Camera bag options? DSLR, 5 lenses, (mabye laptop)?
right now im trying to figure out a bag to hold all my stuff:
D200 w/ grip
Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 VR
Nikon 50mm f1.8
Nikon 60mm f2.8 micro
Nikon 1.7 teleconverter
Sigma 18-50mm f2.8
laptop 15″
Right now I have a Nova 4 and its nice but it doesn’t hold my 70-200 or my laptop and the shoulder bag hurts my back, so im thinking im going to need a backpack
Lowepro makes great backpacks for camping, but their backpacks for cameras really suck in terms of shoulder straps and support
Any ideas anyone?
A Lowepro Stealth Reporter D650AW would fit all of that(including the laptop) quite comfortably.
It’s a shoulder bag, though, so may fails one of your other requirements.
It would be worth checking out, though, because it also has a waist strap that serves to distribute some of the weight over your waist. The waist strap isn’t enough to support the bag on its own, but for me at least it helps me to comfortably carry more weight than I could in a normal shoulder bag.
I can often carry 10-15 lbs of equipment in my D650AW, while I find 6-8 lbs to be a practical limit in the Nova 4.
By the way, i just bought the Nova 4 a few weeks ago. For what I bought it for, I love it, although I admit that it doesn’t replace the bigger bags.
