While Manfrotto are best known for their tripods, it appears they are expanding their lineup to include LINO branded jackets and camera backpacks. LINO, named after the company’s founder Lino Manfrotto, combines functionality with a stylish Italian design. I am particularly impressed by the functionality of the photo vest. While they may be pricey, they are certainly targeting professional photographers who would most likely use these accessories while on the job.
The Camera Day Pack is another reasonably sized camera bag. It’s also inconspicuous, which make’s it even more appealing. They are currently priced at $60 over at the Photojojo store and come in two colours: purple and blue.
Here’s yet another camera bag which can be used indiscreetly. The “Any Bag” camera bag was designed to be small and portable. It can used on it’s own, or placed within a tote bag or purse for ultimate stealthiness. This bag would work well for those of us who can’t be without our DSLR’s, but would rather not lug an entire backpack around wherever we go.
Finally, a camera bag with some style! (even if it is for the fairer sex). Pompidoo has a line of camera bags specifically designed to look like a modern bag. There is only one style available at this point in time, but you can be sure they will add more in the future. The Cologne bag, shown above, costs €284.99 and comes in the following colours: Festive Red, Cinnamon Brown, Sandy Beige, Apple Green, Persian Peach & Exotic Fuchsia.
What’s up Doc? This camera case, that’s what’s up. Made for 4/3 cameras, and capable of fitting an interchangeable lens, it features a removable cover so your camera can stay nestled inside the cosiness of the case. Obviously not meant for everyone’s taste, but a great gift for a select few photographers.
