The colour match was perfect and the build quality was excellent. I just love the contrasting colours which make the finding of small black objects, thumb grip, spare battery, flash sync etc a doddle! Brilliant Billingham!
