About the Product

The Messenger DNA is the first major addition to the iconic Tenba Messenger collection in over seven years.

The DNA 13 from Tenba is a versatile messenger bag that can hold a mirrorless camera with 4-5 lenses. or a DSLR with 2-3 lenses. The camera and lenses fit inside a removable padded insert in the main compartment, and a tablet and laptop up to 13" store inside padded pockets on the bag's interior.
