Hey fellow D600 owners, any recommendations for gear bags? I carry 3 lenses: a 50, a 20, and a 70-200 f/4. Suggestions of types/brands? Thanks!

I recommend Lowepro. It's light, convenient and good quality. Many friend use this brands. Moreover, theses are many sizes you can choose.

I use a Crumpler. Been pretty happy with their camera bags. Good quality and nice designs.

I'm not sure the size of your Nikon but I run my Canon 60D with kit lens (18mm-135mm), a 50mm f/1.8, Tokina 11mm-16mm f/2.8, few lens hoods, battery charger, cables and a cleaning kit. I'm sure I can run 1 more lens (less than 4" long) in this bag. Also there's a sleeve on the flap which I store my manual in these.

I have a D60 with a Tamron 18-270. I can extend the lens to about 7" and still have room to close the bag.

you have 8" depth, my 60D with a 5 1/2' lens/hood fits perfectly-if your lens is longer, you might want to look for a larger bag-extremely happy with mine-

Yes, I have the D80 and it's great. Hood bonnet? I never looked into that equipment. I also bought the fish eye lens....works great!

The bag can carry one mounted lens and an extra lens.I have a 70-200mm F4.0, which is slimmer but I guess has the same length (needs to be verified!), it fits as the second lens. I can't take it while mounted on the camera.I just tried it again now, just to be sure, I can squeeze it in while mounted, but I don't recommend it as it will most likely damage the zipper.

I ended up going for the Sigma. So far I'm pretty happy with it; focus seems OK on my T1i, and the lens seems quite well put together. Not getting dinged extra for a bag and a lens hood is nice too.

I'm using it with a Nikon D600 (same size as your D7100) and a LOOONG 70-200 f/4 along with a pretty bulky 24-70 f/2.8. I can't recommend the Billingham bags enough, they'll last you a lifetime!

Get the 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR DX Nikkor Zoom Lens with D60. This combo will give you everything you need for a couple years. After that, you will itch for better glass and better camera.D80 is two years old due for replacement very soon. D300 is an exceptional camera that might be too daunting for beginner to learn.

My 850g d600 combined with my Tech SpecsAF-S NIKKOR 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5G ED VR from Nikon at 450g has been very stable at extension. The 5D is 880g. Depending on your lens weight, it shills be fine. If windy, hang something on the hook.

Yes, I fitted my Nikon D90 + 70-200 lens into the bag, but found it restrictive to hold my Nikon SB 600 Flash unit as well, I sold it and bought the next size up from Cameta Cameras NY, this bag is great, it takes my D90 with 18-105 lens + 70-300 lens and still has room for my Nikon SB 600 Flash unit & other small accessories. Also it has 2 roomy side pockets for other accessories.

Yes all three lens will fit.... I carry closeup rings, 18-55, 55-200m, and separate light meter and still have room for misc stuff....... so your finedo note that the bag gets heavy and sometimes slides off the shoulder, but other than that I love the bag. and I would buy another one if I needed it........so go for it.........

I had a D40 before the D60, the D60 is MUCH better, just my personal thoughts 1-Dust, if you live in a dusty environment is a BIG ONE 2-Active D-light, Say good bye to underexposed photos, the camera produces very consistent results, not so with the D40 3-Expeed produced lower noise at higher ISO 4-THE VR Lens is SOOO much worth it, my pictures are always sharp I considered the D80, but... 1-No Active D-light "a big one" 2-more focus points yes, but you can do anything with 3 if you use them well 3-the D80 has a motor, but Nikon will be updating most of this primes to AFS this year, I tried the camera motor its slowwww 4-I was planing to get the D80+50mm 1.4 lens for low light, got the sigma 30mm 1.4 its a much better lens to keep on the camera IMHO 5-Expeed processing on the D60 seems to produce more saturated/vivid pictures vs.. D80 I shoot RAW/convert with capture NX, tried all the options, capture NX is slow and ugly, but it gives you the BEST picture period.

I keep a couple of lenses in my bag. I keep a Tamron 24-70 2.8 on my camera nearly on all the time and it fits in the middle very nicely. I've posted a couple images with a ruler so you get a sense of size and capacity. Overall, I like the bag. However, it is not much good shifting it to the right shoulder. I wished there was a more universal solution. Left shoulder only! http://imgur.com/enE5F05 http://imgur.com/7FGRmKP Good luck!

I love mine. I went to Colorado and had my d7000 w/. 18-55 mm lens, 2 Gary Fong diffusers, 2 ND filters in their cases, AND my windbreaker in the top section, and it was not too hard to zipnit up either. Hope this halos!

The bag is quite small. I carry a Nikon d7100 with an 18-55mm lens and an additional telephoto 55-300mm lens. Hope this helps you in some way.

I prefer the D50 which uses countless AF lenses. The D40-60 must have a motorized lens to AF. I got two D50s and a D60 for under $250 used, body only. Two were refurbished the other one was pristine. Many AF lenses work on the D50 and can be had for $50 or so.
