PRODUCT REVIEW: VIVITAR DKS-20 CAMERA BAG

People are always asking me what brands I travel with, since I’m always on the road, on a train, a bus 🚌, or in an airport. Well, I’ve got my various Canon cameras, GoPro Hero 4, and lenses, as well as my 15-inch Mac Book Pro. I need a bag that can fit it all.

Introducing my Vivitar DKS-20 camera bag. It just traveled with me from Florida to Dubai to Beirut, back to Dubai, and on to New York. I carried it on with me, checking in my other backpack. Camera equipment is too fragile to check-in, as you know.

Originally, when I asked for a Vivitar bag, I asked for the largest one. Expecting a refusal, I was pleasantly surprised by their awesome representative who replied to me almost immediately and apologized for not having the bag I requested in stock, but that he would gladly send out the next one in line. I was so stoked!

So, when I got this DKS-20, I was amazed at the space within and it was more than enough for all of my stuff. It had me wondering just how big the one I originally asked for, is! 😂🙏📸

Let me show you this incredible bag in the medium I communicate in best: photos. 😁

Look at that! Two complete kits I keep together, a fisheye, my laptop and charger, my point and shoot, GoPro, three battery packs, and a flash.

This might be my favorite pocket! It seems bottomless – I put my easy snap cameras in it, pens, hats, chocolate, pens, glasses. It’s my true utility pocket, easy to access on the go. Flash sticks, a watch, and then in the netted pocket, there are various cables and chargers. Incredible!

The ‘meat’ of the bag where two complete kits rest, as well as a fisheye lens AND a flash!

The contents sitting outside to show the secure compartments. In the netted pocket, there are lens’ caps and memory cards.

When I travel, my beloved Ukrainian rushkin, protecting me on my travels, lies on top of my camera kits. Also, note the old film camera, I stuck in the net. For a project with a photographer in St. Pete, Florida…
