The 48 hour camera bag

A new Kickstarter is aiming to deliver a new type of camera bag to consumers. It’s called the 48hr classic, and it’s already got full funding. The bag is taking to a new trend of trying to fill multiple niches: as such it acts as a messenger bag, a backpack or a briefcase. While doing all that, it’s trying to be stylish with a design that seems to harken back to 90s style brief cases of men who went to work in Manhattan.

It’s promising easy and quick access via the big pocket and can hold other things like a 15 inch laptop, and leather in addition to padded dividers. Plus it can expand to accommodate more gear or even act as a weekend getaway bag. It’ll retail for $268; and you can see the intro video after the jump.
