As a new dad, I rarely have both hands free, so having a bag that is perfectly accessible with just one hand is fantastic! The 6L sling has just enough room for all of my EDC essentials and I never leave the house without it.

I bought the Sling because I found a backpack too heavy for my back (I have back issues). The Sling was great choice and I added a Capture to carry my camera on the outside. This gives me plenty of room for lenses and accessories. Such a quality product at a very reasonable price.

I got the 3L to use as a daily carry for small items, including my Fujifilm X-T2 with 28mm pancake lens (or sometimes the 35mm F2). I was looking for something compact...and this was definitely that...but in the end, after adding more stuff to it that I normally carry around daily (wallet, metal straws, reusable grocery bag, wipes, hand sanitizer, small battery pack, sunglasses/reading glasses, etc.) I realized it was a bit too small for my needs, so I ended up selling it to get the 15L Zip.
Having said that, I really liked the bag for its solid build quality and materials. In hindsight, the 6L probably wouldn't been better for my needs because I always want to carry a camera around...but then again if I started to stuff that with some weight, I wouldn't have liked it all on one shoulder anyway so that's why I went with the 15L Zip in the end.

A great bag for holding a mirror less camera and an average size lens. The woman in the promotional video is some kind of Marie Kondo wizard for fitting so much in it. I have no such skills. But I still like the bag.

This is my third peak design bag. I love my other two so much, that it was a no brainer to order this when I needed something smaller for day trips with my new (smaller) mirrorless camera. I also wanted something smaller that would still hold my camera and a 70-200mm lens. The everyday sling is now my go-to when I want to bring a camera and one or two lenses on short trips.

I already own different types of Everyday Sling series and i'm happy with it. One of my favourite is Everyday Sling 5L V1. All Slings are so adorable and convenient for everyday use. Practical and stylish.

I've never typically been a fan of slings. However, I am a fan of Peak Design. I've had an Everyday Backpack Zip for a while, but wanted something a little... less? After hours of watching YouTube reviews, I finally settled on the Everyday Sling V2 6L. Turns out, this is the exact amount of space I need for my iPad, x100t, a6400, 16mm + 18-50mm lenses, Cuff and Leash straps, and a sleeve of filters. I guess extra batteries and SD cards for each, too. I'm truly impressed, both by the quality of this sling and the amount of thoughtful design present here. Also once again blown away by the utility provided by the included dividers - they really allow you to make this bag your own. I guess what I'm trying to say is this is yet another home run for the PD team. Exactly what I was looking for in a sling and I'm thankful I stepped out of my comfort zone for this one.

The 6 L sling in blue is the best bag I own. It's a gorgeous/ luxurious color that makes it stand out in a classy way. The design is modern and functional. There is plenty of space for a camera set up and it's all super protected. One of the only downsides to the heavy padding/structure of the sling is that it doesn't allow for the natural stretch that a normal non-padded bag can do to accommodate extra items or awkwardly shaped items. It also means that when the smaller pockets are occupied they make the main compartment smaller. Most conventional(unstructured) bags have outward facing organization pockets that expand away from the main compartment. For example my Sony A7 will fit in the main compartment alone, but if I put my ipad into the tablet slot the camera no longer fits. So keep in mind that this is a perfect camera bag first and an EDC carry second.
There are some greatly appreciated upgrades to the previous generation of sling including the improved zippers and the shoulder strap no longer inadvertently elongates. The addition of the 6 liter makes it much more functional than the previous gen 5 liter. The sling feels indestructible.
If you are into this style of sling I cannot think of a better bag. It's so beautiful it makes me want to use it.

I have the 3 liter version and I am very satisfied with it. I needed something like a small backpack to transport my film cameras and this was the one for me. Being the smallest version, it doesn't fit too many things, but I use it to carry an Olympus OM10 with its 50mm lens, an Olympus Infinity Stylus and a couple of film rolls and batteries.

The quality is excellent as usual.
I managed to squeeze in Canon R5 (detached from lens, sitting in the middle), Sigma 35/f1.4 Art with with R adapter (from the left side), Sigma 85/f1.4 Art (from the right side) and Canon EX-RT600 flash (on top). This is basically what I was looking for, I just wish it was little bit more spacy. 10L is too big for my needs.
R5 attached to RF24-70/f2.8 can't fit in vertically.

This was a game changer. The 10L size forced me to edit my stuff a bit more than i wanted but it is just a wonderful piece of equipment that allowed me to carry the necessities and walk/bike with quick and comfortable access to my gear. I carried andOlympus EMD Mark III with one lens plus two more, an extra layer and various accessories. Very comfortable. I arranged the velcro so that the two extra lenses were on the bottom and the camera on a shelf which left about 60% for other stuff. The geometry also allowed me to put a capture clip in just the right spot for rapid, easy use. The front pocket initially seemed too narrow to fill with stuff but I quickly adjusted to the ease of keeping thing stuff there and bulkier in the main bag. This was so wonderful that I actually didn't use my Peak Everyday backpack for most of the summer. Sometimes i wished it were 12 or 15L but that would defeat the purpose. I have a Peak backpack when I need more space.

The best sling/shoulder bag I have ever used. It's pricey, but it's equally good, comfortable, and versatile. The quick-adjuster and internal stretchy pockets are very handy. Dividers allow different ways to organize your camera gears. I was looking for a small everyday bag to carry a single DSLR body and 1 lens, so the 3L was the perfect choice for me.

Solid bag as usual by Peak Design. Very firm and stiff bag to prevent accidental dings.

I have a Fujifilm x100v that I like to carry around, along with a charger and extra batteries, a small notebook and a few odd and ends. This is perfect for that use. If I were to improve the set-up, it would be to add an optional water bottle holder to the side clip options, a place to put pens that is easy to access and deeper battery pockets inside.

The 6L Sling.. It's honestly quite difficult to find a better bag that meets my needs. Small, light, easy on the eyes, water resistant, priced fairly and most especially, convenient. I have multiple cameras both digital and film. I literally go out and shoot on a weekly basis. Sometimes twice a week. I actually need a bag I don't get tired of quickly. The Sling 6L is that bag which is actually keeping me on the street through it's ease of use. Thanks PD.

After buying the 3L and absolutely loving it I decided to buy the 6L. Both are small, discreet, and compact, with plenty of space for what a bag of their respective sizes should be able to carry.
In the 3L, I'm comfortably able to carry my Canon F-1n, an additional lens, some film, a 3x5 booklet, and some camera accouterments; a lightweight tripod fits cozily at the bottom, and fastening it tightly with the easy-to-use straps means it won't sway behind you.
The 6L a little larger, though it doesn't feel it can fit the above, as well as my Rollei (showing how much extra space the extra 3 liters net you). The bag's addition of a tablet pouch is also welcome, as it means you can take your work with you on the go (or a book for the subway).
To that end, the 6L feels more like a day bag where the 3L feels like a project bag. If you know you're only going out to take photos and that you won't need a ton of gear, the 3L is your best bet; if you're going out to take photos AND run errands, do work, or vacation, the 6L presents itself as the much more versatile option without being imposing.
The one addition I'd love to see in a v3 would be a strap that secures the bag from under the arm ( la "Chrome" bag). When I bend down, the bag will sometimes slip, not by much and it won't fall off but enough that it can get in the way. A simple clip under the arm would definitely stabilize it. I also loved the inside color on the v1: Maybe some more options in the future?

I had the V1 sling as my daily use bag for some time...so when V2 was announced, I knew I had to have it. This is an upgrade for my usage in almost ever way. The exception being the top flap zipper pouch being smaller and having smaller pouches. This caused me to change up some of how I had the bag organized, and I'm still giving it 5 starts because I use it daily and it's a fabulous bag.
I carry my tripod and. various attachments for my camera, a water bottle, my iPad Pro 11" (with Smart Keyboard) wallet, keys, and spare batteries/chargers with me every day in this bag and there's still room to spare. I love this bag and look forward to buying V3 when it comes out, because I'm sure Peak Design will continue to find ways to improve it further!

I have the Peak Design 5L sling and it is fine for my DSLR with a short lens (35mm) and some small essentials. I love the everyday sling because it is a nice looking bag that does not look like a camera bag. I did miss having the ability to carry a longer lens too (and that front compartment on the 5L is near useless), but I did not want anything as big as the 10L (anything that large and potentially heavy with gear and I might as well use my backpack). With a recent upgrade to mirrorless I bought the 6L to see what it could fit. I was really pleased that adding just one liter was enough to fit my Nikon Z7 with 24-70mm 2.8 S lens attached (hood on backwards) AND a 70-300mm F-mount (hood on backwards) with the F-to-Z adapter attached to the lens. The fit is perfect; I can still zip and unzip with one hand and I still have room for small essentials -iphone, wallet, spare batteries, small squeeze air blower and one lens filter. The fact that the bag stands perfectly upright when set down is wonderful.
The only complaint I have is the strap padding. It changes position when the straps are shortened/lengthened and so if it is adjusted to fit on the shoulder in one length the padding moves and is off the shoulder in another length. I have had to adjust it so only a quarter of the padding is on my shoulder in either the long or short length but it is comfortable enough.
Other than that it is the perfect low-key camera bag.

This new version of the 10L makes it easier to use that whole volume. The expansion of the previous one was neat, but made some of the space harder to make good use of.
I'm able to fit more of my bigger things in this one, and that's great. The double zipper for the main pocket is also a very welcome change, along with the improved friction fit of the straps. My one nitpick is that the top interior zippered pocket (for SD cards and things) is a regression from the previous one. The pockets seem to eject what I put in them a bit easier, and the pocket is a bit shallower. Still a great pocket, but it's not as good at organizing my little things.
Definitely an improvement overall, and the best sling bag I've ever owned. If you have a bunch of small things to organize then you may need to get a little organize for them, but expect this bag to hold a lot of things very nicely and to last a long long time. I'm very happy with the bag and would absolutely recommend it!
