Product Features in Detail
Billingham Hadley Pro
REMOVABLE PADDED INSERT
The flexible padded insert is made from dense, fabric covered, 'closed cell' foam and provides impact protection on all sides, including the lid. Like the bag itself it is flexible front-to-back to allow it to 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 can also be removed to turn the bag from a camera bag to a casual messenger bag in seconds.
FRONT DUMP POCKETS
The front dump pockets are perfect for cables, film, spare batteries and those little bits and bobs you want to keep separate, whilst providing great extra storage space.
On the top-outside corner of each pocket is a pop-clip. Release this to expand the space available. Keep it closed to form a perfect place to clip pens, pencils etc.
REAR ZIPPED POCKET
The rear of the bag has a zipped pocket and is ideal for slim papers such as maps etc. The zip is protected by a flap made out of the same 3-layer waterproof fabric as the bag.
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 sling is compatible with the SP15 and SP40 (recommended) shoulder pads – not included.
'QUICK RELEASE SYSTEM' FRONT STRAPS
The stitched, top-grain leather front straps have the 'Quick Release System' feature. Simply slide the straps up-and-off the brass 'clogballs' at the top for quick and easy access.
Once the leather softens and you become used to it is likely that you'll be able to open the bag one handed while wearing it.
The buckles allows you to fine tune the 'fit' of the front pockets. You do not need to use the buckles to open the bag.
TOP HANDLE
An easy carry top handle is reinforced with fibreglass, allowing you to pick up and carry the bag without using the shoulder sling.
The reinforcement has the extra benefit that it stops the bag bunching as you pick it up.
ADD AVEA END POCKETS
Increase storage by attaching any one of our optional AVEA End Pockets to the side patches.

SCULPTED TOP FLAP
The sculpted top flap helps prevent rain, snow or unwanted fingers getting into the main compartment. It is made of the same 3-layer waterproof fabric as the rest of the bag.
DISCRETE AND SLIM
The discrete styling of the Hadley Pro means that it doesn't look like a camera bag, which is ideal for travelling without drawing attention.
The bag is naturally flexible and moulds to the body of the wearer. Its slim body makes it a great bag to weave through crowds with.

HADLEY PRO VS HADLEY PRO 2020
The Hadley Pro and Hadley Pro 2020 have the exact same internal padded insert and can therefore carry the same amount of equipment.
The difference between the two camera bags is that the Hadley Pro 2020 has the following upgraded features:
- Removable shoulder sling
- Luggage trolley strap on the back
- Leather underneath the top handle for added comfort when carrying
- Improved weatherproof zip on the rear document zip pocket
- Unstitched front straps
There are minimal external dimension differences due to the different shoulder sling fixings on the Hadley Pro 2020.
