My Camera bags

For me, a camera bag is more than simply a way to carry equipment. It is an essential part of my workflow, keeping everything organised, protected and immediately accessible when the moment demands it.

I regularly get asked questions about my photography gear. That is the reason I’ve compiled a list of my photography bags. I don’t usually emphasize the gear aspect of my photography, but I hope this is helpful to someone. I am not sponsored. All my gear was acquired with my own funds.

The way I work — and the gear I need — changes considerably between street photography, professional assignments and sports photography. That is why I prefer a different bag for each situation. There is no single perfect camera bag for everything.

Choosing a camera bag is a very personal thing. You have to try it on to see if it fits not only your body but your needs. A bag for a street photographer is very different than one that a sports photographer might use. Just like choosing a camera or lens, the best bag is the one that fits the way you are going to photograph that day.

The Think Tank Glass Limo is my dedicated solution for carrying a long telephoto setup without unnecessary bulk. I mainly use it for my Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L, often with a teleconverter and camera body already attached. This allows me to arrive at a location with the complete combination ready for action—an important advantage when working along a race circuit or covering fast-moving sports.

Its slim backpack design keeps the weight close to my body while leaving my hands free for other equipment. For me, the Glass Limo is not simply about carrying gear. It is about staying mobile, organised and ready when the decisive moment appears.

Bellroy Venture Camera Sling

For street photography, I want a camera bag that feels less like equipment and more like a natural part of the way I move through a city. The Bellroy Venture Camera Sling 10L fits that philosophy perfectly, combining a compact and understated design with enough space for a camera body, a couple of lenses and essential accessories.

I particularly appreciate how quickly I can swing the bag from my back to the front, giving me immediate access to my camera when an unexpected photographic opportunity appears. Its discreet appearance also helps me move naturally through busy streets and unfamiliar neighbourhoods without drawing unnecessary attention to my equipment.

Comfort is equally important, especially when I am walking and photographing for several hours at a time, and the close-fitting design keeps the bag comfortable and stable as I move. At the same time, its padded interior provides the protection my equipment needs without making the bag unnecessarily bulky or heavy.

For me, the Bellroy Venture Camera Sling 10L is more than a practical camera bag — it is a quiet companion that gives me the freedom to explore, observe and always be ready when an ordinary moment suddenly becomes a photograph.
