Default Where to get a stylish camera bag for one body one lens?

Hi guys,

Does anyone know where to get a stylish camera bag for one professional body (Canon 5D) and one lens (short lens, like 50mm).... I'm looking for something small and compact, preferably leather material. Something that you will bring out on a date and matches well with your outfit. Something with the charm factor too.



Any recommendations?

Get a billingham. Old world charm

After getting the hadley pro, I have been using it on a daily basis! Look for PK Chan, he's a really nice man.

I bought a leather bag in Zara to use it for my d300. It doesn't look like I'm carrying a camera.

Yeah got my billinghams from him. Nice chap. He delivers to home as well Pretty competitive price but still slightly higher than if you get them from HK.

leather is a bad idea for camera gear, mainly because it will not last in bad weather conditions and you have to keep taking care of it if you want it to not go cui

go for billingham, or domke. if you really want "classy" then go for the former. both do not say "camera bag" loudly though, and i like that.

Alternatively forget about Zara which screams steal me and buy a cheap bag, and then fit in Domke separators for good padding. I bought mine during a trip in Cambodia in the Noh Peng (?) main market for SGD$4. You can change the separators as you change cameras (!) - from 3 compartments to the single adjustable one!

No one knows what you have in there, no one bothers you

I buy the Domke separators from Cathay. Not sure if the rest of the shops sell them.
