Thanks! Most of my travel will be at night along the south side.

kf095 Out buying Wheaties More info | Sep 03, 2019 18:56 | #32 I have Tamrac Rally. It is my everyday bag for something like ten years now. Not a camera bag, but everywhere, everything I need bag. It doesn't scream anything. But it is camera bag inside. DSLR, two lens - no problem. I have Graflex camera in it once with tripod attached on the bag belt, plus film holders, plus water and else.

wyntastr Senior Member More info Post edited over 4 years ago by wyntastr. | Sep 05, 2019 13:53 | #33 Domke bags are pretty inconspicuous. Perhaps something like the F-5XB in one of their ruggedwear finishes, like military green or brown would do the trick. Pretty inexpensive, too. 1D X - 6D - 1D Mk III - Rokinon 8 fisheye - EF 17-40 f/4L - EF 50 f/1.8 Mk I - EF 85 f/1.8 - EF 70-200 f/4L - EF 80-200 f/2.8L Magic Drainpipe - EF 300mm f/2.8 IS L - EF 500mm f/4 IS L - EF 100-400L

lucky7 Goldmember More info Post edited over 4 years ago by lucky7. | Sep 28, 2019 06:30 | #36 I wandered around Tijuana with a Domke F-5xb, Fuji X100F and Minolta XG-1. (X-700 in place of the XG-1) This year I bought a GA645i medium format P&S, so I got the bigger Domke F-5xc. Took that to Mexico City with no issues - climbed a pyramid, took the metro, wandered through neighborhoods, etc. I've rearranged the bag to carry a 6D, 35mm f2 and 135 f2L lens with room to spare. The biggest complaint people have about these bags is the loud velcro, but velcro has a break-in period and doesn't last forever. The tan bag is almost silent now, the green one is still 'new.' I like the canvas Domke bags because they look way more traditional than the shiny bags like the Tenba and peak design stuff (don't like that look at all). It's like comparing an old, trusty pair of boots to some bright green/blue nike shoes or something. I used to carry around my 5D and a couple lenses wandering around Detroit - I would use an old Jansport backpack from college with an insert. I don't travel with camera backpacks anymore though. they're way, way less useful than a shoulder bag, I don't need that much stuff, and I travel with an osprey bag (Farpoint 40) that is my only other piece of luggage. The Farpoint 40 will go in any overhead compartment you can find, and I can strap the Domke bag to my shoulder using the Osprey straps. No bags to check and everything I need fits. As much as I like the idea of having a Billingham bag, they're just too flashy. The Domke bags fly just under the radar.....like I do. Haha. While we're on the subject, I have and still use a Lowepro Photo Classic 300, but it stays in my truck when camping an things like that. I took it on a trip to Europe and immediately got a smaller camera and bag when I got home. I must have a 35mm lens (roughly), so this made the biggest difference for me when traveling. I get way, WAY fewer rejections when I point the little Fuji at someone. Almost none, in fact. -Dane
