I am on RFF to keep from being bored to death.
What I really want to know is how good is the Domke F8 Rugged Wear bag? Can the goofy Domke label be removed without ugly-fying the bag? Will it hold two FE2 and one FM2 cameras?
Is it the ultimate bag?
Bah-humbug.

Dave,
Take a look at the bag on the Amazon site. Lots of pictures there. It doesn't look like it'll be big enough for three cameras. Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/Domke-700-80D-F-8-Small-Shoulder/dp/B000VJ3BZQ

as much as i like a good bag thread...can't help with this one...as i don't know that model...i will say that it looks too small for your purpose.
the f6 would be a better fit in the domke line.

I had the rugged wear f-803. I liked the rugged wear quite a bit, but the bag was too big for me (as I prefer to go small with something like the f-5xb). The rugged wear looks good, is durable, and can repel water.

Feed Your Head
If you want a Domke, I can attest to the amount of cameras that I have put in a F803 I have one and a copy of one. In bag A (proper one) A nikon D90 with kit zoom, Fuji Gs645s, a film slr with a 50mm, Nikor 35mm G lens along with film and loads of other bits. In the other are two Yashicamats a film SLR with 50mm 24mm and 135mm loads of film and a Minolta light meter. I have room to spare in each bag too. The bag you mentioned did look a bit small though, is there any place that you can try them out.

Boring, but then so are bag threads. Such is life.

Bags seem to be big this holiday season. I saw an article on fancy camera
bags in Shutterbug and also Professional Photographer magazine recently. I just buy one yet.

Yep, too small. I was thinking they had a medium sized bag. Well, they do have rugged wear bags in other styles/sizes.
I like the looks of the rugged wear but HATE that domke label.
F6? Need to check into that bag, thanks, Joe.

The 803 is looking pretty good...
But then, the 5XB may be more the size I am looking for.

i looked at think tank bags at our local pro shop yesterday. they sure seemed rugged and manly, made of fire hose canvas or something similar. tag is understated.

I have a Think Tank Retrospective 30 (pinestone).
Plenty of room for several bodies and lenses (currently OM2, OM3, 4 zuiko lenses and some small stuff, with room to spare).
It hangs rather comfortably, is rugged, resists dirt nicely, ... I like it.

My christmas present to myself this year was a Delsey Corium 05 genuine leather bag with enough space for my 3 RF bodies and 4 lenses.

Hmmm...all kinds of Army/Navy surplus bags like this and even messenger bags:
Prices from $14.95 and up! Colors in black, olive drab, khaki and camos.

I have the ultimate bag. If I'm taking more than one body with one lens I bring my bag. When I want a different lens I ask her for it and she hands it to me. She knows lenses by now.

I have this one in olive drab. It's highly modifiable, though I don't like the strap, so I will eventually replace that. Wish I could remove the insignia easily.
