Nikon SLR mama's, what kind of bag ??

I am not loving the bag I got, and was trying to kind of shop around for another one.

What kind of bag do you have for your camera?

I've heard a lot of people rave about Crumpler bags. I think I'm probably going to get a 4 Million Dollar Home bag when I get my camera.

i had a tamrac velocity 7 sling pack and loved it. i'm selling it for $30 plus shipping if you're interested...EC.

http://www.amitymama.com/vb/talk-pho...ght=tamrac+bag


i upgraded at christmas to a lowepro sling pack bc i needed a larger bag (more equipment now.)


the tamrac sling pack was great for my camera body, 2 lenses and speedlight 600 flash plus some filters/extra battery.

Crumpler 5 million dollar home here too. Very nice bag and plenty big for me at the moment. I can even stick my wallet in there, so it has kind of become my purse. Never know when you might need to snap a photo!

I was looking at the Lowepro Sling Pac, because that's what b&h recommended to me.. but wanted to see what everyone here had and liked.

I'll have to check out the Crumpler's... do any of you happen to have a photo of your bag with your equipment in it?

Tracey~ which Lowepro did you get? Do you like it?
I'll have to checkout your Tamrac

I have the crumpler 4 mil, but it's a bit roomy for just the camera and one lens but not big enough when I want to carry more. I think I should have gone with the 5 mil, but that was a long time ago now and who knew!

i had the 4 mil and upgraded to the 5 mil...it isn't that much bigger but it is roomier for when you need to carry a bit more.

I have a Canon 30D and Canon set up but I have have a the crumpler 7 million dollar home and have ordered the Brazillion home to take on Wedding shoots. I love the crumpler bags. The best thing is they don't scream Camera bag so I don't worry about it getting stolen as bad.

If I decided to go with a crumpler, and wanted it to hold my D40, 2 lenses (probably a 18-55 & 55-200, possibly a 70-300), a speedlight and other misc. items... what size would I want?

So, what color crumpler does everyone have?
