Over the past few months, my photographic arsenal has increased a little and I've come to realise that I need a bigger bag. I've had a Lowepro and a few Crumplers and now I'm contemplating a Billingham or Domke.

My question is, with the forthcoming Focus on Imaging show, is it a good place to get a bag?

I've never been to the show in the past, mostly because Canon isn't showing there, but I might be tempted to go if I can get to feel a new bag before I buy, and get it at a good price.

Your thoughts are appreciated. :)

I can't comment on those specific brands, but I know that there were good discounts to be had for Peli cases on the day, and the Flash Centre had some good deals on most stuff last year.

With it being so close to Focus, I'd say wait for it really, you never know.

Get a rough idea of what you want and then surf some sites to see what price you can get on the web. Then compare the prices at Focus.

Don't buy something just because it's a bargain. Buy what you need. Focus is a great place to compare products and help you make a choice.

Thanks Chappers.

I kind of have an idea of what i want. I'm glad to see Kata might be there, as that was one of my options of purchase as well.
