Billingham Launch New F/Stop Bags
The new f/stop range from Billingham has been designed for those occasions when you want to travel light, but without compromise. The f/stop bags provide you with the level of protection, style and craftsmanship you’d expect from a Billingham, but in compact form that allows you to adapt them – inside and out, to suit your specific needs. The f/stops come in two sizes; the f/2.8 and – in keeping with lens f/stop convention – the larger f/1.4. Both are available in Black FibreNyte with black leather trim and nickel plated brass fittings or their most recent combination; Khaki FibreNyte with chocolate leather trim (see picture above). The f/2.8 bag retails for £149.99, while the f/1.4 model can be had for £159.99. Both are available from JP Distribution in the UK.
Billingham Press Release
Billingham Launch New F/Stop Bags
JP Distribution is pleased to announce the f/stop range of camera bags from M Billingham & Co.
The new f/stop range embodies that unique combination of tradition and innovation – the hallmark of a Billingham camera bag. The latest addition to the range has been designed for those occasions when you want to travel light – but without compromise. The f/stop bags provide you with the level of protection, style and craftsmanship you’d expect from a Billingham, but in compact form that allows you to adapt them – inside and out, to suit your specific needs. These surprisingly spacious bags are ideally suited for modern digital or film equipment – from compacts to SLR’s – even with their lenses attached.
The f/stops come in two sizes; the f/2.8 and – in keeping with lens f/stop convention – the longer f/1.4. Both are available in Black FibreNyte with black leather trim and nickel plated brass fittings or their most recent combination; Khaki FibreNyte with chocolate leather trim.
Naturally, the f/stops provide the same high levels of protection as Billinghams’ other products courtesy of a 25mm thick reinforced foam base and wrap-around side padding.

I want one, but not at full price. Yes, Billingham make nice bags, but so do many other bag makers - Kata for instance, and I have their DR-467i ruck sack which is superbly made. To my mind this small bag is probably only worth around £90GBP or £100GBP tops and not the 150GBP I have seen quoted. I will wait untill the price levels off before buying one.

Well, I'm happy to say I bought it in the end from Morris photo. I paid £109GBP inc VAT and next day delivery. I bought the shoulder pad from Speedgraphic for £21 and received both the bag and SP40 the next day.
Billingham have done it again! The bag holds my 5d with attached 24-105 on its heel and hood in place very comfortably, and if I reverse the hood there is room for my Sigma 50mm 1.4 as well. Amazing bag. Like the Tardis, with all the quality you'd expect from Billingham and I raise my hat to them. I am one well pleased customer.
