Take a look at the Billingham Line. I think they are available from B&H. The best bag out there, but a bit over
your budget.

Thanx for the help!

I need a good camera bag for 2 DSLR's, 2 lenses, speedlite, tripod and a few other speed lite accessories and my batteries, ND filters, cards etc. I want one that is not going to break the bank. So not more than about $100-$150 if it is possible. I don't care about name brands, I just want a bag to handle it all. I will be carrying it on a flight in the overhead bin, so it can't be any bigger than carry-on size. Any suggestions will be so much appreciated!


Tres,
Just last week I got a Manfrotto Advanced Travel Backpack from B&H. They come in black, blue, brown and grey. I got the grey one because it was on sale for $119.95, vs the others which were $149.95. It's a great bag, I love the grey colour, it qualifies for carry-on, and I think it should fill the needs you describe. And it still appears to be on sale! Here's a link:

I have used LowePro for many years and I have yet to wear one out. My wife is not happy with my persent LowePro Off Road (she doesn't like how it looks; that's my excuse for getting a new one). I have been looking at both LowePro and Manfrotto. Right now I am leaning towards the LowePro Magnum 200 AW. But my choice is based on my Olympus 4/3rds system, not a full frame or APS-C. In your case, if you look at LowePro, you might want to look at the Magnum 400 AW or the Magnum 650 AW. The the 200 meets personal carry-on requirements and the 400 and 650 meet the carry-on requirements.

One of the best ways to see what is available is to go to Adorama or B&H Photo Video and pull up camera bags. And be sure to screen the bags for carry-on and cost.

If you could stretch your budget a little I heartily recommend Lowepro Magnum 200 AW. This bag is of high quality materials. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/650510-REG/Lowepro_LP36053_PEU_Magnum_200_AW_Shoulder.html


Another post suggested this, must be something to it! Thanks

Check out APE Cases on Amazon. They come in 3 sizes ( I use all 3) would suggest mid size for your application. Well padded and easily configured. Also has straps and zipper hardware to keep main body secure. All are under $120.00. Best cases I have ever used!

I have the Lowepro Magnum 200. The Lowepro Magnum series shoulder bags are the strongest bags I have ever handled. It has a one-piece molded bottom that can take a lot of weight and won't sag like most shoulder bags. The sides are very strong also and will protect the gear inside. The Magnum 200 is a fairly large bag. The 400 and 650 are even larger.

Several have suggested this bag. I am looking at it to purchase, but now I am in no rush. I happened across a bag, at my building supply store, that I did not know we had. Ends up we have several of them, Guess I need to check our inventory a little closer. It is just like one that Bob posted the picture of, but bigger. Had all the survival stuff in it too, haha. So I am going to use it for the upcoming trip, but will purchase another one soon. Still meets carry-on requirements! I want one that is made for camera's, so I will have the padded compartments inside. So the Lowepro Magnum looks like a good one. Will let everyone know what I end up with. Thanks for the help!

I would suggest Amazon Basics for an inexpensive backpack style bag. I looked at many other more expensive bags like Think Tank, Lowepro, Tamrac and really liked the Think Tank Airport but found the amazon bag meets my needs for $40 vs $200 or more. There are lots of nice bags out there just depends on how much you want to spend. AmazonBasics DSLR and Laptop Backpack - Orange interior


Thank you for the info! I am looking at everyone's suggestions and weighing my options!
