Roberu Compact Camera Bag

I love bags like this for their individuality and good looks. Nothing beats the look of leather as it is used over time. Roberu's Tannin camera bag fits a wide range of camera models, is tannin dyed and oiled, has aged hardware and strap. Bags of this quality are always a great investment.

Built Cargo Camera Bag

Built's padded camera cases introduced this past summer look fun and stylish. The Cargo Camera Bag, pictured above, is big enough to hold a range of SLR cameras and lenses, and includes padded dividers that you can adjust or remove as needed. It features an exterior with protective semi-firm EVA and neoprene, with the bottom incorporating additional padding to provide extra protection in case of hard drops. The Cargo Camera Bag is available in a trio of colors.

Also available is the Cargo Camera Bag Medium and the Soft Shell Camera Case.

I'm not a fan of neoprene in general but I do appreciate the design of the bags I see by Built.

Bowler Camera Bag

This is the camera bag du jour. What it lacks in practicality it more than makes up for in cutes.

The Bowler's dual zippered top is a cinch to use. Her side saddle pockets are super handy for doodads like cleaning cloths, memory cards, lens caps, tiny plastic dinosaurs ... etc. And, for the gal on the go, sturdy loops are built on the inside pockets for an (optional) shoulder strap.

Inside, the Bowler has an adjustable padded divider so you can pack any SLR nice and snug while still toting additional lenses. A quilted tri-cot lining keeps your camera extra secure.

Eagle Creek Scout

Last night while out doing some trend spotting, my 3 old son tells me blue Nike sneakers are cool, I came across some bags from Eagle Creek which I like. We have at least 1 Eagle Creek duffle which has served us well and I use their packing cubes whenever I travel. So I know their quality is generally top notch.

The Eagle Creek Scout looks perfect for city day tripping or for the traveller who doesn't need to carry their life on their back. It looks perfect for carrying a camera (it's padded), notebook, and a few gadgets and accessories. The side mesh pockets are great for your reusable water bottles and perhaps a small umbrella.

I think many people will like the ability to carry this on your waist, thereby freeing your shoulders and keeping you a bit cooler in the heat, but I always find that attaching anything to my waist causes my pants to fall down. Not the most pleasant experience in a crowd of people.

It comes in more than one color for those who think black is boring.

Camera Camera Case

We will have to appreciate this cute felt camera case as inspiration only as it's been sold out for over a year now. It was hand sewn of cotton, felt, and buttons. Perhaps you can convince her to make another.

Domke F6 Little Bit Smaller Camera bag

The Domke F6 Little Bit Smaller is a light and discrete camera bag made of heavy-duty canvas. It looks like a camera bag but it's size, fabric, and low profile doesn't scream tourist with expensive camera gear. Other than lasting you a lifetime the bag might allow you to slip comfortably into situations where the perfect photo opportunity presents itself. I like how it allows me to take just what I need without the usual overabundance of dividers, pockets, and slow to reach compartments.

More info. here or follow a discussion here. Also, The Gear I Stuff In A Domke F6 on flickr.

Tenba Photo/Laptop Backpack

Whenever I consider a bag like this I think about how uncomfortable it would be to carry all my gear on my back over long distances. I would refer to dump the laptop and be satisfied with a portable photo-disc and an iPod touch. But if you must carry a laptop, and it's nice to be able to present photographs to clients on a photo shoot, then the Tenba Gen-3 looks very promising.

... [It] offers easy-to-access, organized space for a full sized professional D/SLR kit with multiple lenses and flash, plus separate, protective storage for a laptop, including many 15” models. The bag includes movable/removable divider panels, multiple accessory pockets, a movable/removable accessory pouch for a phone or portable audio device, a wallet for flash media cards, and many other practical features. The Backpack also has a removable divider shelf between the top storage and the bottom camera compartment, to convert the interior into one large storage space--while still keeping the padded laptop sleeve intact.

I like how the front sections open to reveal their contents and the harness cover is very useful. They also understand the importance of a bright interior to aid in finding all the small objects that you carry with you. A video after the jump.

Brazillion Dollar Home SLR Camera Bag

I doubt they intended for it to be used in this manner but the Crumpler Brazillion Dollar Home slr camera bag looks like a great 3 day get away and/or carry-on bag. It should work well for me as I always seem to travel with a small laptop and slr body and lense. Other than this kit I tend to travel very light so this set-up should work well - especially with the front pocket to carry passport, tickets, and a notebook.

The Brazillion Dollar Home is designed to carry 2 slr bodies with glass attached, all the associated gear, and a large screen laptop. This much gear can be heavy so you have the option of carrying the bag as either a shoulder bag or (somewhat) as a backpack. This isn't a messenger so it will take actual use to determine wether using a shoulder bag is comfortable enough when carrying all this gear.

Made with water resistant 1000D shell, brushed nylon, 300D and ripstop linings. Very annoying oversized strap excluded the other slr bag from Crumpler I own, an older 5 Million Dollar Home, has proven to be a great investment. So I would expect that this will prove to be the same.

Repurpose your bags! You can purchase the bag for $390.00AU on Crumpler's Australia site which is regrettably one of the worst in the industry. The bags are worth it though.
