Subject: [Leica] Camera Bag Advice Sought
From: COLBYG@ULV.EDU

Greetings,

	With two M bodies, three lenses and a little flash, it's time to find a
new bag. My equipment is overwhelmed by these big, old bags who are retired
from years of service to the Nikon F's.
	Anyway, I've been looking at the Billingham Alice and Photo Hadley.
They seem a little pricey and ostentatious to me. Alternatively I'm interested
in Domke's F-6 "Little Bit Smaller" bag or the F-803, Camera Satchel. I like
the Domke bags o.k., they're priced better it seems to me, and they're less
attractive. The F-6 is a little too small, really, for the flash and all, and
its top doesn't seem well sealed against the elements.
	I like the Camera Satchel idea (I've never seen one) and wondered
if any LUG members have experience with this bag and might recommend (or not!)
a configuration of inserts for it.
	Any suggestions beyond this are welcome. Sorry if the topic has been
thrashed here before...
	TIA.
