Afternoon all

I now own to many lenses for my current camera bag (I think thats a good thing :lol:), and was wondering if anyone knows of some good reasonably priced bags.

Have an A200, 18-70mm Sony jobbie, 35-105mm Minolta, Sigma 100-300 and The 'Beercan'.

Thanks for any help.
 
Like you I own an A200 and also have two lens, I bought an Nike shoulder bag today and its superb, it's NOT a camera abg though, but has a decent ammount of padding, plenty of zipped pockets both inside the bag and outside, another plus is it's waterproof, all this for £14.50 in TK Max, superb ;)
 
Depends on the kind of photography you do. I personally like a back pack (I have three different sizes), but many people like shoulder bags ... owch .. makes my back ache just thinking about it ..... too many years carrying school books.
 
I use a Burton Zoom 28l. This is about the cheapest I've foudn it.

It is fully waterproof and built to withstand a lot of abuse - I managed to rag doll it down a red run in the Alps and landed smack on my back - had my D200, 70-200mm, two flashes and a 18-70mm inside. Not a mark on them thanks to the hefty amount of padding.

I has entry through the rear (the bit against your back) which is good for security and means if it is peeing it down, you can put the wet front part down ont he floor and acess your gear without everything getting wet.

There's a padded laptop section that comfortably takes my 15" Macbook Pro and it comes with fleece-lined battery pockets to keep them warm (to hold the charge better) and has a few security pockets for memory cards, wallets etc. It has a big water/flash pocket on the side, two deep side pockets for random items, pockets on the waist straps, a front pockets that expands (it's designed for a shovel but carries magazines, clothing etc), a carry handle on the top, plus really good lumbar support for long hikes.

I snowboarded with it fully loaded (bar the laptop) for three days and never once felt tired or awkward. Another good thing is the removable camera pouch that converts the backpack into a regular sack.The removable pouch comes with a load of dividers that can be taken out and repositioned thanks to velcro.

All-in-all, this is THE perfect bag for my photography; loads of space, amazing build quality and offers brilliant protection for expensive kit. For £65 it's an absolute steal

I can second these snowboard packs, I use the Dakine sequence (competitor to Burton), also a great pack and I do not even board.
