Stealth Camera Carrying

[1KW]

the fuji xe1 is nice for travel

I had a couple Luigi half-cases for my Leica D-Luxes. They made the cameras look old school and people often commented on the case rather than the camera. He makes beautiful half and full cases for the M9. I thought about getting one for my Sony RX1, but have decided to just wear it with a neck strap as is.

Probaby the best safeguard is insurance.

On my recent trip to Paris I carried a small Timbuk2 messenger bag with a photo insert that didn't scream "steal me" and carried my Olympus OMD-EM5, 4 lenses, and whatever else I wanted. After lugging larger cameras and lenses most of my life, its been a delight to "downsize" to the Olympus (which has some of the best lenses out there). With one lens I can even throw it in a large jacket pocket. It also is capable of taking great photographs.

My Leica M9 is so beat up looking nobody pays attention to it. I just carry it around on a sling strap.

I did a quick scan of your fingerprints and I believe that you are someone our police department has been looking for for a long time.

Please send the name you are now using and your current address and I will have someone from our office visit you.

Over and over I keep hearing about the Think Tank Retrospect series bags for stealthy carrying of a lot of equipment.

I own a couple of Think Tank bags and they are excellent - but I plan to order the Retrospect 5 for my Fuji X series camera and lenses.

And, for a small DSLR kit, the larger Retrospect 7 seems to be a perfect solution.

A moderate size back pack serves me well. Multiple compartments handle everything; camera, lenses, laptop if necessary, water, light rain shell, etc. Room to spare for unexpected needs too! Totally inconspicuous- no different than what almost every student carries.

Those think tank bags look pretty low key to me....

Taping up my camera would seem overkill. When it's out i guess people will know what it is but most of the time I just wish to carry it around in a bag without drawing unnecessary attention to it. I have quite a few bags from Lowepros to Billinghams, Golla and crumpler..
