Bag Question

[Mnchknbrat1982]

I'm going to going to the world in September. Well I've heard how everyone recommends the Travelon messenger bags. My question is this. I have a dslr and pocket camera would this bag be big enough for my slr and say a lense? Along with a few other things I may bring with me.

I am interested in the responses to this question, too. I am debating whether to carry a messenger bag large enough to hold my camera or a camera bag with enough room for the other things I want to carry with me.

Not familiar with that particular bag, but I own a DSLR and a couple of lenses, and I have used several different messenger style bags, all of which fit my DSLR and largest lens with room to spare for other things.

I found one I am going to try out in hopes it works. I had to order it as my local best buy didn't have it in stock.

I figured that the DSLR might get ruined in the bag with all the other stuff in there, so I bought a Case Logic holster for it that I can put a belt through it and wear it around my waist. I think it was only about $12 from ebags after the google checkout discount.

I just purchased a Travelon bag from QVC and love it. Go to: www.qvc.com and type in F00142.

It is very roomy. I heard some people who were concerned with the magnetic closure but I've had my credit cards in the holders and had no problems using them. This is a very roomy bag and holds my camera perfectly in the center.

I also like that I can strap it around the front and be hands free with nothing hanging off the back of my shoulder.

Be careful with the magnetic closures! They can zap your memory cards in your camera. I've had it happen to me.
