I seem to have pgraded out of my camera bag, it would make sense to have a bag I could get the camera and laptop in. Currently usong a dell xps 1330 does anyone have a crumpler daily l? Do you shove a laptp in it?

Any good?

Sorry about that, maybe a typist and a proof reader whilst we are at it smile

Anyway. I need a new camera back, I would also like to put my laptop in it.
My laptop is a Dell model XPS 1330.
The bag I was thinking about getting is a 'crumpler daily large', I wondered if anyone had one that they shoved a laptop into..

Any better?

I've got a Crumpler Daily XXL with a 30D, 35-350L, 17-40L, 10-22, 50mm 1.8 and a 550EX in it. If I put a laptop in as well, apart from being very full, I doubt I'd be able to walk more than a few yards before needing a sit down. If you're thinking of carrying a lot of kit I'd be inclined towards a rucksack type bag - the Crumpler Daily's can be hard work 'cos it all hangs on one shoulder. However I like it because it's more easily accessible than a rucksack.

I have both a large back and a small laptop, best of both worlds!

I have just read some not so favourable reviews on that.

I get the point about carrying a load of kit, which is one of the reasons I bougtht a smaller laptop. Whatever bag I get I will not be stuffing it with kit, just 40d 70-300mm 50mm and the 17-85mm kit lens, couple of spare batteries...

I currently have a crumpler 'bens pizza' which I like the format of, maybe I should just upgrade to a bigger one, the problem I then have is carry on luggage, I am in monza in sept and need, laptop and camera....

How tricky smile

I've got one of these, or at least a very similar one from the photos. It carries a 30D, 580EX, f1.4 50mm, 10-22 EFS, 300m f4, 1.4x t/c, stacks of gel samples, cables and accessories, PowerShot point and click and has space for a few other bits. It is HUGE when on though. I'd say volume wise, It's near the same as a 55L rucksack. It's also a pain to get items out of due to the secure pocket being behind the back as with all crumpler backpacks. Fine if you can lay it on the ground though.
