What's your camera bag and what's in it?

[baggiolee]

btw, i see lots of bros carrying Youngnuo Shutter Release. may i know the advantage of using this against the original infra red remote control from nikon? and what's the price like?

 

[eleveninth]

hey everyone... any recommendations for a FULLY WATERPROOF bag? looking for one that's the same size as a Large Timbuk2 messenger. gonna buy the inserts elsewhere. cuz i bike more than i drive, therefore it'll be more useful.

and forewarned! no plastic bag jokes

thanks!

Chrome bags?

Im using the Yongnuo Shutter Release because its cheap, however im using it on a canon body instead of Nikon. I paid about $10 SG for it, and the only problem with it is the remote shutter cord unseats quite easily.


And about the Fully Waterproof Bag, id say get a Timbuk2 classic messenger, In my experience(i walk through rainstorms almost everyday on the way home this time of year), they are totally waterproof, unless you overfill them, or throw them in a lake

So you promoting billingham or safrotto lol.

If one can afford just go for the billingham for better quality and assurance. Else you can try the safrotto but I feel accessing it can be a chore sometimes.

yes, i was thinking of getting a billingham or a safrotto too. but the flap thing kinda makes it harder to take things out or keep things. the kata dc-445 im using, the flap opens from nearer to body to away from the body. easier access if you get what i mean.

Loving this bag big time as it holds all my equipment outside of my Manfrotto 190XPROB tripod, 680 monopod, Cullman Magnsit ballhead, 2 Nano lightstands with umbrellas (am looking for a bag for these now), and a 5-in-1 circular reflector. The only bag better than the Tamrac Ultra Pro 13 is the Super Pro 14, which I'm having problems locating in Singapore.

Want to start a bag fetish society?

In addition to my Tamrac, I have

- CaseLogic backpack (http://www.caselogic.com/slr_camera...il/index.cfm?modelid=138052&productid=1357947)

- Lowepro Exchange Messenger (http://www.lowepro.com/exchange) - really not suited for the weight of the D700

- Crumpler 8 MDH (Vday gift from wife, needs to be seasoned as it's way too stiff)

- Crumpler Bunion Insert (great for stuffing into into a big messenger bag of my choice to transform it into an organized camera messenger bag!)

- ThinkTank Retrospective Lens Changer 3 (http://www.thinktankphoto.com/products/retrospective-lens-changer-3-black-shoulder-bag.aspx), which I use as a shooting bag than for actual transport

 

[simonseng]

LoL! Dun think that's advisable...many women (wives, girlfriends, boyfriends) will then know where and how we operate...we gotta keep our bag fetish a stealth operation to avoid the relentless naggings...LoL!!

Oh yah...btw...i have a confession....i just bought another bag last thursday...have to add it to my list...Lowepro ProRunner 200AW and used it once ytd and think its slightly too small...will probably get the 300 version soon to replace it...hahahaha

 

[ghoonk]

They should say. Most of them are bag and shoe fetish experts. My wife asked me why i needed so many bags, I asked her the same question, answer was the same - for different occasions mah!

I got itchy fingers, want to get a tamrac super pro 14 and a lowepro stealth reporter 550aw. Aside from the tamrac, every other bag was bought last week, so I can't push my luck!

 

[ghoonk]

Silas, by the way, you ever noticed that there's never a bag that's too big? Only too small heh

I've got bags that are too big, that's why I need to get different sized bags

 

[ghoonk]

How big is too big?
