What type of Camera Bag do you like?

Every photographer needs a camera bag to transport his workhorse around, and there are tons of different bags out there to suit anyone's needs.If you are a professional photographer it is worth investing in a good camera bag so you can keep all of your expensive camera equipment safe when you do a photo shoot. Here we will show you some of the most popular types of camera bags and explain the benefits of each.

Leather camera bags

If you are looking for a camera bag that is not only practical,but stylish too, then you may want to consider purchasing leather camera bags for women. Many leather camera bags are made to look like satchels (which are currently very fashionable) with metal buckle fastenings. The great thing about choosing a leather bag for your camera is that it will last for years and years.Leather is extremely durable and wears well, so even after years of use it will still look fantastic. We particularly love the leather camera bags by retro-inspired brand Grafea. They come in a number of different colour finishes and each have specially designed inserts that will keep both your camera and lens safe whilst you are out on your shoot.

Waterproof camera bags

Most DSLR cameras and lenses are not waterproof, so if you want to prevent poor weather from damaging your expensive equipment, you may want to look into buying a waterproof camera bag. One of the best waterproof camera bags on the market is the Koolertron. This camera bag is completely waterproof and comes in a number of different sizes to suit all types of cameras. The Koolertron also have a number of waterproof pouches for you to store your lenses and other camera accessories.

Camera backpacks / rucksacks

Camera backpacks or rucksacks (depending on what you like to call them) are also very popular with professional photographers. Many people find it much easier to carry camera equipment on their backs when attending a shoot, as it helps to spread the weight and enables them to have their hands free. With so many different types of camera backpacks on the market,it can be hard to know which one to go for. We particularly like the DSLR backpack from camera accessories brand Rigu.

This high quality backpack is available in various different colours and is made from water-repellent 900D nylon. It also comes with a free rain cover to provide extra protection from the elements. If you are thinking of purchasing a camera backpack make sure that it has padded shoulder straps and plenty of zip pockets for you to store all of our camera accessories.

Conclusion

The type of camera bag you choose will come down to personal preference. Whereas some people value the practicality of camera rucksacks, others prefer the aesthetical appearance of leather camera bags. Whatever camera bag you choose, make sure that it has all of the necessary compartments to keep your camera 
equipment safe when you are out and about.
