Need help on camera bags or cases

[Rockshox]

Going for a 6 months photoshoot trip in the USA this end of March, I would be bringing all my camera's and lenses. 2 Bodies,
16-35, 28-70, 70-200, 300 F2.8, 600mmF4. + 2 tripods with wimberly head.

Will they allow that amount of gear to be hand carried inside the plane?
Which bag to use?

Thanks in advance.

Backpack or slingbag?

 

[Rockshox]

any bag as long as its allowed to be hand carried. I dont want to check in my gear for fear of being damage or lost.

i doubt u can squeeze all ur gear in a LP 400aw... u would probably require a lowepro pro trekker at least... there are dimensions available.. maybe u can give the airline co..a call to check..hope this helps

I was planning to use my Lowepro Commercial AW for all my gears + a duffel bag for the 600mm. So I just check in my Tripods..

Any more suggestions will really help.


Tan131,
I will give them a call. Tnx.

rockshox.. i suggest u check it out with the airline.. cos some airlines restrict each passenger to jus one piece of hand carry lagguage

If u can't squeeze it all into one bag, the answer is no.

Anyway, it's an interesting thing, read Michael Reichmman's passage about packing for his Bangladesh trip to see how a top landscape photographer deals with it.

i heard that with the added security these days, you're going to have to check in your tripod.... i think some airlines view it as a possible weapon

so probably plan your packing along those lines.
