Bag recommendation?

Babs · Jan 18, 2011

I've just treated myself to a sigma 10-20mm which has put my lens collection to 4 lenses + my canon 350d body. I have a lowepro nova 190 aw bag which has been good up until now but which I am starting to find limitations to. I want to start carrying more things like plastic sheeting for ground shots and my tripod now that I'm starting to find out what kind of shots I like taking. Not to mention being able to carry all my lenses plus the usual bits and pieces.

Any recommendations on a good bag or bags I can look at which will be good for the kit I have and be a little bit future proof too. Price is a consideration, but if it's something I can buy second hand, that would be ok too.

Thanks

This is an excellent bag for my d40, d80, and 4 lenses plus a canon s90 and water proof case. My tripod even fits in it.

Its missing sleeves for lens' which I didn't have many at the time so I didn't mind. But once I added a grip to my camera, it no longer fit in the top compartment.

I got a pink, leathery one that's pretty good. Came with the kit lens.

My wife is laying with her head in my lap when I opened this thread. I didn't even get a chance to finish reading when she yelled, 'NO MORE BAGS.'

I've only had it for 4 weeks, so I don't think I'm in a situation to give you a "durablity" analysis... but it is a very well constructed bag. Material is thick and heavy, good amount of padding. Lots of pockets, lots of storage, and its all adjustable.
