Testing This Section to see if there is enough content to warrant its own area.

Also planning to include bag review threads and site map as well as a "show us your bag setup" type thread/gallery.

Im still up in the air about it... stay tuned.

Better add a section for tripods. The tripod question comes up at least once a week.

Show your tripod/head/camera/lens might answer questions for a lot of folks.

I like a separate bag section like this. Helps clean out some of the other sections. Heck, I may start a new thread.

I fell in lust this week with a bag and I thought of my friend Abel, who has quite a collection of bags. I then controlled my self and didn't buy it. NOW I am kicking my own butt, because I loved it. It was lightweight (but had padding, soft yet firm, durable, great looking but not girlie or too macho. It was made in England by Billingham. They had a couple of models that I thought would work. It was not cheap. But then nothing to do with photography ever is.

Good grief, why don't we set up a gun, drug & hooker forum. I'd be less addicted to that then a bag forum... Ack.

This is going to be brutal.

Even as a n00b to this place, I say +1 on the tripod section, but would that include monopod too
