I need a Camera Back Pack…

I have been toying with the idea of getting a new back pack specifically for my digital SLR camera. I have a traditional camera bag that came with the package deal when I bought my camera. I don’t really like it because it just lays on my shoulder. I would love to have a camera bag that is more like a backpack and less like a camera bag. Backpacks however do not have camera bag type compartments.

I found a pretty sweet set of camera bags online however. These are from Naneu Pro and are some high quality bags. They are referred to as ‘Military Ops’ bags because they are made from high grade water-resistant 900D rip-stop nylon and have heavy duty zippers. There are many designs to choose from and they all look great. I just want a simple bag that will hold all of my equipment. I want to start doing more professional type photography and need the gear with me and easy to access.

The bag I really like is called the Bravo, remember ‘Military Ops’. This bag comes in black or green. Black will be my choice of course. The bag includes a customizable camera insert that you can rearrange to fit all of your equipment. The bag is also padded and has many pockets for additional accessories. I am excited to learn more about this bag and possibly buy one.

And with all my travel around the country a backpack makes much more sense than a traditional camera bag. A backpack would be easier to get around with.

Gear: Bike Helmets

When I was a kid we did not have bike helmets. We would slam on our front brakes of our 3 speed bikes and go ass over teakettle onto the pavement. Heck I was hit by a car when I was 11 years old. I had an old banana seat bike that I road everywhere on the Cape. I still have the front wheel of the bike. It was traumatic but not nearly as traumatic as this story.


Bike helmet crushed, but head fine

All I can say is holy crap. I cannot imagine having a truck run over your head and survive it. I guess bike helmets work.

I wear one now. Not because of the story, I’ve been wearing one for a while, probably after they started looking more sleek and less geek.
