Camera Bag Suggestions - 12-29-2007, 05:56 PM


I bought my self a new Nikon 70-300VR lense for Christmas.
This is my first real lense - besides the kit lense that came with my D40x.
Now, my camera won't fit in the old bag and I need suggestions.
I would like to spend around $50-60 and would prefer a backpack style.
Please give me any advice or suggestions you think I need.

Thanks in advance!

Tiffani,

I own 3 bags. I got all 3 sight unseen in the mail. All 3 are ok. All 3 could be better. I wish I had purchased bags in person. I know it's something of a trek for you to get to any of the DFW stores, but it really is best to buy a bag in person. Especially a backpack style bag. No matter what it does to hold your equipment, if it doesn't fit you like a glove you will hate it.

Just my $0.02 worth.

Although I am a dedicated Internet shopper
I'll second the buy it in person advice.

I bought a Lowepro Stealth Reporter D550 yesterday.
I never even considered that model until I picked it up at HCE yesterday.
