Nice bag, but it’s covered in logos! Every zipper, all over the thing. If I’m gonna pay nearly $200 usd for a bag, I don’t think I should also be a walking advertisement for Boda!

Under printing options for printer, it seems that you can add an Epson only. I am talking about where you scroll down, under the Print menu, and at the bottom you will find, “Color Managed by Printer.” If you arrow down under that, for more options, where it reads: “other,” you will find types of Epson printers, but only if you have downloaded an Epson printer onto you system. I would like the option of a HP printer, but it’s not on the list. Do you know how I can add this?
Thanks

Just wanted to post a note saying that I just received my Boda Dry and it is a pretty amazing bag. Surprisingly I can actually put my 18-200, 12-24 and my D200 with the 70-200 attached to it all zipped inside. It is not a very secure travel system but it is useful to note that you can store your body in there if you need to stash it for a while.

Thanks for the post Matt, found the bag through your site and couldn’t be happier.

Interesting looking bag. I’m going to look at all the options mentioned on your blog. I’m looking for something to help me keep my lenses together but give me simple ease of access. I have the Shoot Sac mentioned by Lori and although it does keep your stuff together and easily accessible, you have to balance everything in there very carefully and if you have a 70-200 lens and a flash and another lens, the strap eventually cuts into you. I’ve been trying to work out something to relieve that but the architecture of the hardware on the strap doesn’t lend itself to slipping anything over it. It is very maneuverable though.

BTW: A while back Matt (or someone) mentioned a good piece of software to use to build slideshows since Lightroom doesn’t seem to have that down to a science yet. Recommendations?

I use a `backpack’ while walking but clip a small camera bag to the waist belt. I can access the waist belt while walking for quick shots, but the rest of my gear is available for more serious shots - eg change lenses or pano head or filters.

I have to put in a plug for Shoot Sac http://www.shootsac.com because it’s been a fantastic lens bag in situations as varied as family portraits to weddings and rock concerts. Love it!

Similar to Nathan’s experience as posted above, I have a Loweprowe Slingshot 300 and love it. It is easy to carry as a backpack and easily holds a camera with a fairly long lens, attached, plus two other lenses and two flashes, with space for various miscellaneous gear. When accessing contents, it slings around and let’s one easily change lenses.

Too bad it didn’t have room for your laptop… ;-p
