Camera bag for D70s; Slingshot 200 or Tamrac 9

[jean melissa]

Looking at purchasing a camera bag for my D70s. Lenses I will be carrying:

18-70mm kit lens, 50mm/f1.8, 105mm micro, and the usual extras. Anticipate a

lot of walking, bike riding, camping, etc.

 

Thanks! Jeannie

I have a Crumpler 4milliondollar home bag that will hold the camera with a lens attached and an extra lens. I just bought the Slingshot 200 and that held the camera with lens attached,2 other lenses, quantum battery pack, sb800, all of my cables, cards and accessories. It was perfect. I bought it because i ride a motorcycle and needed something that was sturdy and easily accessible when i'm off of the bike. It works like a charm.

Tamrac Velocity 7 I'd say. I own the 9, and it holds 2 bodies, flash, 3-4 short primes and a medium zoom. Big bag.

you might want to look athe the Tamrac Velocity 9. it will fit your current requirements and have some spare space for a bottle of water or so. i have one and it is pretty good, though the padding is a little less firm than when i bought it. but i have abused it pretty well.

I have the Slingshot 200 and am able to store a 350D with grip, Canon 70-200 f/4, Tamron 28-75, Tokina 12-24, 420EX flash and several small items in it. This setup is fairly heavy, but was easy to carry and all day on a recent trip to Paris with a lot of handling it in tight spaces (full Metro trains) too, where i just put it in the "belly position".

 

The only thing i did not like so much was, that it is nearly impossible to fit any kind of berverage in this bag.
