I would like to hear from PF members about what camera bags you like
best. It seems like a simple thing to do - choose a camera bag - but
I've had some I've been disappointed in there are so many to choose
from . . . .
Is there a bag that can safely and easily hold two camera bodies with
lenses and accessories? Those of you who may use camera back packs -
do you find these easier to carry and use?
Opinions? Suggestions?
Thank you in advance.

Marilyn, over the years I tried a lot of bags. I shot a lot of football
and other sports for my university and had to be able to move with at
least two camera bodies, a flash and 4-5 lenses. I settled on two big
bags that I liked. If I knew I had to protect things some I used a
large Tenba with a Domke 4 pocket insert which fit perfectly. If I had
to carry cameras in a hard case and pack a carry bag for the sidelines I
used the big Domke with the same insert. Domkes are canvas and will
fold fairly flat for packing. The Tenba was the bag of choice if I
carried it on. I also recently picked up a Bogen backpack which works
well. Not nearly as big as bulky as the Tamracs which I never found to
my liking.
