I finally found a small Camera Bag for my Nikon Z50ii designed in Germany
After a very long research I have finally found a small camera bag with a perfect fit for my Nikon Z50ii and standard kit lens. It also fits with a NIKKOR Z DX 12-28mm f/3.5-5.6 PZ VR mounted on the body!

This bag is perfect for travelling with the Nikon Z50ii camera body with just one lens attached to it. With space for a charger, battery and spare SD cards. Let me show you various ways and lenses you can fit in this Cullmann top loader camera bag. And what it looks like wearing it on your waste or over your shoulder cross-body.
Benefits of a top loader compact camera bag for the Nikon Z50ii
Rapid “Lens-First” Access
The camera sits vertically with the lens pointing down and the handgrip facing upward. Unzipping the lid gives immediate access to the Z50 II’s deep grip, letting you grab, shoot, and put it away in seconds without fumbling with internal dividers.
Protection Without Unnecessary Bulk
Unlike standard rectangular shoulder bags or multi-lens backpacks, a holster bag tapers toward the bottom. This snug form factor eliminates dead space, providing padded protection that easily fits inside a larger daypack or travel bag when needed.
Ideal for Compact DX Zooms and Prime Lenses
A top loader accommodates the camera with a lens mounted and ready to go—whether that’s a pancake zoom like the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm, a wide zoom like the 12-28mm PZ, or a fast prime like the DX 24mm f/1.7.
Versatile Carrying Options
Most compact top loaders feature three wearing styles: a shoulder/crossbody strap, a reinforced top carry handle, and a rear belt loop. Using the belt loop keeps the camera stable against your hip, preventing the bag from bouncing around while walking or traveling.
Dedicated Accessory Storage
Small zippered pockets on the exterior or under the top lid provide dedicated, safe storage for spare EN-EL25a batteries, SD cards, lens caps, and microfiber cloths without scratching the camera body.
