    Hey guys,

    A friend of mine is going on away soon and he wants a bag to fit his dSLR camera & 2 lenses in.

    I have no idea where to look as I've just got a digital camera, can anyone point me to somewhere which has these bags and aren't priced too high?

    He wants to spend cerca ~£30 but cheaper the better.:D


    Thanks for your help!:thumb:

    1st let him work out the style of bag that he wants.
    he can have a browse through http://www.lowepro.com/ & http://www.tamrac.com/ to get started.
    Then ideally he would get to see them in the flash to see if they really suit.
    & then you find the best price online & twist the local shop's arm into price matching ;)

    I spent 100 quid on my bag, and I see it as an investment (like my lenses) weighed against the 8 or 9 hundred I spent on the camera and lenses its worth the money to protect it.

    Incidentally the Lowepro that Lovah suggested is fantastic for the money (although I am a fan of crumpler bags)

    Lowe pro Trekker aw is a great bag which is a backpack style. great bag has a lot of room and good protection. i am under the impression that they make a micro version of this bag.

    I've just fallen in love with Crumplers "The Customary Barge". Anyone here know it, want to recommend it?
