Is it the new version M Classic or the original Leitz bag ?
Had one of the original, and while loving it, there's some quirks to adapt with.

There is also a ThinkTank Retrospective 7 which is a bit more closer to the 10 than the 5.

It fits the E-M5, 75-300, 9-18, 20, 45 with cards, battery, etc. very easily. For me, the important thing is that there is still some room for wallet, etc. INSIDE the bag.

The lowepro event messenger is very lightweight - only 0.6 kg for the 150 model compared to a similar model like think tank retrospective 5 which weighs in at 1 kg. It's also functionally very well thought out.

However, the design of the cover flap with that slanted band plastered with the lowepro logo and ugly handle make the bag look stodgy. A real pity. I would've liked to buy this bag.

I went this afternoon in the look for a bag for my everyday gear, after going through various, think tank 10, 20, 30 , and crumpler bags, lowepro event messenger and pro messenger lines, plus manfrotto, the most comfortable, not big, and excellent quality, plus smart inside distribution for me, were the lowepro event messenger both 150 and 250 and the pro messenger 160aw since the 180 is way too big for me.

No i didnt bought anyone yet but i did tried the ones i mentioned for a bit while in the store, but for you to know im definitely going for the lowepro event messenger 250 or lowepro pro messenger 160, the difference? Honestly? The pro messenger seems more rugged that could take a hardcore use of throwing away drop it etc while the event messenger is more nylon, delicate,etc not saying weak though also on the event messenger theres a space for an ipad or a 13" laptop while on the pro messenger not, since its more of a photo gear only bag, while the event messenger more of a medium size gear bag plus everyday stuff (computer, pads, pencils, phone, etc)
Thanked by troll.

Also the main difference on the lowepro event messenger 150 and 250 is that the 150 is more of a m43 dedicated bag while on the 250 you can still fit a pro dslr in it and i still work with my ff gear.
