Have you guys ever considered ThinkTank Urban Disguise 30? It's a camera bag that also doesn't look like a camera bag at all. I bought mine for around S$180. Please take a look below: http://www.thinktankphoto.com/ttp_product_UrbnDsgs.php

Thank you all for your reply. Have a great weekend ahead. :D

Dear All, Will anyone have advises on Macro lenses? I was looking at Canon 100mm f/2.5 macro or the Tamron 90mm f/2.8. Or, can you please link me to (maybe) previous discussion or reviews on this lens? Many thanks in advance. :)

Dear All, I am still an amateur in photography. Having lost my 28-70mm lens on my old EOS-10QD, I bought myself an EOS-40D with 18-55 IS kit lens. However, on the last photoshoot (last Friday in Chinatown), I discovered that my kit lens could not do much things. I could not get good bokeh...
