SOLD!!!!!

Thanks!


Yes folks I said NEW! This is a brand new Crumpler Farmers Double. They dont make 'em anymore. Due to an ordering mishap a few years ago I purchased two of these. I never took this one out of the bag (asside for the photo). Ive used the other one a ton. Fantastic bag. Check the review here for info on capacity:

I normally run my D200 with 17-55 attached and an 80-200 in the pocket. It will take the D200 with the 80-200 attached as well, just a tight fit. In the top of the bag is a laptop sleave. The bag is completely water proof, Ive spent a lot of time in the rain with it. gear came out just fine. Fits great under the "seatback in front of you" also.

$125 + shipping.

    Is the Farmers Double similar in size to the Crumpler Schrinkle?
    Great bag rband btw, very good price. I would expect this to sell very quick.

    No, it's bigger.

    roughly the same exterior size, but different design.

    B's HT and Schrinkle are both "rear" loading, with one big single compartment w/dividers for camera gear. The FD has two front loading compartments, and only the lower one has camera dividers.

    Here's a cambags review for you:

    also, the FD has been replaced by the Customary Barge, you can see that one at crumplerusa.com. Same interior design, newer exterior. dims and specs should be similar.

    Ahhhhh.. ic. Thats really cool. I didnt know Crumpler made those types as well. Theyre similar to the original Lowepro Trekkers then, but with a Crumpler touch. If I didnt already have a Schrinkle and BHT to fit all my crap into, this bag would make a great walkaround/hiking bag without needing to drop the bag just to open the gear from the back. Thanks for clarifying.

    Yeah, this bag is sweet. The way the bottom opens you can take your camera in and out without putting the bag down. which is nice...
