Billingham Hadley Small – Black Canvas / Tan Leather

• Made of a 3-layer waterproof material
• Real, full-grain, vegetable tanned leather
• Solid brass fixings
• Individual serial number
• 5-year manufacturers guarantee
• Made in England

A stylish but simple camera bag that will fit a small-to-mid sized DSLR or compact system (mirrorless) camera and 2-3 small-to-medium lenses. Still popular, this bag is the predecessor to the Hadley Small Pro. Made in England with 3-layer waterproof fabric and real leather.

Removable Padded Insert

The flexible, padded insert is made of dense, fabric covered, 'closed-cell' foam. Protection is provided on all six sides - including the lid. Like the bag itself, the insert is flexible front-to-back and can therefore fit slightly bigger gear than its dimensions suggest.  
2x vertical dividers and 2x horizontal flap dividers are included and can be attached anywhere inside with Velcro®.​ The Padded Insert is also removable, giving you the ability to turn the Hadley Small from a camera bag to a casual, messenger bag in seconds.

Quick Release Front Straps

The 'Quick Release System' leather front straps allow you to quickly and easily open the bag. Simply pull the straps up-and-off the brass clogballs to release. ​ ​The front straps are made of real, top-grain leather that are tightened when the bag is first made to help with the longevity of the leather. Over time, the leather will soften and with a little practice you will be able to open the bag one-handed, whilst wearing it.
The buckles are only for occasional fine tuning the fit of the main flap on the bag, you do not need to use the buckles every time you open your bag. ​

Need To Carry An Ipad?

The space between the padded insert and the back of the bag naturally creates a thin extra pocket that will fit an 11" iPad.​ ​Please note this section is only padded on one side so you may wish to use a slim case.​

Front Dump Pockets

The front dump pockets are perfect for cables, film, spare batteries and little bits and bobs that you would like to keep separate, whilst providing great extra storage space at the same time.​ ​On the top, outside corner of each pocket is a press stud. Release this to expand the space available, or keep it closed to form a perfect place to clip pens, pencils etc.​

Sculpted Top Flap

The top flap has been sculpted to help prevent rain, snow or unwanted hands getting into the main compartment. The flap is made of the same 3-layer waterproof fabric as the rest of the bag.

Discrete and Slim

The particularly discrete styling of the bag means that it doesn't look like a camera bag at all, which is ideal for travelling without drawing attention. ​As a slim bag it's naturally flexible and moulds to your body, helping you weave through crowds.​

Adjustable Shoulder Sling

The shoulder sling is made of strong, woven polyester and is adjustable in length to suit your height and shooting style.​ ​The shoulder sling is compatible with the SP15 and SP40 (recommended) Shoulder Pads. A Shoulder Pad is available as an optional extra. 

Hadley Small VS Hadley Small Pro

The Hadley Small and Hadley Small Pro have the same dimensions internally and can therefore carry exactly the same gear.​ ​

The difference between the two camera bags is that the Hadley Small Pro has the following extra features:​

• Removable shoulder sling​
• Ability to add AVEA 7 End Pockets​
• Luggage trolley strap on the back
• Top handle​
• Document pocket on the back

Any difference to external dimensions is due to the top handle and shoulder sling fixings.
