Hi all,

Just got myself a 450D (2nd hand) and looking at getting a small bag to put it in and go out and about with.

Being a cheapskate (:suspect:) I dont really want to spend more than say, £20 but the cheaper the better, but at the same time, I want something that will protect the camera.

Having a quick look around, I'm thinking something along the lines of Hama Track Pack 110 which I've found the cheapest from 7dayshop for only £6.99 delivered.

I cant tell whether the inside is padded or whatnot, so would like to put it to the forum as to what others you would recommend.

Also like the "official" EOS bags but cant tell if they are genuine or not.

It will only be used with the standard 18-55 lens- although I'm hoping to get a 18-200 lens in the very near future but only one len on the camera- and maybe a space for a nifty fifty? (although space for nifty not essential)

Kind regards

Gary
 
I bought a Crumpler Pretty Boy 3000 for £15 on ebay, it was 'second hand' even though it still had the tags on. The Pretty Boy 3000 is large enough for me to fit my 450D with an 18-50 F2.8 on, with my 55-250mm IS, and flash gun on the side. There is also a smaller pocket where I can fit a 72mm circular polariser in its case, spare batteries and spare SD card in a case.
 
If you have access to the classifides, put a 'wanted' add in there. I may have something suitable, (and cheap!)
 
I had the Lowepro Nova Mini when I first started out but I didn't really like it.. it felt too 'blocky'.

Crumpler have brilliant bags. I'm thinking of getting a Jimmy Bo for when I want to take just my camera which is about £20.
For something bigger I have the Muffin Top 7500.
 
Thanks Mark,

I saw the Nova 160 on HUKD this morning and been debating whether or not to get it and then after lunch, thought **** it and just bought it.

The 160 will be future-proof in that I can put additional lens with the bag, however, I think I would still like a small one like the Hama so I can just take the camera with a len out and about as oppose to "lugging" the Nova about.
 
should have gone to aldi they still have their cheap but ok bags left
 
Any link skiwhiz?

Theres an aldi close to work so could pop in over lunchtime and have a looky
