Crumpler

Well, despite one of the nastiest websites I’ve seen in a while (so bad I’m not going to even link to it) I’ve just ordered myself a new Crumpler camera bag.

I did get a camera bag along with the new camera for my birthday, but having used it a fair bit, it’s just – well – ungainly. Awkward to get into, a pain in the ass to carry (it’s a bag with a handle, rather than the more helpful straps’n’stuff) and just generally not suited for the stuff I do with cameras. It’s great for use at home, or in the car, but for general walking around it’s not ideal.

So yes, I’ve ordered a new Crumpler bag, bizarrely named (as are all Crumpler bags) the “Formal Lounge”. It’s big enough to hold the camera plus lenses, plus laptop, and still some space for other normal stuff too. It’s going to be interesting, using it and carrying everything around.

A proper review will follow once I’ve used it a while, probably at the end of January, or thereabouts.
