Check out Lowepro bags. I swear by them. Lowepro | Protective camera and video bags
You can always use a shopping bag, but....doesn't look good at all, eh.

I use a modified fag bag that I bought at Bass Pro Shops. I can carry my dslr my film camera, a meter, a flash, 5 rolls of film, various filters and caps, my wallet, and my phone in it. It screams I will knock your @ss out with my purse if you try to snatch it! LOL
That's so funny. We have a Cabellas here where I live. I could always venture over to see what they have. I can't afford a domke or crumpler right now.
I think mine was like 14.95 or something. I took away the plastic belt clip system and sewed the web belts together at the ends it is still just a tiny bit short for my liking (it needs to hang about 3 inches lower) but it works well and I really like it. I have been thinking about making a custom black leather version of it with padded walls bottom and top and a velcro divider.

That's right they have that messenger style bag for about 50 bucks. I was planning on using a paper bag inside of a plastic bag for the handles lol
I have one of the Amazon backpacks when the need to take a lot of gear arises. Otherwise I have a Nikon dslr bag that holds the d7k and two additional lenses and still has room for filters, remotes etc...The Lowepro bag I had been using was way too small. I did however see a really neat one recently that didn't look like a camera bag and was a tan canvas type. Or at least that's what it looked like to me.

I'd suggest any of the Lowepro slings or backpacks. Amazon carries most of them. You can also seek out Lowepro bag reviews on YouTube.

Hot on it. Just busted out the tablet to watch some bag reviews.
No I've not yet seen that one...but I REALLY like that style
When I was looking I didn't see anything like that. However once you purchase one you will see all the wonderful bags you had wished you had seen. That looks like a great bag minus the Canon products lol. Is that a Lowepro?I was actually looking to get away from the "camera bag" look. And that would do it so well. Do you have this one Jack? I am wondering what it holds.No, Tami, I have a backpack type for location shoots (CompuTrekker AW), and a smaller bag for smaller shoots (Nova 4 AW). And for just walking around, I use a National Geographic bag to carry my D40.
I do like the messenger style of bag, though, and I want to get one if the money should ever become available. I need to do a few more shoots.

I need to do a few more shoots. I'm surprised no one has mentioned the Tenba line of messenger bags. These are great bags. They'll last you a lifetime.
I use one as my daily briefcase (laptop, etc).
