Camera Bag's... - Saxperience

Right with my range of equipment begining to grow my current bag is not big enough. I currently have a lowepro atlus 160 and it simply isnt big enough.

i have all my spare cards, card reader and battery charger wedged in the side compartment, body under the seperator and then i have my kit lens, cloth and power lead on top.

i have bought a new lens off gayer and am constantly looking to buy more equipment.

I really dont know whether to get a rucksack (currently looking at a lowepro mini trekker aw which is going cheap at the min) or just get a bigger shoulder bag?

i want a bag where i can just dip my hand in a pull out what i need there and then.

the only plus i can see with the mini trekker at the min is the tripod holder, apart from that maybe a shoulder bag would suffice?

what are your thoughts and any suggestions?

thanks

ive been meaning to make a thread about bags.

dont know what model mine is, but i have a small lowerpro rucksack. can get camera with lens on, 3 other lenses and a few filters in. thats all the equipt. i have.

that bit of it is fine. the problem is that the rucksack part of the bag is too small for what i want, as i tend to use the camera bag as my main rucksack when i go away

anyone know of any bags with a fairly small camera compartment, but with a large rucksack bit?

I need helpssss on this...

I need a bag big enough hold the following:

2x gripped DSLR bodies - with room for another (upgrade in a couple of months

)
a telephoto lens (25cm long)
two wide lenses (10cm long)
a prime (7cm long)

fuck then there is the flashes.
4 flash guns.

and then space for all the accessories...

any ideas?

mattchewone · 30th July 2008, 17:50

At the minute i have a slingshot 200AW i can fit one flash, the DSLR with kit lens on, 70-300mm slotted in and the 50mm slotted in. There is space for one more i think.
Pockets for batteries, cards, cables, manual and catcus's.
