Recommend Lens Pouch

itsybitsyspidy · 15th September 2007

Anyone has a good lens pouch to recommend? As i don't have a 2nd body, I would like a lens pouch for me to switch between my Nikon 17-55/F2.8AFS and my 80-200/F2.8AFD. Preferbly can have a waist belt or something for me to "wear" it.

Get a modular system from Lowepro.

Offtrail 2 works for body with grip.
Offtrail 1 for body without grip.

Both sell for less than $50 on the B&S and are about $60-80 new.

by that i mean to say, the belt packs have room for both your camera body with lens attached, and two side pouches which fit lenses. moreover, the pouches can be removed to fit your other bags or for storage.

for some events, i have carried the following in the Offtrail 2:
20D + grip
Speedlite
10-22mm f/3.5-4.5
50mm f/1.4
85mm f/1.8
17-50mm f/2.8
Spare batteries for 20D + speedlite

Moreover, when travelling in London, i stored my lenses in the pouches and put them in my backpack to travel discreetly.
If you asked me, if you could only afford one camera bag - this one would be the most versatile. Does great for outdoors, for events, for the casual outing with friends.
