As of now I just throw my camera in a cheap nike bag (http://www.suplay.com/mmSUPLAY/Images/s87GS_400.jpg). There is generally nothing else in the bag. I want to get a protective pouch or bag for the camera. Any ideas? Maybe a domke pouch? I want something small. I like being able to take out my camera and hide it whenever I need.

I can't find a link to it but there is 'camera armour'. I tried it on a colleague's camera and found it a p.i.t.a. but he assured me you get used to it.

I'm not really fond of the camera armor. I was actually thinking of using t-shirts as cushions =). I was leaning toward the lowepro nova bags.

Add some Domke inserts to your Nike bag. Or just get a nice Domke bag.

I started looking and it seems that anything 6 inches wouldn't fit so I was looking into the crumplers. I think I'm going to swing by B&H today and see what they have.

I don't have one of these, but I've considered getting one for times when I just want to pop my camera in any bag. Might be worth looking at:

Crown Royal bag. Plus you get a great whiskey to drink when you get home.

I actually do this when taking my camera somewhere in a bag other than my normal camera bag!

I thought I was the only one! They're a great size.

Crown Royal bag is a great idea and a good reason to explain to the wife why I got the bottle :)

I also use the Domke wraps that Wilt mentions for all matter of camera accessories. I just use a plain old backpack and wrap up everything inside. Quick, easy, protected and doesn't scream camera bag.
