Re: Interesting "hybrid" (3-way) photo bag

Yep, you've got what I am looking for. I wish this was sold in the US, so that I can see it in person in a store, or at least order from Amazon and return in case I didn't like it. That's why I am curious if anybody has seen similar designs from other brands. Igor Sat Apr 28 15:30:43 EDT

The Lower Prorunner 350AW is my travel bag. 70-200/2.8 on one side, 15-30 in the middle below the K-1+24-70/2.8. Spare body next to the 15-30, remaining room in the main compartment for spare batteries, chargers, whatever. Back pocket for iPad and paper files (I used to carry a 13” laptop

Re: Interesting "hybrid" (3-way) photo bag

I'm a bit skeptical of these sorts of things.  When I was doing a lot of work travel I got a convertible travel bag, that could be worn like a backpack, but could also be carried like a suitcase. It wasn't really good at either, though it made a better backpack than suitcase. The design of

Re: Interesting "hybrid" (3-way) photo bag

I absolutely love my fastpak 350 for my aps gear, but it hasn't worked so well for my K-1. I just had an errand in sf around the corner from Samy's and while in there I looked at bags. They have the tenba shootout 24l which seems very nice, but it is just too small to carry my monopod inside,

Maybe. But I look at it as using the right tool for the right job. I have different bags for different purposes: 1. Local travel (by car), with lots of options (2 bodies, many lenses). 2. Air-travel (1 body with 2 zooms and 2-4 primes). and some variations of those... E.g. I had different bags

Interesting "hybrid" (3-way) photo bag

I came across an interesting photo bag. It's a hybrid of a shoulder bag and a backpack: https://www.manfrotto.co.uk/ng-australia-3way-camera-bag-for-dslr It looks like it was launched about a year ago. Unfortunately, it is still not available for sale in the US (except for eBay, where it
