itoncool Posted January 9, 2008 Share #21 Posted January 9, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) I use Crumpler for my Leica and SLR, it's a good bag, great protection, soft padding, great material and nice looking too... But, even though it's not a big deal, to me the material is too thick, great for protection but the more 'efficient-protection' like Domke, Billingham, or that Artisan & Artist bags seems nicer for Leica (I don't own them, I really like the Artisan & Artist bags look). Crumpler is still a great bag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchs Posted January 10, 2008 Share #22 Posted January 10, 2008 I use to carry a Domke F5xb (who knows...) M8 with 28 attached, 21, 35,50, cv15 and either a 90 or a 135. Also 4 batteries, a 1.25X magnifier, a GEPE safe card with 8 SD's, a Philips sd card reader, a sharpie, a moleskine, etc... Usually my wife's handbag is larger. When moving lots of equipment (M8 and SLRs), I fit the Domke inside the central part of a gigantic LowePro Stealth 650AW, together with another M8 body, extra lenses, sometimes an M6 body, one or two DSLRs, more lenses, chargers, wires, a 15" macbook pro or a 17" powerbook, more chargers, more wires. ed a Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hector_jorge Posted January 10, 2008 Share #23 Posted January 10, 2008 For years I used to carry an R camera and two lenses (28 and 90) in different shoulder bags like Billingham, Leica, etc. Now I have 2 Loewe backpacks, one small and other a little bigger, that seems to be more comfortable because they doesn´t slip from my shoulder so easily like the shoulder bags.The negative side is that you don´t have easy access to the gear but my DLux 3 is ever ready in one of my pockets.

meatboy Posted January 11, 2008 Share #25 Posted January 11, 2008 Professional photography equipment - camera bags, camera cases - from Think Tank Photo These look great IMHO from the outside. But I'd like to see what the inside is like?? I am looking for something real compact to carry one M body with lens attached and one other additional lens.

robert_parker Posted January 11, 2008 Share #26 Posted January 11, 2008 I've used a CCS Brownstone for some time with my DMR / R9 combination - the bag is compact and practical, having a handle and a shoulder strap and I lke the snap lock buckles - I seem to be able to get plenty, for example flash and spare lens (as well as a DMR power supply) in it, too.

pierovitch Posted January 12, 2008 Share #29 Posted January 12, 2008 I keep plugging this brand but It is the only bag that has not dissapointed in the last 30 years. It works for hiking with waist strap or extra pouches removed and waist strap hidden for social occaisions. TATONKA - Produkte, Outdoor, Rucksäcke, Zelte, Bekleidung - Die Qualitaetsausruestung fuer Freizeitaktive There are very well padded and rugged interior storage pockets where many popular makes cut corners. Nothing has dropped out and accessibility has been well thought out. Leica should adopt it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_reinierv Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share #30 Posted January 14, 2008 I bought a think tank 30 it is actually a bit too big for a M8+2 lenses, but it allows me to also carry some food and other stuff to work, also de D200 would fit in it and you can take the photo equipment section out so it is versitale in use for me. I liked the many small pockets to store small stuff and papers/etc. And there is a rain protector inside as well. Also it feels like very good quality and doesn't look like a photobag... I have been looking at many bags in the shop and really wonder what these manufactures are thinking. Nowadays you carry many small stuff like batteries/memorycards/filters/shunhoods/caps/etc with you and they all seem to think this stuff should be loose in one larger pocket.

Angora Posted January 14, 2008 Share #31 Posted January 14, 2008 Nice buy Did you try the Urban Disguise 20? I got this one and can fit an R6.2 + 2/3 lenses in the main pocket, plus others if needed in the side pockets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gylee Posted January 14, 2008 Share #32 Posted January 14, 2008 I use Crumpler for my Leica and SLR, it's a good bag, great protection, soft padding, great material and nice looking too... Apologies for the OT, but I am amazed at how far this little Australian company has come. I purchased my first Crumpler bag in 1997, when they were still making all the bags at a little workshop in Melbourne - they used to say that they would make a bag out of any material you liked, if you sent it to them. It was a cycle courier bag, and I still have it, and use it regularly. It's been around the world several times, takes a licking and keeps on ticking...

imported_reinierv Posted January 14, 2008 Author Share #33 Posted January 14, 2008 they didn't have the 20 on stock allas would have been nice to compare but the 30 suits the needs very well btw it is not the urban disquish, but the change-up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angora Posted January 14, 2008 Share #34 Posted January 14, 2008 Oh the Change Up, yeah I guess this model is equivalent to the 30. That's pretty big for a M8 But if you want to fit some more equipment or food, it seems to be the right choice. I also plan to buy a Speed Belt, for trekking or works requiring duck positions (where the shoulder strap makes the bag unstable). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
