Buying Guide: Different destinations, different bags

By Mason Resnick

November 14, 2012

So, you’re getting ready to take a big trip, and want to bring your camera gear. What should you put it all in? It depends!


How much camera gear to bring with you on whatever journey you are taking is an important issue—but what do you put it in?


The answer to that question depends on the answers to several other questions: Are you flying? Hiking? Walking through a crowded city where there might be pickpockets? Are you an aspiring photojournalist? Want to blend in and work inconspicuously? There are different bags for different kinds of journeys and destinations.


In general, don’t buy too much bag, but get one that will accommodate a little more than what you have. This will give you more options as you expand your system, or can provide room for non-photographic doo-dads like snacks, a change of clothes, etc.
