Camera Bags, what is best

[Krzys]

however since I always keep a very watchful eye on my stuff

I am more so bothered with people having a watchful eye on my stuff

I'd love a decent Lowepro or Domke bag if I had the money, but for now I see the logic in using a cheap reinforced bag so I don't know how much I'd actually use a decent bag if I had one. For climbing/hiking/walking a real photographers bag obviously beats out my junk.

I use a LowePro CompuTrekker. Has seperate compartment for my Laptop as well as room for all the normal stuff. Prefer a Backpack due to the weight of the gear and the walk from the car at some of the venues can be a bit of a hike. I have thought of a smaller bag and only carry what I need each time but the weight doesn't bother me and I like only having to grab one bag.

The wife bought it for me about two years ago and has taken a real beating during that time. Have been very happy with it.

I too have this Backpack and it is awesome. I like to take my laptop out with me on some shots and it provides a great padded compartment for it. The bag is very comfortable and has great support around the waist, chest, shoulders and back. Fits my 40D with 70-200 attached plus anouther 5-6 lenses. Adjustable compartments are very convienient. Highly recommend it!!!

I had my heart in saving up for a primus AW, as its the most appropriate bag for myself, but if im get bajillions of lenses not, i might have to have a rethink

I also use the Lowepro Slingshot 200AW. Quick access, very happy!

if you want to look a little less like a serious photographer i'd go for a crumpler. all have a life time warranty and are very well built.
Australian owned too. you can't go wrong!

I have a Slingshot 200aw, being a big bloke it fits better than an ordinary backpack .

The only issue is when you first get it you have to think about how to put it on.

Cheers pete

i got the slingshot 200aw and just recently the lowepro rover awii.... i bought the rover because i can't fit anything in the slingshot other the the camera gears whereas the rover aw, it have a big top compartment for extra things like light jumper, lunch and even have a tripod holder

I have to agree 100% with this. The Million Dollar Home series are great bags, so are their back packs too actually.

Although I do have a LowePro Toploader 70 (my trasher camera bag) for when I'm out with all my climbing gear and stuff since my 8 MDH will just get ruined and is too big to take it with me on those occasions.
