Need a New Bag Guys!

[mata.morrison]

Well the time has come and I need a new bag... Had used an amazon brand backpack which was great but now its just lost all shape and the straps are getting a bit ropey.

Looking for a messengers style over the shoulder, really like the Thinktank retrospective 5... But no way can afford that kind of money! So anyone got anything similar at a seriously reduced price? I do like canvas...

redsnapper has a couple of canvas bags, as does or at least used to 7dayshop. or buy a cheap canvas bag from ebay and a camera insert

Hi Matthew

Lowepro do a messenger style bags and certainly worth a look - I would check to make sure you can get your gear in them, especially after using a backpack.

7DayShop do their own canvas messenger bag, I got one a couple of months ago as a mid-sized bag for when i want some gear with me but not all of it Good sized compartment, space for iPad if needs be, raincover, tripod straps, plenty of pockets for miscellaneous stuff. It might not be Billingham quality but it certainly punches above it's £27 pricetag What gear are you hoping to put in it? I can comfortably fit a D700, 35-70 2.8 and 70-200 2.8 in with space to spare

Thanks for these guys will have to take a look later, yea gear-wise... Gripped 60D, 24-70 and a 70-200 + flash gun is all I have these days so not a lot of gear really.

i had a small one when i had my fuji xe1.. was perfect to carry it around all day and enough space for a few extras in there.

I've got a Domke F2 if your interested?

 

[scottinfocus]

^^I'd get that Domke from vala while you can, I love mine and could never part with it! why would you sell it?!

 

[vala]

Selling it along with all my DSLR gear.
Was thinking I'd be getting a Fuji XE-2, but opting now for a X100S.

It's a great bag and if I had the need for it, it would definitely be staying!
