I've always wondered who the luxury tech market appeals to. As a former struggling student, budget-conscious creative, and ex retail employee of a second-hand game store, saving money or shopping refurbished has been a top priority for as long as I can remember.
Don't get me wrong, though. I can certainly appreciate a high-end brand aesthetic and quality craftsmanship when I see it. And right now, I'm absolutely drooling over Fujifilm's limited-edition camera bag collab with luxury German manufacturer, Oberwerth.
The two new camera bags up for grabs are the Momentum (L) and the Weekender Nelson (M), which will set photographers back a minimum of £699 and £1,049, respectively. You could argue that these designer bags are just as expensive as treating yourself to a new camera or lens, but that doesn't stop me from wanting one any less.
Handcrafted in Germany from the finest materials, Oberwerth camera bags are designed for photographers, creatives, and travellers who seek exceptional quality. According to Fujifilm, the bags exude refined elegance and offer a timeless design that will become a lifelong companion (with a lifetime warranty).
The partnership between these two brands also demonstrates shared values, prioritising a passion for photography as well as Fujifilm’s heritage of iconic design and technological excellence, paired with authentic craftsmanship.
If you can afford one of these new camera bags without taking out a small loan, check out the Fujifilm x Oberwerth special editions below. Available to purchase online or exclusively from Fujifilm’s House of Photography in Covent Garden, London.

Another brand we love and highly recommend at CB is Harber London. Known for its quality leather tech accessories, handmade by expert craftsmen in Spain. Just like the Fujifilm X Oberwerth collection, these products aren't the cheapest. But if you can afford it, the quality is exceptional, just look at this leather desk mat our Design Editor is testing.
Peak Design offers products that are created by photographers, for photographers. I've been using Peak Design tech accessories for a few years now and the quality is unwavering.
I've had my eye on the blue version of this luxury shoulder bag for about 7 years now (I wish I was exaggerating) and have still never taken the plunge and bought one.
