Leather Camera Cases, Bags & Covers with Strap

Choosing the Right Leather Camera Bag with a Strap

Photography is just a hobby for you, but you still need somewhere to stash your camera, lenses, backup batteries, and chargers when you're heading out for a photo shoot. To that end, a leather camera bag not only looks professional, but it offers enough room to hold your device along with peripherals and accessories.

What Are Some Types of Camera Bags?

You may not realize it, but there is a variety of types of camera bags to select from, and you can choose one based on how much storage space you need and/or based on how you wish to carry your specific camera case.

• You carry a backpack on your back via two straps that are usually padded for comfort, which evenly distributes the weight of your equipment across your body. This prevents you from being too weighed down, especially when you're carrying heavier equipment like a tripod.
• Choose a smaller shoulder bag that you can adjust to carry it over your shoulder or across your body like a messenger bag.
• Another type to consider when all you require is a space to keep your camera from getting scratched or damaged is a small pouch.

What Features Do Bags Offer?

Whether you choose a handcrafted design or a manufactured one, every type of camera storage has features that make snapping shots on the go a cinch.

• Built-in pockets and compartments let you store, organize, and separate accessories. Some may even have exterior and interior pockets and pouches for added storage.
• Padded, adjustable straps make carrying your device less difficult since you can customize the way your leather camera bag fits your body.
• Magnetic, zip, or snap closures ensure that everything you're carrying inside the case stays inside no matter how bumpy the ride to your destination might be.

Which Brands Make Leather Camera Cases?

When you've zeroed in on a case type or some features that have piqued your interest, think about brands and colors.

• Fujufilm makes cases that are compatible with its own lines of cameras, and when you buy a bag for your instant camera, you'll see that there's a special pocket inside for your developed images. These range from basic black to patterned, colored, or printed with designs like faux marble.
• Grab a basic Sony case that holds your Cyber-shot in place and has a long strap that you can sling around your neck or shoulders to keep your hands free.
• An oversized Leica bag gives you plenty of room for your Leica camera as long as your flashes, lenses, filters, and other accessories, so you have everything you need for a shoot whether you're down the street or in another country snapping shots.
