    Camera Bag

    Advice please for a new camera bag as I seem to be outgrowing my Lowepro Mini Trekker AW Backpack.

    I'll still keep the Trekker for traveling light but do need a backpack with more space but do require something that is comfortable to wear. Any suggestions.

    Thanks

    Martyn:-)

    Lowepro Fastpack 350 is the best bag I've ever had and very comfortable. It's also very competitively priced. Here's an idea of how much it'll hold:

    Another vote for sticking with Lowepro from me too, Martyn.
    I use the Flipside 400 AW and it's a great camera bag. Superbly comfortable to hike with.

    I have a Tamrac Expedition 6 which takes a heck of a lot of gear too.

    Thanks for all your recommendations, particularly the lighter weight options which are at the budget/ super budget end of the scale. I'll check some of these out but will look at them at the Focus Show in March to compare them. I could take the Asda / Farmfoods bags with me as a comparison .

    I'll keep looking for that. A big bag to hold all my stuff is probably ideal with the Trekker for carrying selective items.
    Cheers
