The perfect case for the M8

[jaapv]

We all know- each camerafanatic has at least 5 camera-bags. But which one is perfect for the M8? The problem with any RF camera is that the lens compartments are usually too deep. But this one was absolutely perfect. it even has an opening flap on top giving quick access to the camera and two extra lenses. Lowepro Omni Traveller:

My toe for scale 😀😀

Had that one in my hands as well today. Loved the look, but the dimensions were not what I wanted, more for SLR I thought.

Jaap - nice tip. I like it. Thanks. JB

Yep, the NG bag does look better suited for an SLR outfit. On the other hand, the Omni Traveller seems like a winner for my (rf) gear.

For my own purposes, I really do like the look of the National Geographic bags, but not their price tag.

First things first - take a trip to the army surplus store, as their bags should really last the longest, being military issue.

Here's mine:

Ideal for camera+lens and 2 or 3 lenses, plus battery, extra sd card, gray card, supplemental viewfinder, map, guidebook, passport and travel docs.

Looks like nothing on the outside.

Leica red on the inside.

A great walking around bag.

Woody, how does this bag differ from the Domke F-5XB bag?

Thanks,

Nope: I have one and its not convenient at all. It's much flimsier than the Lowe Pro and doesn't have good organization, extra pockets etc. Nice looking but non-functional.

 

[Ash]

Sorry, Fogg bags are disgusting. But knowing how the system works, they're probably the most functional!

Crumpler FTW

 

[truando]

Sorry, Fogg bags are disgusting.

*that's* a strong opinion...

give them 5-10 years of daily usage and they look great!

Domke F-803 satchel.
Elegant, plain, tough 🙂

This is my event bag

Slim, light ... the top has some rubber and repels water pretty well (at least it has for me when I got stuck in the rain a week or so ago) ... its nylon but it works really well when switching lenses

very comfortable shoulder strap
