Looking for a Camera Bag for K-1 and 15-30, 24-70, and 70-200

dcpropilot · 06-04-2017, 09:22 AM

Could anyone suggest a camera bag that would comfortably fit the K-1, 15-30 DFA, 24-70 DFA, and 70-200 DFA lenses? Thanks

I was constantly trying to find a bag (not a backpack like the suggestion above) that will let me store a camera with the external microphone attached. There are almost no big enough bags for such things lol

After a long long search I've found this:

HAMA Rexton 200
hama.co.uk | 00126630 Hama "Rexton" Camera Bag, 200, black

Clips are in Polish but you can take a look how it looks like etc.

It is big and spacious inside. You can arrange the insides like you want with multiple partition attached with velcro. It is well made too.

This ridiculously large backpack - Google Search should do it, with a little space left for lunch if you are prepared to squeeze it in ;-)

Great find, BarryE -- it looks to be perfect for storing all of my current photo bags in!

I got Manfrotto Light 3N1-35PL, found it to be an excellent backpack for my needs. It fits k-1 with 70-200 attached, and has plenty of space for lenses you mentioned. High quality, plenty of features, very light.

I believe it's called a "truck".

Try looking at the Billingham f/Stop 1.4

This shows it with the K-3 but I believe the K-1 will work too.

You'll find more suggestions in this thread.

I ultimately went with the Vanguard Up-Rise II 38, which is a lot cheaper than most of the bags mentioned here. You wouldn't want to be carrying three big zooms and a K1 for too long in a messenger bag though. For that weight, a backpack is more practical.

Going through available choices in camera bags is akin to shopping for women's shoes.

What type of bag do you want? Messenger, backpack, hiking, sling?

There are just too many options to give advice without knowing what type of bag you are looking for, but once you do I'll be able to help a bit

Right now, I have a Tamrac Expedition 5. I really like it, but need a little more room in a backpack for my FF kit.
