Camera Bag recommendations?

RealtorRichie — Wed, 01 Apr 2015 20:46:18 GMT

I just purchased a 6D, 600EXT Speedlight, 16-35 f2.8l, 24-70 2.8l and 70-200 2.8l. Can someone please recommend an appropriate camera bag for my equipment? I'm leaning towards a messenger style shoulder bag. I want it to be inconspicuous, weather resistant, padded and durable. Please help.

I have a similar list of gear, and I use and personally recommend the ThinkTank Retrospective 30. I believe it would meet all of your requirements.

I have a Domke bag (the biggest one they make) that I've been happy with. It's reasonably convenient and practically indestructible.

When I don't want/need such a large bag, I use a Canon bag that B&H sent me as a freebie when I bought a camera from them last year. I wasn't expecting much, but I was surprised at how nicely finished and well laid out it is. It holds my 5D3 body with a 24-105 f/4 on it, a 16-35 f/4, a 600RX speedlite, and all the batteries and filters I could need.

When I need to bring along the 70-200 and/or a sceond camera, I have to use the Domke.

I also recommend Think Tank. They have a top quality bag for everything.

BTW, that is some outfit. WOW, if that won't do it, it can't be done!
