Carrying Bag for S3 IS

[ValerieBrooklyn]

We're heading on vacation this week with our S3 IS but are having issues trying to find a carrying bag. Of course it has to have cushioning but we also want something large enough to fit the camera, as well as, lenses and batteries. The other stipulation is we'd like something with a strap long enough so we can wear across the body so we're not stuck carrying in our hands or on our shoulders. I'm in NYC - any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! :)

Check out M-rock camera bags. They sound like they would work well for you. You can read an earlier post I made about them at http://www.dcresource.com/forums/showpost.php?p=187663&postcount=16

The easiest thing would be to just stop in B&H as they have just about every bag out on the floor. Being local we've got a great luxury. They'll even pull the camera / lenses/ batteries that you will want to use and let you see how it will fit in the bag and how it feels to wear.

I haven't seen one yet but I'm considering one of these, http://www.tamrac.com/f_velocity.htm especially the Velocity 7 sling pack.

Thanks for all of your help. I work right near B&H and plan on going there tomorrow....we just wanted to get a jump start this weekend in Jersey.
Have a great Sunday! :D

We ended up buying the Tamrac 5510 which just fits the S3, one lens, converter and hood. It's tight but fits well. I would have like the one up or the 5501 but my boyfriend wanted something smaller. The only thing is the strap was just okay - we may look for a new one. Since it clips off we could use it for multiple things while away. ;)

Was most interested in the Tamrac Velocity 7 but ended up getting a LowePro Slingshot 100 AW...more info at http://www.lowepro.com/Products/Sling_Bags/Designed_for_Digital/SlingShot_100_AW.aspx. Can carry the S3IS with lens adaptor attached or my Oly CZ-2100, 2 extra lenses, room for extra batteries and charger, memory cards, slots for tripod or other gear ???? and still have some room for whatever. Kinda pricy....but my back is worth it.
