Re: I'm NOT done buying camera bags

Good topic!  Bag acquisition seems to be a common trait for camera enthusiasts.  Throughout the decades that comprised my SLR film days, I only had a single camera bag.

My time with digital cameras is another story as I would have trouble estimating the number of cameras and camera bags that have passed through my possession.  Without an inventory, I can't cite the number of my current camera bags but I am pretty sure that it is less than 20.  Among my most used bags are four ThinkTank Mirrorless Mover i30s, which I use for camera storage (2 or 3 cameras per bag).  I like the Domke F-5XB for compact camera/lens kits and have 3 of these bags).

I have two Domke bags that I use for accessory storage, the original F2 and the new generation equivalent.  Beginning sometime in the Spring, my wife and I plan to visit local scenic venues for photo opportunities and I will be carrying three tiny cameras in a Domke F-5XB.  For other camera mixes, I have customized a Domke F-3X with a Billingham Small insert.  I also have just ordered a Billingham Small Pro bag that I may use instead.

For non-camera uses, I am using two Tenba bags in our cars for emergency kits.
