Which size fits your load?

Size Typical Carry Why Choose It
4L Compact mirrorless + small prime, wallet/phone, a few extras Stealth street/travel; light and fast
6L Body + 1–2 lenses, filters/mic, tablet via the dock The everyday sweet spot; balanced capacity + comfort
9L Body + 2–3 lenses or longer zoom, 13–16″ device w/ WANDRD case, tripod/bottle One-sling solution when you don’t want a backpack

What early reviewers & creators like

  • Comfort & stability: padded strap + multiple adjustment points keep the sling planted while moving.
  • “Outdoor-worthy” build: weather-resistant materials; durable reinforcements.
  • Device carry that isn’t a hack: the 6L/9L dock pairs with WANDRD laptop cases to handle real devices (up to 16″) alongside camera gear.
  • Smarter externals: pleated bottle/tripod pocket, two exterior mesh pockets, and three grab handles for quick moves.

Community debates (aka, the bag-nerd corner)

  • V1 vs V2 pocketing: some miss specific V1 details; most prefer V2’s access and strap update.
  • Strap symmetry: still asymmetric; comfort is better, but quick shoulder swaps remain a personal-preference thing.

Bring your kit: a 4-step in-store test

  1. Dial the fit: set the 5-point adjustment and try the stow-away lockdown strap; feel the stability.
  2. Device check: drop your tablet/laptop (in its sleeve) into the dock; confirm clearance/comfort.
  3. Tripod/bottle: load the pleated pocket + bottom straps with your actual item.
  4. Organization: use the mesh pockets, SD slots, key hook, and AirTag pocket to see if your smalls have a home.

Looking Glass take

Rogue V2 keeps what we loved—real kit capacity without a backpack—and makes daily use comfier and more secure. If you’re a light traveler, the 4L is joyful. For most photographers, the 6L is the “just right.” If you’re the one-sling, no-backpack type who wants tripod + laptop + camera, the 9L is the move. Bring your kit and try it loaded; hands-on tends to settle the internet debates fast.

To Sum It Up: Sizes, Features & Use Cases

Choosing between the 4L, 6L, and 9L? Start with how you actually shoot. The 4L is stealthy for street/travel with a compact body and prime. The 6L covers most creators—room for a body, 1–2 lenses, audio/filters, and a tablet via the patented dock. The 9L is the most versatile one-bag sling: it can take a full-frame body with multiple lenses, a 16″ laptop (with WANDRD case), and a tripod or bottle in the pleated pocket, with lock-compatible zips for security. A padded strap, airmesh back panel, and thoughtful adjustment points help it ride comfortably for long days.
