Cheap Canon 200DG SLR Digital Camera Gadget Bag + Photography Accessory
great bag...but the latches are weak and do not hold all of the time. I am forced to try and find replacements for the plastic clips and use tape to hold closed while I am looking for them.

I bought this bag for my husband. He had a digital camera, lens hood, cleaning kit and zoom lens to carry and wanted a roomy bag. He has room in this bag for additional items if he should decide to expand his equipment. The other bags we looked at were either much smaller or the size of backpacks... this bag was just what we were looking for. I'd recommend this item, the value, to any of my friends.Best Deals for Deluxe Rugged Camera Bag / Case For Fujifilm FinePix HS20EXR
I just received this camera bag. It arrived quickly and was well packed and seems nicely padded in the interior with two pads that have velcro so you can place the extra padding where you feel it is most needed on the inside.The only reservation I have about this bag is the odd overhang of the top main compartment flap. The zipper is basically tucked under the lip of the cover flap. When it arrived the zipper teeth were not fully locked together on the rounded corner so I was afraid it might continue to pull apart. I was able to unzip it and it did rezip all the teeth back together properly but it requires careful handling. Nylon zippers don't like a lot of stress so I hope that it hangs in there. If the zippers hold up I think I will really like the various compartments and the style and size of the bag overall.

This bag is made to fit my Finepix, but sadly it doesn't. It is too narrow for a camera this wide, and too short for the long lens. The biggest problem though, is the poor quality. There is not enough material at the top of the case, so that the top half of the zipper is constantly being pulled over the top of the case. To zip the bag, I had to pull the zipper and material down so it would meet with the lower half of the zipper. After a couple weeks, both tabs on the zipper broke, so now the bag is useless since it can't keep my camera secure. I will never buy a product from this company again, since they are well aware of the shortcomings of their product, and refuse to correct them.Saturday, November 15, 2014
Discount Kelly Moore Posey Bag - Teal
I purchased this bag for myself as a smaller, cuter alternative to most camera bags. I wanted something that would fit my Nikon D3100, and maybe an additional lens. I read all the reviews I could find online and everyone cautioned about the smallness factor. I was concerned, but couldn't find a better alternative. I really liked the small size of the bag and the fact that I wouldn't need to carry around a huge camera bag, in addition to a purse. The Posey Bag would be both, and only the size of any normal purse. As soon as I received the Posey Bag, I realized my dreams of carrying an additional lens would not happen. I quickly recovered and moved on. Unfortunately, my biggest problem with the bag, is the flaps, which make the bag more "versatile." The flaps are constantly moving and opening, leaving my equipment vulnerable to anyone paying attention to my very open camera bag/purse. Or even vulnerable to falling out of the purse. I would recommend trying a different camera bag/purse combo, unless you are willing to deal with the cumbersome flaps.
If I were to buy a small slr, I don't think it would fit very well in this bag and its bulk would make it hard to use the outside pockets. So this camera bag is a little pricey for carrying around a point and shoot camera.
Since I bought this camera bag, she has come out with a replacement, Posey 2.

Plenty of room and padding for my camera body, 2 small lenses and a removable flash. Love the extra pockets for cards and keys, etc. Its not a huge bag, but that is what i like about it. Nice to be able to carry a beautiful bag that can function as a camera bag and purse.Best Deals for Kelly Moore Posey Bag - Teal
I bought the Kelly Moore Posey bag in teal because I wanted a camera bag that I could also use as a purse when not out shooting. First, I don't much care for the teal color. I belong to a photowalk group and use this bag which allows me to carry a small wallet and other essentials along with a Canon G10. I can easily pull it out of the bag while walking around and take some shots. In the side pocket there are slots for a ton of CF cards. I don't use these slots because I only have one card which is in the camera. I do like the extra pockets on the outside.If I were to buy a small slr, I don't think it would fit very well in this bag and its bulk would make it hard to use the outside pockets.

Case Logic Kilowatt KSB-101 Medium Sling Backpack for Pro DSLR Review
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This is an excellent camera bag! It has two main compartments. The upper one is approximately 6" tall, 6" wide and 5" deep, and the lower one is about 7.5" tall, 6" wide and 5" deep. There are also two very small side-compartments at the top of the bag, and each of them has interior mesh pockets.
The bag's upper main compartment has two interior mesh pockets and opens at the front. The lower main compartment has adjustable velcro'd partitions, and opens from the left and right sides, as well as from the front. Each of the lower main compartment's side and front flaps has either a mesh or zippered pocket.
The bag is roomy enough for a camera, a couple of lenses and a few smaller items such as batteries and memory cards, and they will all be very well protected because of the excellent all-around padding. You can carry the bag as a backpack, or configure the straps to make it into a rightor left-handed sling bag. The included weather hood will come in handy on a rainy day!
The product is precisely as described in the product description. You can indeed configure it three different ways. I personally found that the right sling position worked out best for me although I did try all the different ones and they all work quite well and allow easy access to your camera, lens and the other "junk" which we all normally carry. The camera fits perfectly and there is plenty of room, in my case, for two different lenses.
I love the special strap on the back which allows you to carry a tripod. The strap is stout and even though I use a very light tripod it is obvious that he pack could carry a much larger and heavier one.
I like the way that the partitions within the back can be reconfigured with little or not problem. The dividers are stout and well padded and held in by very strong Velcro fasteners which allows quick adjustments as needed. The pack itself is EXTREMELY well padded, which in my case is very important as I am a bit of a klutz and am constantly bashing into things. While I would not recommend throwing the back filled with equipment over a bluff or roll it down a hill side, I have all the confidence in the world that if you did as such the chances of your gear coming through the ordeal would be quite good.
The straps are very easy to adjust and fasten and are very, very comfortable in all configurations.
There is plenty of space in the top compartment to stash extra gear and it is very well padded. The outside, and indeed the inside of the back has quite a number of little pouches to store and hold smaller bits of gear. All in all this pack allows you to become extremely organized...something I have always had a problem with.
The zippers on this pack are heavy duty and at first you will find that they are a bit "stiff." After zipping and unzipping them a number of times though the stiffness leaves and they are quite smooth. The material which this pack is made of is quite stout and after careful examination I found the stitching to be very good. This pack should last for years of heavy use.
An additional feature, and one I most certainly appreciate, is the fact that the pack has a detachable weather hood which fits the pack perfectly and folds down to be quite small and easy to stash away in a special pouch on the OUTSIDE of he pack. I live in an area where the weather can change quickly and this is a real plus.
The pack is flat bottomed with a firm bottom and sets well and has a handle on top which makes it easy to carry if not strapped on your back.
This is an attractive and compact backpack which does the job that it was built for.

PROS
* Stiff enough to hold its own shape, so the bag itself will absorb (some) impact before things reach your camera
* TONS of padding inside--walls, cielings, doors, and even the compartment dividers
* Every last compartment divider is held in place with super-strong velcro that's repositionable, so you can adjust things to fit _your_ camera and _your_ lenses, to ensure a fit that's neither too loose nor too snug
* Has way more room than I need for my (small) DSLR and three lenses
* Tons of pockets for memory cards, extra batteries, etc.
* In addition to the top compartment, the main compartment can open from the top or either side, so you can choose
which you prefer (which may vary depending on which lens you're trying to retrieve)
* It's a backpack, so you won't strain your spine over time (though you do have the option to switch it to a sling if you prefer)
CONS
* Takes a while to figure out how to adjust the compartments. For example, my DSLR is on the small side, and I don't feel like I've identified the optimal way to arrange the compartments around it
* The label says there's a way to attach a tripod on front for even weight distribution, but I can't figure out how to attach the tripod at all... so this may be a usability/wish-it-had-more-instructions issue
NEUTRAL
* The zippers are a bit stiff and can require some focus to open or close... but that's because there is padding that protects the internal contents from hitting/scratching the zippers, so it's probably worth the hassle
* The velcro is so strong that it "grabs" when you're trying to reposition. BUT this means it holds tight once you have it in place, so this is an annoyance I can live with

I LOVE this pack. Everything fits in the pack, everything has its place, and being able to remove the camera from the pack through the outside zippered "door" is so convenient; no fumbling and moving other items to get the camera out. The interior is a bright orange, not black, so you can actually see the equipment with the contrast instead of it all blending together. The velcro partitions allow you to adjust the fit for your equipment to the bag. This easily holds my DSLR, telephoto lens, 2 small lens, and lots of extras (battery charger, cleaning kit, etc). Now, I can grab and go and know I have everything I need in one pack.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Case Logic Kilowatt KSB-101 Medium Sling Backpack for Pro DSLR
I love how many pockets and areas there are to put camera accessories in this backpack. There are dividers literally everywhere and it has excellent padding in between the compartments.

This is lightweight and is actually quite comfortable to use as a backpack. I much prefer it to the camera bag that I have used. So much more portable and accessible. I would highly recommend this.Tuesday, September 30, 2014

Reviews of icon Black Leather w/ Pink Stitching Digital Camera Case for Sony
I wanted a camera case that would work for my Sony TX-5 that would have a magnetic closure, so that it doesn't make noise when opening as I sometimes use the camera in a church or an environment where I don't want the velcro sound.
I love the magnetic enclosure and the Sony TX-5 fits length and width wise. The inside fabric in pink is nice and soft so that it wouldn't scratch the camera, but...
1. Only the flap is "leather" and not even sure if it's genuine. The rest of the outside is a fabric that may or may not be repel water. Material feels cheap and even looks cheap, not as nice as the photo.
2. The d-ring on the back is so small that my carabiner hook that I was planning on using to attach to a backpack or belt hoop won't fit through it.
3. It is thicker than the camera so it's bulkier than it would need to be if used for the camera only. I thought I would be able to put an extra battery in to use the space, but it was also disappointing because the slot for the battery is too small to put it in with the battery protector case and outside of the slot the camera would get scratched.
I was disappointed by this purchase and would have just rathered return it, but because shipping is so high proportionately and the effort to return so much compared to what I would get back, I will be keeping it. I will see if I can find a use for it...

This case is great. Very sturdy and is huge! This holds almost all of my boyfriend's paintball gear. The only thing that isn't in there is his mask. It holds 2 markers, 3 air tanks, and a couple other pieces. We did use the 2 layers of foam as 2 different levels. I would recommend these cases to anyone that is looking to store things in a strong case. It isn't just for camera gear or paintball stuff. I am thinking about getting another one for our remote control helicopters since they are that great. Mess up the foam? No problem they sell replacement foam. Which is great if you ever upgrade your gear that you are storing. You don't have to go out and buy a whole new case.**This case is so strong, we used it for another purpose. The seat back in our car broke (it laid flat down) and we needed something to hold up the seat while we bought a new car. This worked great! It took the beating and showed no wear!

Review of Kindofsmile Brown "Ever Ready" Protective Pu Leather Camera Case
This is a great case! The quality is good, the color is a little bit darker than the picture, but I just love it, It looks perfect on my camera and have received a lot of compliments!
I have the orange-y/tan (called brown) case. I considered the pink one (looks really cute) or the white (blingy) or black (steampunk/serious) but this was the most retro, original camera cases looking to me. It says it is pu leather and I don't know what that exactly means, but to the best of my knowledge, it is a type of leather looking vinyl.

This is a very well made bag, with a lot of attention to the details. It is still a tight fit to get both my SLR camera with lens attached, and another lens in the bag. This is with the use of the padded dividers. Without them it would be roomier, but the camera and spare lens would not be protected. The padded dividers have velcro, so you can customize the interior, which is a nice feature. There are 3 padded velcro dividers, however I could not figure out how to use one of them! So, I just left that one out. However, I found that trying to get them precisely where I wanted was a hassle. The velcro would stick too well and always where I didn't want it. At least once you have everything where you want, it is not something you have to deal with again.
The zippers are sealed against water, but this also makes them a bit stiffer to use. This may change with use, but it is still a good feature to have. The bag as a whole is very well padded and water resistant.
There are a nice variety of different size pockets to store memory cards, batteries, etc. There is a lens cloth attached inside one of the pockets. The straps are very sturdy and well padded. They can be used in a variety of ways: hang the bag in front, on the back or over the shoulder.
This bag is also designed to add on other small packs for additional lens. You can also get an attachment which turns it into a waist pack. If you are looking for a solid bag to protect your camera, this is a good product.

Initially, I felt this was an excellent quality bag. Overall, this is still true. The one faulty item was the pull tie on the zippers. I have had 2 of these come apart. I have adapted, but this was a bit disappointing considering the price of the bag.

Cheap Tamrac 5547 Adventure 7 Photo Backpack (Camo/Black)
This camera backpack by Tamrac is of the highest quality. It is perfect for what I need and use it for. I shoot with a Nikon D200 and when I want to pack a little lighter for a hike or some other outdoor adventure I only like taking about two lenses and a flash or maybe three lenses without a flash. This backpack can fit those easily and it has a nice sized upper compartment to put other things you need in it like a nice turkey and swiss on rye once you get to the lookout point! They also use a great system for your memory cards utilizing their red tag system so you know which ones are full when you are changing them out and your on the go. In my opinion you cannot go wrong with this backpack. I am extremely pleased with my purchase and I use it all the time.

I used this bag on my 12 day trip in Costa Rica. We went hiking and walking all around the beach areas and mountains. This bag was great. I agree that the waist strap is really not the best, and doesn't provide that much support. I was able to fit a sony a350, 18-70, 55-200, 75-300, and a 50 prime... along with some other battery/memory/cleaning accessories all in the bottom portion. the top part is small, but we put a couple small point and shoot cameras/ money/passports and other valuables. The top part is small but you can stuff a good amount in for a 1/2 day hike. Also, i cut off all the decals prior to going on the trip so that it was a more backpack. It is a smaller pack, and that's what i was looking for. Something small that couldn't get too heavy no matter what we shoved in it. I use it all the time now as my camera bag. i like it better than the more expensive sony bag.Best Deals for Tamrac 5547 Adventure 7 Photo Backpack (Camo/Black)

I love this pack, it holds all the gear I need for any shoot safely securely. It holds my Canon 40D with battery pack and 17-55mm lens, a 70-200mm lens, a 50mm lens, 430ex flash, x2 lens hoods, extra AA batteries, cards, charger etc. . . I would recomend for anyone starting out that doesn't have a ton of equipment they need at all times.Thursday, August 7, 2014
Reviews of Vortex Media Pro Storm Jacket Cover for an SLR Camera with a Extra
Had several other rain covers that seemed a little too bulky. Got this rain cover after seeing a friend use one on his Canon gear. Glad I bought it and will put it to good use this fall/winter for wildlife photography.

Review of VG Nylon Camera Case (Green) for Canon Powershot S110 / A810
List Price: $26.99
Sale Price: $8.95
Today's Bonus: 67% Off
My camera is a bit larger than most point and shoots, so I liked that this case was larger than most so my camera would fit. The case has a hard interior, which is good for protection. I do wish there would have been a picture of the interior, as it wasn't quick what I expected. One side has a mesh pocket, and the other side has a velcro fastener. Not my favorite, but it will do.

Reviews of Lowepro Pro Mag 2 AW Camera Bag (Black)
List Price: $181.99
Sale Price: $139.99
Today's Bonus: 23% Off
I have been searching for a good camera bag for awhile now. Not only a decent size but comfortable and for me this bag works. On a recent trip to the Zoo I took with me my camera Canon 30D w/battery grip, 24-70mm 2.8L w/hood reversed, 70-200mm 2.8 w/hood reversed, 1.4X & 2.0X teleconverter, spare batteries, spare memory card, blower, monopod and water bottle and a few other items. The strap never "hurt" my shoulders (at times I would switch when one got tired). Access to needed equipement was fast and easy. When I put the bag down it stayed up-right and there was room for more if I wanted. I have learned that hard way to properly plan and to carry only what you need on plan on using, but sometimes you must be prepared for the unexpected. For me this bag fits the bill. Originally I was stuck on trying out the Sling style bags, Tamerac velocity 7 & 9. I quickly out grew the velocity 7 once I got the battery grip and the 9 was just too uncomfortable for me once I started adding more gear no matter how I tried adjusting the strap(s) and you can only where them one way. In addition I like the fact of the weather proctection build in! I don't have to worry about carrying a plastic bag big enough to cover everything (just in case but if you only shoot indoors this wouldn't be a issue for you). This bag has a cover neatly hidden away.
I my opinion it is a welcome a great addition, one that will stay with me for a long time...

I've used a lot of different bags over the years and this is my favorite for travel and location shooting. It sits very well on the shoulder, never slipping.There is plenty of room. I pack a 5D with mongo lens, two 580EXII's in their cases, a 50mm, a 17-40 L wide angle and a 28-135 telephoto. The side compartment gobbles up plenty of extra batteries, filters, cards, etc.
When traveling it unpacks easily for security to inspect.
Buy this bag. It's great!

The Pro Mag 2 AW will hold a 70-200mm lens vertically and has room to add a full size DSLR and 3-4 additional lenses. The exterior front pocket is large enough to hold two flash in the SB800/580EX size range and it has an interior set of pockets, one large one that is zippered and an another zippered clear pocket on the lid. It is as small a bag as you will find to hold a full size DSLR and and a full set of lenses. The zippered pockets are perfect for small items and the other interior pockets are excellent for filter cases or other accessories.The case is well made though the interior on mine has separated as the lining material is not as tough as it should be for a camera bag. The two buckles are good for quickly attaching the lid but the design is one that unless the zipper is used to seal the bag there is a large gap for dust and dirt to get inside. This is not a good bag choice for use in areas where there might be windblown dirt or sand as this bag will not keep it out while in use.
There are two straps on the bottom which do an excellent job of securing a small tripod (like the Cullman 1002) where it is out of the way but readily accessible something very rarely found on camera bags other than the backpack and roller types. The belt strap is not that good but it is easily replaced with a wider one and the belt loops are very convenient. With a good waist strap most of the weight is carried by the hips and this is much easier on the should when using the bag full loaded (easily can be 12-15 pounds).
The lid design is the only serious flaw but one that limits my use of the bag to urban settings. For outdoor use there are better bags with large flaps but the ones from LowePro lack waist straps or even belt loops so I usually buy one from another company.
Honest reviews on Lowepro Pro Mag 2 AW Camera Bag (Black)
The Lowepro Pro Mag 2 AW, belying its compact size, holds a Nikon D700 body with grip and 24-70 f/2.8 attached, plus a 35mm f/2, an 85mm f/1.8, a Lensbaby Composer, a 70-200 f/2.8 VRII, a 16mm f/2.8 fisheye, a flashbracket and SC-29 cord, two SB-800 speedlights, plus spare batteries, CF cards, a tripod plate, and a cable release.A Lowepro bottle attachment (sold separately) helps keep you hydrated.
An elastic rain cover is built in and cleverly sewn into a back pocket so that you won't lose it and can swiftly position it over the bag. The zippers and the whole construction look well-done and sturdy, though the zippers are not the virtually water-proof kind like those found on my Tenba Shootout rolling backpack. Then again, a nice luggage label is attached, an essential accessory missing from all other photo bags I've ever bought, the Tenba included.
I don't think very highly of the loops in the lower front of the Lowepro bag. They are supposedly designed to hold a smallish tripod lengthwise. The bag's width is modest, however, and any decent tripod would stick out awkwardly on each end. I tried inserting a couple of compact Manfrotto Nano stands and one or two shoot-through umbrellas through the loops -same effect, and cumbersome to do besides. The loops would work much faster if they featured pinch-and-snap buckles. As it is, I removed the loops altogether. The same goes for the belt to secure the bag around your waist. I don't see the point. Best give the bag a little bit of room to move/shift as you walk, otherwise it'll slow you down.
The Lowepro bag received the thumbs-up in my personal and purely subjective shootout between it and the Tamrac Ultra Pro 11. For my taste, the Tamrac is too big and heavy when loaded up (though it is the way to go if you're packing two bodies and need an even bigger arsenal of lenses at your beck and call. The Tamrac, in addition to a second D700 with a 50mm f/1.4 lens, also holds the 14-24 f/2.8 plus a 70-300 telezoom. Nice, but that combination proved just too unwieldy, and I don't think my back could take it day in day out.) For my money, the Lowepro Pro Mag 2 AW offers the best compromise between roominess, portability, and flexibility. Recommended.

This bag is wonderful! Holds my 40D,10-22mm,18-200mm,100-400mm Canon lenses and still has room for extra batteries,memory cards,remote release,lens shades for all 3 lenses and filters of 77 and 72 mm.Go buy one if you need most of your equipment with as I do. I'll be looking at a Lowepro back pack of some discription in the future.
It's made extreamly well,protects your equipment and is easy to shoulder around.
