Post the links / pictures / whatever of the camera bag you have!

What's your experience with these? Anything you dislike and like about the one you're using?

I am using a "Sack" that is typically, not a back pack. It goes over your shoulder. It only can fit like one lens, my camera, and the flash. And of course little things, but no more lenses can fit into it. The thing I hate about it is that it's quite heavy when you have it "over the shoulder" and it's not the most comfortable thing. I am finding myself using a little backpack I got, just to do me if I was going out with just my cam, I don't have to carry this "sack" around. I'd also like a backpack in the summer, so I can bike ride, and have my camera with me.


I need a backpack, but don't know much about these.. I'd like it to hold a tripod, (Assuming most of them do?)

I don't want to be spending like 500 dollars on something so simple. lol. If you catch my drift. But I do want a decent one.

This is all my camera gear , so I don't need anything HUUUUGE either..

Hey Chantale,
Try out the Crumpler backpacks. They're pretty stylish and don't attract attention because they don't look like camera bags =)

Ben

By combining these two i get the ultimate camera bag

The one I just bought (You can see it in my "gear" picture) works brilliant and was such a great price from Blacks Photography store.
It's the "Blacks signature bag" and was reg $69 got it for $49 Boxing week sale.

Holds EVERYTHING I have.

YEah, yours did look nice Spencer I was looking at the ones at the camera store here, nothing is under 100 bucks, I think they over price a lil bit.

Ty for sharing, haha, go Etnies!

I have a crumpler bag for the reasons aquaphire listed and a kata rucksack for when I need more stuff or I am going for a hike.

Kata bags are awesome, light, confortable and super durable (can't vouch for them enough).
Kata is actually a company that makes combat armor for armed forces...

haha thanks for creating a thread about camera bags because I am so going to need one in the near future as well. Maybe I can buy your old one? lol JK

Awhile back when I just bought my old 40D I was looking at different bags at the stores in Stockholm and found a few both good looking and seemingly useful bags. Personally I prefer backpacks and shoulder bags because they usually look better and are easier to carry around.

This backpack looks nice and it seems you can put quite a lot of stuff in it and it's quite cheap:

This shoulder bag looks awesome but I am not sure if its big enough for ya and if you really want a shoulder bag at all.

I have seen threads about camera bags in thephotoforum from time to time so maybe you can do a search or whatever there and find some useful info
