I have a Canon 100D bag. There’s enough room for everything: two lenses, camera body, side pockets I use for filters, my charger, etc. There’s even room for my tablet! My only problem is that its huge. I love it for storing my camera, but when I’m on the move its sort of cumbersome. I have a smaller bag that I use for photowalks. But my 100D is awesome.

I have the same approach for the camera as I have for the laptop: neoprene cover and a normal bag.
I have a neoprene cover from Zing that snugs my dslr + lens. It´s practical, minimal and still giving enough protection. Then I can just throw it in whatever bag I feel like using that day, being a ladie´s purse or a trekking backpack. Or I just hang it from my shoulder with the camera strap.
I had a waist bag from Lowepro which was very uncomfortable. I have a shoulderbag from Crumpler but I never use it.

Depends on what I’m shooting and where. I have all Tamrac bags. Cyberpack 8, Rolling Strong Box, 614, 613 , several 519′s a modular belt, plus a few others and two black rapid r-straps.
Camera bags and other carrying gear are like a women’s shoes…ya can’t have too many.

I carry about my stuff in a Think Tank Retrospective 30 and I have a Think Tank Retrospective 20 for carrying less stuff, like on a photo walk.
I love the Think Tanks because they simply look like a messenger bag – not a camera bag. They hold lots of stuff and are well balanced so it feels like less weight even after a full day of lugging your stuff around.

I also have a Kelly Moore bag. That is for family functions where you don’t need a ton of gear just the basics and places for your keys, wallet and whatever…I like that it looks like a tote bag it blends into the environment and people don’t realize you have a camera until you whip it out.

The Think Tanks are my favorite …I also have modified a Longchamp tote bag for when I want to be really inconspicuous, the reason for this love is its a tote bag that goes over your shoulder, stays in place and holds stuff without looking like a camera bag.

I spend a lot of time shooting in an urban environment and prefer that I not look like I am carrying photo equipment. Just a girl with a camera, or not.

I use a bikers durable backpack. Nobody knows theres a camera, with a Tamron Macro telefoto lens and a Tamron 11-18 wide angle lens. I just feel it is also waterproof.
