The Ranger is my ultralight take on a camera top-loader, crafted for hikers and photographers who carry mirrorless or DSLR cameras with a lens attached. Balancing minimal weight with functionality, the Ranger starts at just 63g for the smaller version—which is even lighter than popular camera clips!

Moreover, The Ranger doesn’t compromise on protection. It comes with 4mm padding, and with its roll-top and taped seams it’s designed to protect your gear even in the worst weather. Additionally, my special magnetic quick-flip system allows for super quick access to your camera: unroll the roll-top only once, then the lid is kept securely in place by magnets. Now you only need to flip up the lid to shoot—no zippers or buckles to slow you down.

This ultralight camera bag uses two metal carabiners to attach securely to your backpack—for example, between your shoulder straps or to your hip belt. You can upgrade to include extension straps if necessary and make use of the multiple attachment points to configure your carrying system to your liking.

Bringing a larger camera or longer lens? Choose the “Custom Bag” option to input your camera’s dimensions for a tailor-made fit. If you need additional features or adjustments, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to accommodate your needs.

FIND YOUR SIZE

The Ranger Camera Bag is designed to fit a DSLR or mirrorless camera with lens attached. Measure your gear to figure out the right size. If you use a tripod plate or L-bracket, install before measurement.

Leichtmut Camera Bags are designed to be as light as possible, allowing you to conserve energy and stay focused on capturing the perfect shot.

What this means:

  • Made with high-quality ultralight materials like Challenge Sailcloth’s Ecopak or the premium choice of Ultra 100 X, offering an exceptional balance of being extremely light, yet incredibly strong and durable.

  • Equipped with 4 mm padding, our tested sweet spot that provides just the right amount of protection without adding unnecessary weight.

  • Don’t waste any weight: We are happy to make you a custom-sized camera bag to perfectly fit your gear.

Leichtmut Camera Bags provide strong weather protection, keeping your gear safe from rain, snow and dust.

What this means:

  • The Rolltop Closure is designed for three rolls and thus forms a strong barrier against water entry.

  • The external fabric is fully waterproof. To prevent water from sneaking through stitch holes, all external seams are fully taped. To further minimize any risk, we designed the outer shell with as few seams as possible (consists of two pieces only!).

Note: While the rolltop provides excellent protection against rain, it’s not designed for submersion.

The rolltop is designed to be unrolled once you clip in the camera bag or get ready to shoot. Then, our magnetic quick-flip system offers both instant access and sufficient protection on the move. 

How does it work?

  • Magnets clip both sides of the rolltop together. When you fold the rolltop down, another magnet holds it securely in place.

  • To access your camera, simply lift and open the folded-down lid in a single movement.

Good to know: The rolltop height is carefully designed not to get in the way, even when the bag sits in front of your chest. 

You choose how you carry your Leichtmut Camera Bag, thanks to multiple attachment points and two included carabiners. 

Recommended Carrying Options:

  • Clip between your shoulder straps for instant camera access.

  • Attach to the side of your hip-belt to take off your backpack without unclipping the bag.

  • Hang it off the side or front of your backpack when you don’t need immediate access.

Integrated Handle
Use the closed rolltop to carry the bag when it’s not clipped in (or an extension strap between two attachment points)
