    • AR-15 maybe?monNom

    • Just going to get an Eastpak all other stuff is expensive useless shit
      ********
    • I've got one of these leather everready cases for a smaller eos-m system. Works great. Flip down the flap, shoot, flap back up, stowed. https://www.megagear…monNom
    • I keep a uv filter on lens so I don't need a cap.monNom
    • ^that's a pro move bro'

    • What kinda protection you talking about? Rubber?pango
    • You mean a bag? Find a weatherproof sling. Nothing about that is weather/waterproof.garbage

    • Their shit is overpriced, but sleek? Maybe a good starting point. Hiding a Tamron is like hiding a boner in church lol.garbage
    • My daily is a rock, so for the past year or so I've just used this: https://www.uniqlo.c…garbage
    • And as for filters as protection, I'd say nah to UV and yah to variable ND. You guys bring out the photo dork in me.garbage
    • I got a second hand eastpak for 10 euros, I can pad the inside if I want
      ********
    • The Tamron and the Canon got it for 240 euros in ebay, in the original box with all accessories plus small SD card and spare batterie.

    • @pango, rubber is gay
      ********
    • @garbage, why a UV protection, what's the use of that ?
      ********
    • UV filter for preventing accidental scratches to the glass.pango
    • that peak design's everyday sling is pretty nice. and yes, cheaper options are out there.pango
    • this one is not bad

    • Could you point me to a UV filter for the Tamron on ebay for ex. ?
      ********
    • well... im not sure what brand you gonna end up with on ebay. just look for 62mm UV filterpango
    • okay, thanks
      ********
    • Yeah, if it was a prime I'd say a variable ND, but a UV is fine for that lens. And Domke wraps, if you're really heavy on protection.garbage

    • If I'm going one camera, one lens, it goes in the sling with that around it.garbage
    • ^ I just use Domke wraps for my cameras, the velcro holds them nice and tight. Wrap them up and throw them in my bag. Doing it for years, no problems.face_melter
    • I absolutely hate carrying extra kit, so I have never had a 'proper' camera loadout bag. Just my rucksack and the Domke's.face_melter
    • Uv filter so you can just clean your lens with your t-shirt when it gets dirty. Once you've scratched up the filter glass, replace with a new one and repeat.monNom
    • @pango, it's 72mm
      ********
    • Oh shit you're right.pango
