Hey guys,
I make trips back to MD from Wyoming every now and then. Now that I have a DSLR I'm planning on taking that as carry on for my flight. I have a Canon T2i and an 18-55 and a 70-300 to go with me. I was wondering what kind of bag suggestions you all have for this? I'd like the price to be under $40 or around that price range if possible. Also if it can fit inside my backpack that would be sweet as well. I have a camera bag but it only holds my body with the 18-55 on it. Suggestions? Input? should I maybe do a single lens bag like this?

I would get a hard case if you are going to be doing regular traveling and flying with it. You should be able to find a hard case that will hold all your gear and still be small enough to store under a plane seat, or maybe even cram into a backpack.
You can break out the soft camera bag when you get to your final destination and need to have easier access to the camera. |

I say that because your camera bag shouldn't be something you go cheap with. Having a good bag can save and your equipment and can even have covers to protect from water. If your staying in it for a long time i'd look at getting something bigger..... I only say this because once you start getting more and more gear it's easy to need more space. Just an idea. For $40 i'd get this: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Deluxe-Backpack-200EG-Cameras/dp/B00009R6TA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1311202119&sr=8-2 other wise get this: http://www.amazon.com/Lowepro-Flipside-400-AW-Black/dp/B001APJZ50/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1311202161&sr=1-3 awesome bag. |

I think they make a smaller one that might work even better especially if you don't use a hood on the lens. "Nalgene" pouches as made by most tactical gear companies also work well and they hold the lens in position better. |
