I have been thinking about camera bags… How to get all of your stuff from point A to point B? I don’t travel that much by air, but I do need to get my gear around in cars, and when air travel comes up, you need something to put your stuff into.<\/p>\n
My biggest issue right now is the 70-200mm f\/2.8. I can just barely get it into my Lowepro FastPack<\/a>. The only way it will fit is attached to the camera, and then the body is pushing against the door. Not the best. It is a backpack, which I like, but if I am taking everything, it is darn heavy.<\/p>\n I have been starting to hear a lot about Think Tank<\/a> products. They look very well made, non-descript, and well thought out. A while back Matt Brandon reviwed the Think Tank Airport Security International<\/a>, and then just recently Scott Kelby reviewed the Think Tank Airport Security V2<\/a>, it’s slightly bigger cousin. These are very cool looking bags. If you could pick them up for cheap, I would run out now, but quality doesn’t come cheap, and we are looking over $300 for either of these. Yikes. It will take a bit more thought and saving before I bite.<\/p>\n Ok, on the sort of related category: I need to find a bag to hold my lighting gear. I am starting to collect lights, stands, umbrellas and other crap, and need\u00ac\u2020 a way to store and transport it. On the weekend, I emptied out my family’s 6 person tent bag and used that. Any better ideas? And, uh, $300 isn’t a round number that will fit this need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have been thinking about camera bags… How to get all of your stuff from point A to point B?
