Another bag thread!

[darkeeboy]

Sorry about another bag thread, must be this time of year the toggers get asked what they want for Christmas! Anyhow, I have a D7100 with 17-55 and want to take along my 70-300VR but dont want a huge rucksack bag as need to occasionally play with daughter on our trips! Anyhow, I initially saw the canvas messenger bag from 7dayshop, but that looks a little too big (?) and see that ebay has lots of canvas type bags for around £30 - anyone had experience of them? For example here

- maybe too small? or here

Paul,

Not tried those bag, but how about this one for a little bit more and better quality:

They also do the 250 which might be worth looking into.

Thanks Kev, funnily enough I did come across those earlier today, but actually liked the more retro style of the other ones, albeit not totally sure of their quality!
Cheers

I watched a video on digirev when they compared a number of bags and they had one of the cheap ones which broke easily. May be someone on the forum has used the ebay ones and will comment.

Thank you, the Uno looks great, and knowing how good their tripods are, I wouldn't have any hesitation in ordering one of their bags

I recently got one of these as didn't want to pay the high price for a Billingham http://www.etsy.com/listing/153694662/large-waxed-canvas-dslrslr-camera-bag-in Fantastic bag and build quality is exceptional. Took just over week to arrive from ordering.

I carry a gripped D7100, 17-55, 70-300 and a few other bits in a Think Tank Retrospective 7. Perfect.
